Congratulations on your purchase of the Intel-powered convertible classmate

PC. Your netbook features a built-in rotating camera, rotating LCD display panel,

and touch screen functions. In this section, you will be introduced to the basic

operations of your netbook.

Installing the Battery

Before installing or removing the battery, make sure the Netbook is turned off.

To install the battery pack:

1. Align the arrows on the battery pack with the arrows on either side of the

battery bay, and insert the battery pack into the battery bay.

2. Slide the battery pack down gently but firmly until it locks into place.

3. Slide the battery lock switch left into the locked position.

4. Lift and remove the battery.



Note

You must charge the battery pack for at least six hours before using it for the

first time.

Charging the Battery

To charge the battery, plug the AC adaptor into the netbook and an electrical

outlet. Whenever possible, use the AC adaptor to keep the netbook connected

to a power source.

For a totally discharged battery, it will take approximately two hours to charge

to 90% capacity, and approximately three hours to 100% while the netbook is

powered off. It will take about five hours to charge the battery to 100% capacity

while the netbook is powered on.

If the system runs at heavy loads or in a high temperature environment, the

battery may not be fully charged. You need to continue to charge it with the AC

adaptor plugged in until the charging LED turns green.

•Low battery warning: When the battery power is reduced to 10 percent,

the battery status LED blinks orange and the system beeps every 16 seconds.

•Very low battery warning: When the battery power is reduced to five

percent, the battery status LED blinks orange and the system beeps every 4

seconds.

Warning

Always use the AC adapter and power cord included with this package. Using a

replacement may result in damage to your netbook.



Note

The system will not charge the battery when the temperature exceeds 40

degrees Celsius.



Opening the LCD Panel

To open the LCD panel:

1. Steady the base of the netbook with one hand.

2. Hold a corner of the LCD panel with the other hand.

3. Gently raise the LCD panel to the upright position.

Warning

Never slam the LCD panel shut, as this may damage the netbook.



Note

Do not grip the Built-in rotating camera when trying to open or close the LCD

panel.

Switching the Power On

Once you have connected your AC adapter or charged the battery pack, you

can power on your netbook.

When you power on your netbook, the Power-On Self Test (POST) runs

automatically to check the internal hardware and configuration. After the POST

is completed, your netbook loads the installed operating system.

If hardware configuration has been changed or the POST fails, a warning

message may appear on the screen. This message will inform you of any errors

or invalid settings, and prompt you to run the BIOS Setup Utility to correct the

problem.

To switch the power on:

Slide the power latch towards you and release.

To switch the power off:

1. Make sure all applications are turned off.

2. Slide the power latch towards you and release.

Warning

•Never turn the netbook off during the POST, or an unrecoverable error

may occur.

•Never turn the netbook off while the hard disk is in use, or system data

may be lost or corrupted.


