About this Concise User Guide
This quick guide is a brief introduction to getting your system started. This is a supplement, and not a substitute for
the expanded English language User’s Manual in Adobe Acrobat format on the Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s
Manual disc supplied with your computer. This disc also contains the drivers and utilities necessary for the proper
operation of the computer.
Some or all of the computer’s features may already have been setup. If they aren’t, or you are planning to re-configure
(or re-install) portions of the system, refer to the expanded User’s Manual. The Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s
Manual disc does not contain an operating system.
Regulatory Information
Regulatory notices and information are contained in the expanded User’s Manual on the Device Drivers & Utilities
+ User’s Manual disc.
Wireless Device Operation Aboard Aircraft
The use of any portable electronic transmission devices aboard aircraft is usually prohibited. Make sure the wireless modules are
OFF if you are using the computer aboard aircraft.

Instructions for Care and Operation - 3
Concise User’s Guide
English
Instructions for Care and Operation
The computer is quite rugged, but it can be damaged. To prevent this, follow these suggestions:
•Don’t drop it, or expose it to shock. If the computer falls, the case and the components could be damaged.
•Keep it dry, and don’t overheat it. Keep the computer and power supply away from any kind of heating element.
This is an electrical appliance. If water or any other liquid gets into it, the computer could be badly damaged.
•Avoid interference. Keep the computer away from high capacity transformers, electric motors, and other strong mag-
netic fields. These can hinder proper performance and damage your data.
•Follow the proper working procedures for the computer. Shut the computer down properly and don’t forget to
save your work. Remember to periodically save your data as data may be lost.
•Take care when using peripheral devices.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Doing so may violate your warranty and expose you and the com-
puter to electric shock. Refer all servicing to authorized service personnel. Unplug the computer from the power sup-
ply. Then refer servicing to qualified service personnel under any of the following conditions:
• When the power cord is damaged or frayed.
• If the computer has been exposed to any liquids.
• If the computer does not work normally when you follow the operating instructions.
• If the computer has been dropped or damaged (do not touch the poisonous liquid if the LCD panel breaks).
• If there is an unusual odor, heat or smoke coming from your computer.

4 - Instructions for Care and Operation
Concise User’s Guide
English
Power Safety
The computer has specific power requirements:
• Only use an AC/DC adapter approved for use with this computer.
• Your AC/DC adapter may be designed for international travel but it still requires a steady, uninterrupted power supply.
If you are unsure of your local power specifications, consult your service representative or local power company.
• The AC/DC adapter may have either a 2-prong or a 3-prong grounded plug. The third prong is an important safety fea-
ture; do not defeat its purpose. If you do not have access to a compatible outlet, have a qualified electrician install one.
• When you want to unplug the power cord, be sure to disconnect it by the plug head, not by its wire.
• Make sure the socket and any extension cord(s) you use can support the total current load of all the connected devices.
• Before cleaning the computer, make sure it is disconnected from any external power supplies.
Cleaning
Do not apply cleaner directly to the computer, use a soft clean cloth. Do not use volatile (petroleum distillates) or
abrasive cleaners on any part of the computer.
Power Safety Warning
Before you undertake any upgrade procedures, make sure that you have turned off the power, and disconnected all peripherals
and cables (including telephone lines). It is advisable to also remove your battery in order to prevent accidentally turning the ma-
chine on. Power Off Before Traveling
Make sure that your notebook is completely powered off before putting it into a travel bag (or any such container). Putting a note-
book which is powered on in a travel bag may cause the vent(s) to be blocked. To prevent your computer from overheating make
sure nothing blocks the vent(s) while the computer is in use.

Battery Precautions
• Only use batteries designed for this computer. The wrong battery type may explode, leak or damage the computer.
• Do not continue to use a battery that has been dropped, or that appears damaged (e.g. bent or twisted) in any way.
Even if the computer continues to work with a damaged battery in place, it may cause circuit damage, which may pos-
sibly result in fire.
• Recharge the batteries using the notebook’s system. Incorrect recharging may make the battery explode.
• Do not try to repair a battery pack. Refer any battery pack repair or replacement to your service representative or qual-
ified service personnel.
• Keep children away from, and promptly dispose of a damaged battery. Always dispose of batteries carefully. Batteries
may explode or leak if exposed to fire, or improperly handled or discarded.
• Keep the battery away from metal appliances.
• Affix tape to the battery contacts before disposing of the battery.
• Do not touch the battery contacts with your hands or metal objects.
Battery Disposal & Caution
The product that you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The batteryis recyclable. At the end of its useful life,under
various state and local laws, it maybe illegal to dispose ofthis battery into the municipal waste stream. Check with your local solid
waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper disposal.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manu-
facturer. Discard used battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

6 - System Startup
English
System Startup
1. Remove all packing materials.
2. Place the computer on a stable surface.
3. Securely attach any peripherals you want to use with the
notebook (e.g. keyboard and mouse) to their ports.
4. Attach the AC/DC adapter to the DC-In jack at the rear of
the computer, then plug the AC power cord into an outlet,
and connect the AC power cord to the AC/DC adapter.
5. Move the left latch to the unlock position, and slide the
right latch (and hold it in place) while raising the lid.
6. Use one hand to carefully raise the lid/LCD to a
comfortable viewing angle, while using the other hand (as
illustrated in Figure 1) to support the base of the computer
(Note: Never lift the computer by the lid/LCD).
7. Press the power button to turn the computer “on”.
Aluminum Covers
Note that this computer series includes some model de-
signs with aluminum top covers. In order to clean this-
type of cover use a soft, clean, slightly damp cloth to
carefully wipe of any marks (e.g. fingerprints). DO NOT
use volatile (petroleum distillates) or abrasive cleaners
on any part of the computer.
Shut Down
Note that you should always shut your computer down by
choosing the Shut Down command from the Lock But-
ton Menu in Windows Vista. This will help prevent hard
disk or system problems.

System Software - 7
English
System Software
Your computer may already come with system software
pre-installed. Where this is not the case, or where you are
re-configuring your computer for a different system, you
will find this manual refers to the Microsoft Windows
Vista operating system. Further information on installing
the drivers and utilities is available in Chapters 4 & 7 of
the expanded User’s Manual on the Device Drivers &
Utilities + User’s Manual disc.
Operating Systems Supported
Not Included
Operating Systems (e.g. Windows Vista/Windows XP)
and applications (e.g. word processing, spreadsheet and
database programs) have their own manuals, so please
consult the appropriate manuals.
Drivers
If you are installing/re-installing new system software, you
will need to install the appropriate drivers. Drivers are pro-
grams which act as an interface between the computer
and a hardware component e.g. a wireless network mod-
ule. It is very important that you install the drivers in the or-
der listed in Table 5, on page 22. You will be unable to
use most advanced controls until the necessary drivers
and utilities are properly installed.
