Back Panel Components
Following is a brief description of your LifeBook notebook’s back panel components.
Anti-theft Lock Slot
The anti-theft lock slot allows you to attach an optional physical lock down device.
External Video Port
The external monitor port allows you to connect an external monitor or LCD projector. See “External
Video Port” on page 91.
Air Vents
The air vents allow air to circulate through the system to cool down the components.
TO PROTECT YOUR NOTEBOOK FROM DAMAGE AND TO OPTIMIZE PERFORMANCE, BE SURE TO KEEP ALL
AIR VENTS UNOBSTRUCTED, CLEAN, AND CLEAR OF DEBRIS. THIS MAY REQUIRE PERIODIC CLEANING,
DEPENDING UPON THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH THE SYSTEM IS USED.
D
O NOT OPERATE THE NOTEBOOK IN AREAS WHERE THE AIR VENTS CAN BE OBSTRUCTED, SUCH AS IN
TIGHT ENCLOSURES OR ON SOFT SURFACES LIKE A BED OR CUSHION.
