• Do not place any objects on top of the Notebook and do not exert
pressure on the display. Otherwise, there is a risk that the display
may break.
• If the screen breaks, there is a danger of injury. If this happens, pick
up the shattered pieces wearing protective gloves and send them
to your service centre for professional disposal. Finally, wash your
hands with soap, as the pieces may have been contaminated with
chemicals.

Exceeding this value may damage the housing or the Notebook.
Always hold the display firmly by the middle when folding it back,
adjusting the position and closing it. Failure to do so may damage
the display. Never use force to open the display.
• To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it with fingers or
sharp objects.
• Never lift the Notebook up by the display as this could break the
hinges.

interior of the Notebook cleaned by your service department or a
specialist at regular intervals.
• Should the below occur, switch the Notebook off immediately/
do not switch the Notebook on, disconnect the mains plug and
contact customer services if

any circumstances.
