2 To Begin Selecting a place to work Keeping the computer comfortable Place the computer on a flat surface that is large enough for the computer and any other items you need to use, such as a printer. Leave enough space around the computer and other equipment to give adequate ventilation; otherwise, they may overheat. Make sure your work area is free from: ❖ Dust, moisture, and direct sunlight. ❖ Liquids and corrosive chemicals. CAUTION: If you spill liquid into the computer, turn off the computer, unplug it from the AC power source, and let it dry out completely before turning it on again. If the computer does not operate correctly after you turn it back on, contact your network administrator. ❖ Equipment that generates a strong electromagnetic field, such as large stereo speakers (other than speakers that are connected to the computer) or speakerphones. ❖ Extreme heat, cold, or humidity. Operate the computer within a temperature range of 41 degrees to 95 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees to 35 degrees Celsius) and 20 percent to 80 percent non-condensing humidity. ❖ Rapid changes in temperature or humidity. ❖ Sources of temperature change such as air conditioner vents or heaters.
