SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE SAFETY GUIDELINES In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Blade, we suggest that you adopt the following guidelines:

1. Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to www.razersupport.com for support. Do not attempt to service or fix the device yourself at any time. 3. Do not take apart the device (doing so will void your warranty) and do not attempt to operate it under abnormal current loads. 4. Keep the device away from liquid, humidity or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific temperature range of 0C (32F) to 40C (104F). Should the temperature exceed this range, unplug and switch off the device in order to let the temperature stabilize to an optimal level. COMFORT Research has shown that long periods of repetitive motion, improper positioning of your computer peripherals, incorrect body position, and poor habits may be associated with physical discomfort and injury to nerves, tendons, and muscles. Below are some guidelines to avoid injury and ensure optimum comfort while using your Razer Blade. 1. Position your laptop directly in front of you. If you have an external mouse, position it next to the laptop. Place your elbows next to your side, not too far away and your mouse within easy reach. 2. Adjust the height of your chair and table so that the laptop is at or below elbow height. 3. Keep your feet well supported, posture straight and your shoulders relaxed. 36 | For gamers by gamers 4. During gameplay, relax your wrist and keep it straight. If you do the same tasks with your hands repeatedly, try not to bend, extend or twist your hands for long periods. 5. Do not rest your wrists on hard surfaces for long periods. When using an external mouse, use a wrist rest to support your wrist while gaming. 6. Do not sit in the same position all day. Get up, step away from your desk and do exercises to stretch your arms, shoulders, neck and legs. 7. If you should experience any physical discomfort while using your laptop, such as pain, numbness, or tingling in your hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, neck or back, please consult a qualified medical doctor immediately. BATTERY The Razer Blade contains an internal, lithium-ion polymer rechargeable battery. In general, the life expectancy of such batteries is dependent upon usage. Heavy daily usage use will result in shorter battery life. Casual use will extend battery life. If you suspect that the lithium-ion rechargeable battery inside the Razer Blade may be drained (has a low charge), try charging it. If the battery does not recharge after several attempts, it may be non-operational. Dispose of batteries according to your local environmental laws and guidelines. 37 | razer 7.
