By followingthese important tips, you will get the most use and enjoyment out of yourcomputer.Be Careful about Where and How You WorkDo not leave the base of your computer, or any other part that becomeshot during operation, in contact with your lap or any part of your bodyfor an extended period when the computer is functioning or when thebattery is charging. Your computer dissipates some heat during normaloperation. This heat is a function of the level of system activity andbattery charge level. Extended contact with your body, even throughclothing, could cause discomfort or, eventually, a skin burn.When the AC adapter is connected to an electrical outlet and yourcomputer, it generates heat. Do not place the adapter in contact with anypart of your body while using it. Never use the AC adapter to warmyour body. Extended contact with your body, even through clothing,may cause a skin burn.Route the cables of an AC adapter, a mouse, a keyboard, a printer, or anyother electronic device, or communication lines, so that they cannot bewalked on, tripped over, pinched by your computer or other objects, or inany way subjected to treatment that could disturb the operation of yourcomputer. Applying strong force to the cables may damage or break them.S9-S10 User Guide V1.0_en.book Page 71 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 5:53 PM
72Chapter 6. Safety, Use, and Care InformationPlace liquids away from your computer to avoid spills, and keep yourcomputer away from water (to avoid the danger of electrical shock).Do not eat or smoke over your keyboard. Particles that fall into yourkeyboard can cause damage.Store packing materials safely out of the reach of children to prevent therisk of suffocation from plastic bags.Keep your computer away from magnets, activated cellular phones,electrical appliances, or speakers (within 13 cm or 5 in).Avoid subjecting your computer to extreme temperatures (below 5°C/41°F or above 35°C/95°F).Some appliances, such as certain portable desktop fans or air purifiers,can produce negative ions. If a computer is close to such an appliance,and is exposed for an extended time to air containing negative ions, itmay become electrostatically charged. Such a charge may be dischargedthrough your hands when you touch the keyboard or other parts of thecomputer, or through connectors on I/O devices connected to it. Eventhough this kind of electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the opposite of adischarge from your body or clothing to the computer, it poses the samerisk of a computer malfunction.Your computer is designed and manufactured to minimize any effects ofelectrostatic charge. An electrostatic charge above a certain limit,however, can increase the risk of ESD. Therefore, when using thecomputer close to an appliance that can produce negative ions, givespecial attention to the following:- Avoid directly exposing your computer to the air from an appliancethat can produce negative ions.- Keep your computer and peripherals as far as possible from such anappliance.S9-S10 User Guide V1.0_en.book Page 72 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 5:53 PM
Chapter 6. Safety, Use, and Care Information73- Wherever possible, ground your computer to facilitate safeelectrostatic discharge.Note:Not all such appliances cause a significant electrostatic charge.When you handle options or CRUs, or perform any work inside thecomputer, take the following precautions to avoid static-electricitydamage:- Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to buildup around you.- Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters, memorymodules, and other circuit boards by the edges. Never touch exposedcircuitry.- Prevent others from touching components.- When you install a static-sensitive option or CRU, touch the static-protective package containing the part to a metal expansion-slot coveror other unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least twoseconds. This reduces static electricity in the package and your body.- Whenever possible, remove the static-sensitive part from the static-protective packaging and install the part without setting it down.When this is not possible, place the static-protective packaging on asmooth, level surface and place the part on it.- Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.S9-S10 User Guide V1.0_en.book Page 73 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 5:53 PM

Appliances are labeled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC concerning waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). The Directive determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the European Union. This label is applied to various products to indicate that the product is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end of life per this Directive.Users of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with the WEEE marking per Annex IV of the WEEE Directive must not dispose of end of life EEE as unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to them for the return, recycle, recovery of WEEE and minimize any potential effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to the presence of hazardous substances.

The data on your computer, some of it sensitive, is stored on a storage device called the hard disk. Before you dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer, you need to delete that data.Handing your computer over to someone else without deleting the loaded software, such as operating systems and application software, may even violate License Agreements. You are advised to check the terms and conditions of those Agreements.Deleting the data from the hard disk is not easy.There are methods that seem to delete the data:Move the data to the recycle bin, and then choose the Empty recycle bin command.Use the Delete command.Format your hard disk, using the software for initializing it.S9-S10 User Guide V1.0_en.book Page 117 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 5:53 PM
118Appendix D. NoticesUsing the preinstalled recovery program, bring the hard disk back to factory-ship state.These operations, however, only change the file allocation of the data; they do not delete the data itself. In other words, the data retrieval processing is disabled under an operating system such as Windows. The data is still there, even though it seems to be lost. Thus, it is sometimes possible to read the data by use of special software for data recovery. There is a risk that people of bad faith may read and misuse the critical data on hard disks for unexpected purposes.To prevent the leakage of data, it becomes very important that you take responsibility for deleting all the data from the hard disk when you dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer. You can destroy the data physically by smashing the hard disk with a hammer, or magnetically by means of strong magnetic power, thus making the data unreadable. But we recommend that you make use of the software (payware) or service (pay service) specifically developed for the purpose.S9-S10 User Guide V1.0_en.book Page 118 Wednesday, July 23, 2008 5:53 PM
