The reset button is used for shutting down the Notebook PC if <CTRL><ALT><DEL> or turning OFF the power does not respond. To use this function, momentarily depress the button within the hole with a pen or paper clip and the Notebook PC will turn OFF. Do not use a pencil since the tip may break off in the hole.
Air Vents
The air vents allow cool air to enter and warm air to exit the Notebook PC. Do not block the air vents or else overheating may occur!
CPU Compartment
The CPU compartment contains a socket for mounting a central processing unit. CPU installation/ upgrades must be done by an authorized retailer or else warranty will be void.
