Chapter 1. Caring for your ThinkPad computer Though your computer is a durable notebook computer that functions reliably in normal work environments, you need to use common sense in handling it. By following these important tips, you will get the most use and enjoyment out of your computer. Important tips . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Be careful about where you work. . . . . Be gentle with your computer. . . . . . . . Carry your computer properly. . . . . . . .
Important tips Be careful about where you work. Do not leave the base of your computer in contact with your lap or any part of your body for an extended period when the computer is functioning or when the battery is charging. Your computer dissipates some heat during normal operation. This heat is a function of the level of system activity and battery charge level. Extended contact with your body, even through clothing, could cause discomfort or, eventually, a skin burn.
Important tips Use a quality carrying case that provides adequate cushion and protection. Do not pack your computer in a tightly packed suitcase or bag. Before moving your computer, be sure to remove any media, turn off attached devices, and disconnect cords and cables. Handle storage media and drives properly. Avoid inserting diskettes at an angle and attaching multiple or loose diskette labels, as these can lodge in the diskette drive.
Important tips Your computer might have both an Ethernet connector and a modem connector. If so, be sure to connect your communication cable to the correct one, so your connector is not damaged. See Access ThinkPad, your on-board help system, for information on the location of these connectors (press the ThinkPad button to open Access ThinkPad). Only an authorized IBM ThinkPad repair technician should disassemble and repair your computer.
Important tips Do not recharge the battery pack until all of its power is used. Recharging a battery pack that is not completely discharged can shorten battery life. Once you start charging the battery pack, do not use it until it is fully charged. Whenever possible, use the ThinkPad battery power-saving modes: – Screen blank – Standby – Hibernation For more information, refer to the online user's guide. Decrease the brightness of the LCD. Use power management.
