Preparing your notebook for use
Important notes
Please read and observe the safety instructions in the "Safety" manual
and in the "AMILO Notebook" operating manual.
Preparing your notebook for use
First-timesetupNotebookGettingstartedNotebook
If your notebook comes with a Windows operating system then all of the necessary
hardware drivers and the supplied software will already be pre-installed.
With the operating system Microsoft Vista, it may take up to 20 minutes to prepare your
notebook for use depending on the hardware fitted and the software supplied.
When you switch on the notebook for the first time it will perform a system
check. A number of different messages may be displayed. In the process,
the display may flicker or darken temporarily.
Please follow the instructions on the screen.
It is very important that you do not switch the notebook off during this initial set-up process.
Before you can use your notebook for the first time you will need to charge the battery.
On delivery, the battery can be found in the battery compartment or in the accessories kit. The
battery must be charged if you want to operate your notebook with the battery.
When not plugged into a mains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can
increase the battery’s life by enabling the system’s energy saving functions.
If you use the notebook in at home or in an office, we recommend you use
the mains adapter instead of the battery.
Please refer to the "AMILO Notebook" operating manual for instructions on how to connect
external devices (e.g. a mouse or a printer) to the notebook.
Unpacking and checking your notebook
Should you discover any damage incurred during transportation, notify
your local sales outlet immediately!
►Unpack all the individual parts.
PackagingTran spor t
►Check your notebook for damage incurred during transportation.
We recommend that you keep the original packaging material.
You may need the packaging in the future if you need to transport your device.

Preparing your notebook for use
Selecting the location
Location,selectingtheNotebookPower adapter
Select a suitable location for the notebook before setting it up. Consider
the following points when selecting a location:
• Never place the notebook on a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered furniture,
bed). This can block the air vents and cause damage due to overheating.
• Do not place the notebook directly on your legs for extended periods. The
underside of the notebook heats up during normal operation. Extended contact
with the skin can become unpleasant or even result in burns.
• Place the notebook on a stable, flat, non-slip surface. Please note that
the rubber feet may mark certain types of surfaces.
• Keep other objects 100 mm away from the notebook and its mains
adapter to ensure adequate ventilation.
• Never cover the ventilation slots on the notebook.
• Do not expose the notebook to extreme environmental conditions. Protect
the notebook against dust, humidity and heat.
Connecting the mains adapter
Preparingfor operationMainsada pter
Please observe the safety precautions in the "Safety" manual.
The supplied mains cable conforms to the requirements of the country in which
you purchased your notebook. Make sure that the mains cable is approved
for use in the country in which you intend to use it.
The mains cable of the mains adapter must only be connected to a mains
socket if the notebook is connected to the mains adapter.
Make sure that the rated current of the mains adapter is not higher than that
of the power system to which you connect the mains adapter (refer to the
"Technical Data" section, "Power adapter", Page 6 ).
