Be careful when using your computer near a window. Do not scratch the surface of the LCD screen or exert pressure on it. Using your computer in low temperature conditions may produce a residual image on the LCD screen. When the computer returns to normal temperature, the screen returns to normal. A residual image may appear on the LCD screen if the same image is displayed for a long period of time. The residual image disappears after a while. You can use a screen saver to prevent residual images. The LCD screen becomes warm during operation. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. The LCD screen is manufactured using high-precision technology. You may, however, see tiny black points and/or bright points (red, blue, or green) that continuously appear on the LCD screen. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the LCD screen. Do not exert pressure on the LCD screen lid with the lid closed as it may scratch the LCD screen or soil it.
