Heat Considerations
The computer’ s processor has been specially designed to consume as little power as possible, and
generates very little heat. However, working in a hot environment, or working for long periods may
raise the temperature. Your computer takes the following steps to lower temperature:
1. The cooling fan is turned on. You may hear the fan and feel air coming from a vent near the left
front of the computer when this happens.
If the temperature continues to rise:
2. Processor activity is reduced. You may notice a slight loss of performance when this happens.
If the computer overheats:
3. The processor will stop functioning and the computer will shutdown.

Battery Calibration application, to restore the battery to maximum performance levels.
To determine if the battery needs to be calibrated, run the Battery Calibration program. The initial screen
