Other precautions 
Your computer is designed to optimize safety, minimize 
strain, and withstand the rigors of portability. However, you 
should observe certain precautions to further reduce the risk 
of personal injury or damage to the computer. 
Do not apply heavy pressure to the computer or subject it to 
sharp impacts. Excessive pressure or impact can damage 
computer components or cause your computer to malfunction. 
Some PC Cards can become hot with prolonged use. If two 
cards are installed, both can become hot even if only one is 
used extensively. Overheating of a PC Card can result in errors 
or instability in the PC Card operation. 
Be careful when you remove a PC Card that has been used for 
lengthy periods of time. 
Avoid spilling liquids into the computer’s keyboard.
If you do spill a liquid that gets into the keyboard, turn 
off the computer immediately. Leave the computer turned 
off overnight to let it dry out before you use it again.
Never turn off the computer if a drive light indicates a 
drive is active.
Turning off the computer while it is reading from or 
writing to a disk may damage the disk, the drive, or both.
Keep the computer and disks away from objects that 
generate strong magnetic fields, such as large stereo 
speakers.
Information on disks is stored magnetically. Placing a 
magnet too close to a disk can erase important files.
