when working with your notebook. Other notes also provide useful information
which will help you with your notebook.
Safety notes
SafetynotesNotes
Please follow the safety notes provided in the "Safety/Regulations" manual
as well as the safety notes given below.
Please pay special attention to the sections in the manual marked
with the symbol on the left.
When connecting and disconnecting cables, observe the relevant
notes in this operating manual.
Read the information on the ambient conditions in the "Technical data",
Page 74 and "First-time setup of your device", Page 17 before preparing your
notebook for use and switching it on for the first time.
When cleaning the device, please observe the relevant notes in the
section "Cleaning the notebook", Page 16.
Pay attention to the additional safety notes for devices with radio components
provided in the "Safety/Regulations" manual.
Please refer to the notes in the chapter "Removing and installing
components during servicing", Page 60.
This notebook complies with the relevant safety regulations for data processing
equipment. If you have questions about using your notebook in a particular area,
please contact your sales outlet or our Hotline/Service Desk.
Additional safety notes for devices with
radio components
Radiocom ponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes
If a radio component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS) is integrated in your notebook, you
must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:
• Switch off the radio components when you are in an aircraft or driving in a car.
• Switch off the radio components when you are in a hospital, an operating room or near a medical
electronics system. The transmitted radio waves can impair the operation of medical devices.
• Switch off the radio components when you let the device get near flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petrol station, paintshops), as the
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a fire.
For information on how to switch radio components on and off, see chapter
"Switching the wireless components on and off", Page 42.

Important notes
Energy saving
NotesEnergyEnergysaving
Switch the notebook off when it is not in use. Switch off external, connected devices if you
are not using them. If you use the energy saving functions, the notebook uses less energy.
You will then be able to work for longer before having to recharge the battery.
Energy efficiency is increased and the environmental impact is reduced.
You save money while protecting the environment.
Energy saving under Windows
►Make use of the power management features (see "Using the power-management features",
Page 39).
Travelling with your notebook
Mobileope rationNotesTr anspo rtati onNotebook
Please observe the points listed below when travelling with your notebook.
Before you travel
►Back up important data stored on your hard disk.
NotebookTravel,noteboo k
►Switch off the radio component for data security reasons. With data traffic via a wireless
connection, it is also possible for unauthorised third parties to receive data.
Information on activating data encryption is provided in the documentation
for your radio component.
►If you wish to use your notebook during a flight, first check with the flight
attendants if it is OK to do so.
When travelling in other countries
►If you are travelling abroad, check that the mains adapter can be operated with the
local mains voltage. If this is not the case, obtain the appropriate mains adapter for
your notebook. Do not use any other voltage converter!
►Check whether the local mains voltage and the power cable are compatible. If this is
not the case, buy a power cable that matches the local conditions.
►Enquire with the corresponding government office of the country you will be
travelling in as to whether you may operate the radio component integrated in
your notebook there (see also "CE marking", Page 76).
Fujitsu 15

Important notes
Notebook: transporting
Protect the notebook from severe shocks and extreme temperatures
(e.g. direct sunlight in a car).
►If your device has an optical drive, remove all data media (e.g. CD, DVD) from the drives.
TransportationNotebook
►Switch the notebook off.
►Unplug the mains adapter and all external devices from the power socket.
►Disconnect the mains adapter cable and the data cables for all external devices.
►Close the LCD screen.
►To protect against damaging jolts and bumps, use a notebook carrying
case to transport your notebook.
Cleaning the notebook
Do not clean any interior parts yourself; leave this job to a service technician.
Only use cleaning products designed for computers. Normal household
cleaners and polishes can damage the markings on the keyboard and the
device, the paintwork or the notebook itself.
Ensure that no liquid enters the notebook.
The LCD screen very sensitive to scratches. Only clean the display
surface with a very soft, slightly damp cloth.
►Switch the notebook off.
