General safety guidelines

Always observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury

and property damage.

Service

Do not attempt to service a product yourself unless instructed to do so

by the Customer Support Center. Use only a service provider who is

approved to repair your particular product.

Note: Some parts can be upgraded or replaced by the customer. These

parts are referred to as Customer Replaceable Units, or CRUs.

Lenovo expressly identifies CRUs as such, and provides

documentation with instructions when it is appropriate for

customers to replace those parts. You must closely follow all

instructions when performing such replacements. The Off state of

a power indicator does not necessarily mean that voltage levels

inside a product are zero. Always make sure that the power is

turned off and that the product is unplugged from any power

source before you attempt the replacement. If you have any

questions or concerns, contact the Customer Support Center.

Heat and product ventilation

Computers, ac power adapters, and many accessories can generate heat

when turned on and when batteries are charging. Always follow these

basic precautions:

v Do not leave your computer, ac power adapter, or accessories in

contact with your lap or any part of your body for an extended

period when the products are functioning or when the battery is

charging. Your computer, ac power adapter, and many accessories

produce some heat during normal operation. Extended contact with

the body could cause discomfort or, potentially, a skin burn.

v Do not charge the battery or operate your computer, ac power

adapter, or accessories near flammable materials or in explosive

environments.

v Ventilation slots, fans, and heat sinks are provided with the product

for safety, comfort, and reliable operation. These features might

inadvertently become blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa,

carpet, or other flexible surface. Never block, cover, or disable these

features.
