General Precautions

TOSHIBA computers are designed to optimise safety, minimise strain and 

withstand the rigors of portability. However, certain precautions should be 

observed to further reduce the risk of personal injury, damage to the 
computer or impared performance.
Be certain to read the general precautions below and to note the cautions 

included in the text of the manual.

Stress injury

Carefully read the Safety Instruction Manual for Safety & Comfort. It 

contains information on prevention of stress injuries to your hands and 

wrists than can be caused by extensive keyboard use. Chapter 3, 

, also includes information on work space design, posture and 

lighting that can help reduce physical stress.

Heat injury

■

Avoid prolonged physical contact with the computer. If the computer is 

used for long periods, its surface can become very warm. While the 

temperature will not feel hot to the touch, if you maintain physical 

contact with the computer for a long time (if you rest the computer on 

your lap, or if you keep your hands on the palm rest, for example) your 

skin might suffer low-heat injury.

■

If the computer has been used for a long time, avoid direct contact with 

the metal plate supporting the I/O ports. It can become hot.

■

The surface of the AC adaptor can become hot when in use. This 

condition does not indicate a malfunction. If you need to transport the 

AC adaptor, disconnect it and let it cool before moving it.

■

Do not lay the AC adaptor on a material that is sensitive to heat. The 

material could be damaged.
