WARNING! 
To reduce the possibility of heat-related injuries or of 
overheating the computer, do not place the computer directly on your lap 
or obstruct the computer air vents. Use the computer only on a hard, flat 
surface. Do not allow another hard surface, such as an adjoining optional 
printer, or a soft surface, such as pillows or rugs or clothing, to block airflow. 
Also, do not allow the AC adapter to contact the skin or a soft surface, such 
as pillows or rugs or clothing, during operation. The computer and the AC 
adapter comply with the user-accessible surface temperature limits defined 
by the International Standard for Safety of Information Technology 
Equipment (IEC 60950). 
WARNING! 
To reduce potential safety issues, use only the AC adapter or 
battery provided with the computer, a replacement AC adapter or battery 
provided by HP, or a compatible AC adapter or battery purchased as an 
accessory from HP. 
For more safety and regulatory information, and for battery disposal 
information, refer to the Regulatory, Safety and Environmental Notices. To 
access the notices, select Start > Help and Support > User Guides, or 
refer to the User Guides disc included with some models.
