To prevent possible overheating of the CPU, make sure the cooling fan's air
intake is not blocked. The fan draws in air by creating a vacuum. If the fan is
blocked, it could cause the CPU to run at a lower performance level or cause
the computer to shut down. Loose items such as notebook and tissue paper,
plastic wrappers, or other similar materials can block the air intake,
preventing air from reaching the CPU. Do not use the computer on surfaces
with objects that can be drawn in by the cooling fan.
