This file is a quick reference guide for IBM laptop computers, which introduces safety information, setup, maintenance and other information of the computer.
The manual opens with safety information that warns of electrical hazards and lists precautions such as turning everything off, using grounded outlets, and handling cables with one hand to avoid shock.
It also contains a lithium‑battery notice that requires IBM Part Number 33F8354 or an equivalent battery, handling and disposal instructions, modem safety guidelines, and laser compliance statements for CD‑ROM/DVD‑ROM drives, including a warning not to remove drive covers.
Turn everything off, attach all cables before powering on, and use one hand when handling signal cables.
Only IBM Part Number 33F8354 or an equivalent type battery recommended by the manufacturer should be used.
Do not remove the drive covers because doing so could expose users to hazardous laser radiation.
