Safety precautions
Using your Notebook PC
This Notebook PC should only be used in
environments with ambient temperatures
between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F).
Refer to the rating label on the bottom of your
Notebook PC and ensure that your power
adapter complies with this rating.
Your Notebook PC can get warm to hot while in
use or while charging the battery pack. Do not
leave your Notebook PC on your lap or near any
part of your body to prevent injury from heat.
When working on your Notebook PC, do not
place it on surfaces that can block the vents.
Do not use damaged power cords, accessories,
and other peripherals with your Notebook PC.
While powered on, ensure that you do not carry
or cover your Notebook PC with any materials
that can reduce air circulation.
Do not place your Notebook PC on uneven or
unstable work surfaces.
You can send your Notebook PC through x-ray
machines (used on items placed on conveyor
belts), but do not expose them to magnetic
detectors and wands.
Contact your airline provider to learn about
related in-flight services that can be used and
restrictions that must be followed when using
your Notebook PC in flight.
10
Caring for your Notebook PC
Disconnect the AC power and remove the
battery pack (if applicable) before cleaning your
Notebook PC. Use a clean cellulose sponge
or chamois cloth dampened with warm water.
Remove any extra moisture from your Notebook
PC using a dry cloth. Keep any liquids from
entering the chassis or keyboard gap to prevent
short circuit or corrosion.
Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol,
thinners, benzene, or other chemicals on or near
your Notebook PC.
Do not place objects on top of your Notebook
PC.
Do not expose your Notebook PC to strong
magnetic or electrical fields.
Do not use or expose your Notebook PC near
liquids, rain, or moisture.
Do not expose your Notebook PC to dusty
environments.
11
Proper disposal
Do not throw your Notebook PC in municipal
waste. This product has been designed to enable
proper reuse of parts and recycling. The symbol
of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that
the product (electrical, electronic equipment and
mercury-containing button cell battery) should
not be placed in municipal waste. Check local
regulations for disposal of electronic products.
Do not throw the battery in municipal waste.
The symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin
indicates that the battery should not be placed in
municipal waste.
Do not use your Notebook PC near gas leaks.
Do not place active electronic devices close
to your Notebook PC to avoid electromagnetic
wave interference to the display panel.
Do not use this Notebook PC for cryptocurrency
mining (consuming a vast amount of electricity
and time to gain convertible virtual currency)
and/or related activities.
12
Battery protection
• Frequently charging a battery under high voltage may shorten
the battery life. To protect the battery, once the battery is fully
charged, the system may stop charging when the battery
power is between 90% and 100%.
NOTE: The level at which the battery resumes charging is usually set
between 90% and 99%. The actual value may vary by model.
• Charging or storing a battery in high ambient temperatures
may result in permanent damage to the battery power
capacity and rapidly shorten battery life. If the battery
temperature is too high, the system may reduce the battery
power charging capacity or even stop charging to protect the
battery.
• Battery power capacity may drop even when your device is
powered off and disconnected from the AC power. This is
normal as the system still draws a small amount of power
from the battery.
Battery safety information
13
Standard battery care
• If you are not using your device for a long period of time,
ensure to charge the battery power to 50%, then power off
your device and disconnect the AC power adapter. Recharge
the battery power to 50% every three months to avoid over-
discharging and prevent damage to the battery.
• Avoid charging the battery at high voltage for a prolonged
period of time to extend the battery life. If you are constantly
using AC power for your device, ensure to discharge the
battery power to 50% at least once every two weeks. You
can also adjust the settings from Battery Health Charging in
MyASUS to help extend the battery life.
• It is recommended to store your battery at temperatures
between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F) with the battery power
at 50%. You can also adjust the settings from Battery Health
Charging in MyASUS to help extend the battery life.
• Do not leave your battery in damp environments. Exposure
to damp environments may increase the battery over-
discharging rate. Low temperature environment may damage
the chemicals inside the battery while high temperature or
overheating may result in a risk of explosion.
• Do not place your device or battery pack near radiators,
fireplaces, furnaces, heaters, or any sources of heat with
temperature exceeding 60°C (140°F). High temperature
surrounding environment may result in an explosion or
leakage that may cause fire.

identical and accurate colors. You may select Eyecare or other
color modes to adjust display settings.
Low blue light panels and technology reduce blue light emission
and relieve eye discomfort.
Please refer to the following tips to alleviate eye strain:
• Take some time away from the display if working for long
hours. It is advised to take short breaks (at least 5 minutes)
after around 1 hour of continuous working at the computer.
Taking short and frequent breaks is more effective than a
long break.
• To minimize eye strain and eye dryness, rest your eyes
periodically by focusing on objects that are far away.
Default: For models with OLED and Nebula panels, this mode
is compliant with TÜV Low Blue Light Certification.
Eyecare: This mode reduces blue light emission by up to 30%,
helping to protect your eyes.
65
If eye strain persists, please consult a physician.
• Repeat the following exercises to reduce eye strain:
(1) Look up and down repeatedly
(2) Slowly roll your eyes
(3) Move your eyes diagonally
High energy blue light may lead to eye strain and AMD (Age-Related
Macular Degeneration). Blue light Filter reduces 30% (max.) harmful
blue light to avoid CVS (Computer Vision Syndrome).
