TOSHIBA computers are designed to optimize safety, minimize strain and 
withstand the rigors of portability. However, certain precautions should be 
observed to further reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the 
computer.

Be certain to read the general precautions below and to note the cautions 
included in the text of the manual.

Place the computer on a flat surface that is large enough for the computer 
and any other items you are using, such as a printer.

Leave enough space around the computer and other equipment to provide 
adequate ventilation. Otherwise, they may overheat.

To keep your computer in prime operating condition, protect your work area 
from:

■

Dust, moisture, and direct sunlight.

■

Equipment that generates a strong electromagnetic field, such as 
stereo speakers (other than speakers that are connected to the 
computer) or speakerphones.

■

Rapid changes in temperature or humidity and sources of temperature 
change such as air conditioner vents or heaters.

■

Extreme heat, cold, or humidity.

■

Liquids and corrosive chemicals.

Carefully read the Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort. It contains 
information on the prevention of stress injuries to your hands and wrists 
that can be caused by extensive keyboard use. Instruction Manual for 
Safety and Comfort also includes information on work space design,
