Care and Maintenance

If you use your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook carefully, you

will increase its life and reliability. This section provides

some tips for looking after the notebook and its devices.

Caring for your LifeBook notebook

■

Your LifeBook notebook is a durable but sensitive elec-

tronic device. Treat it with respect and care.

■

Make a habit of transporting it in a suitable carrying

case.

■

Do not attempt to service the computer yourself.

Always follow installation instructions closely.

■

To protect your notebook from damage and to opti-

mize system performance, be sure to keep all air all

vents unobstructed, clean, and clear of debris. This

may require periodic cleaning, depending upon the

environment in which the system is used.

■

Do not operate the notebook in areas where the air

vents can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or

on soft surfaces like a bed or cushion.

■

Keep it away from food and beverages.

■

If you accidentally spill liquid on your LifeBook note-

book:

1. Turn it off.

2. Position it so that the liquid can run out.

3. Let it dry out for 24 hours, or longer if needed.

4. If your notebook will not boot after it has dried

out, call your support representative.

■

Do not use your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook in a wet

environment (near a bathtub, swimming pool).

■

Always use the AC adapter and batteries that are

approved for your notebook.

■

Avoid exposure to sand, dust and other

environmental hazards.

■

Do not expose your notebook to direct sunlight for long

periods of time as temperatures above 140° F (60° C)

may damage your notebook.

■

Keep the covers closed on the connectors and slots when

they are not in use.

■

Do not put heavy or sharp objects on the computer.

■

If you are carrying your LifeBook notebook in a brief-

case, or any other carrying case, make sure that there are

no objects in the case pressing on the lid.

■

Never position your notebook such that the optical

drive is supporting the weight of the notebook.

■

Do not drop your notebook.

■

Do not touch the screen with any sharp objects.

Cleaning your LifeBook notebook

■

Always disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug, not

the cord.)

■

Clean your LifeBook notebook with a damp, lint-free

cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents.

■

Use a soft cloth to remove dust from the screen.

Never use glass cleaners.

Storing your LifeBook notebook

■

If storing your notebook for a month or longer, turn

your LifeBook notebook off, fully charge the

battery, then remove and store all Lithium ion batteries.

■

Store your notebook and batteries separately. If you

store your LifeBook with a battery installed, the battery

will discharge, and battery life will be reduced. In addi-

tion, a faulty battery might damage your LifeBook.

■

Store your Fujitsu LifeBook in a cool, dry location.

Temperatures should remain between 13ºF (-25ºC) and

140ºF (60ºC).

■

The system contains components that

can be severely damaged by electro-

static discharge (ESD). To minimize risk

to the components, observe the

following precautions:

■

Before docking or undocking your

LifeBook notebook (when using a

port replicator), it is a good practice

to always touch a grounded metal

object to discharge static electricity

built up in your body.

■

Be sure to power down your system

before adding or removing system

components. Even if the system is in

hibernate or standby states, data

could be lost or memory could be

damaged if power is still available to

the system.

■

When installing or removing a

memory module, hold it by the edge

so as not to touch any contacts or

chips. Be careful not to touch any

internal computer terminals or

components; the oil from your fingers

could cause a short to the compo-

nents.

■

Electrical equipment may be hazardous if

misused. Operations of this product or
