This document is for all HP Notebook computers.
HP notebook computers are designed for use in typical office, school or home environments. Under these conditions and following the guidelines in this document, your HP notebook should present no risk to you or its surroundings. However, normal notebook usage generates heat and uses electricity, so proper precautions should be taken into consideration to prevent personal or property injury. This document outlines basic guidelines for proper use of a notebook computer. For more detailed information, please read the Safety and Comfort guide provided with the product and the HP Ergonomics Guide.
While safety is an important concern, you also want to get the most out of your notebook and avoid costly repairs. Following the guidelines and precautions in this document, your HP notebook can provide years of trouble-free operation.
warning:To reduce the possibility of heat-related injuries or of overheating the computer, do not place the computer directly on your lap or obstruct the computer air vents. Use the computer only on a hard, flat surface. Do not allow another hard surface, such as an adjoining optional printer, or a soft surface, such as pillows or rugs or clothing, to block airflow. Also, do not allow the AC adapter to contact the skin or a soft surface, such as pillows or rugs or clothing, during operation. The computer and the AC adapter comply with the user-accessible surface temperature limits defined by the International Standard for Safety of Information Technology Equipment (IEC 60950).
