Notes on the Battery
To increase the lifespan and performance of your battery and also
to ensure reliable operation, you should also heed the following
instructions:
− Avoid dirt and contact with electrically conductive materials or
chemical substances and cleaning agents.
− Use only the supplied AC adapter to charge the battery. Make
sure (via the notebook display or acoustic signal) that the

radiation.
− Remove any unnecessary cables from your notebook to avoid
possible interference.
Information about the Touchpad
NOTICE!
Risk of damage!
The touchpad is a highly sensitive input device and it will respond
to a light touch and minimal pressure.
− Never use undue force to operate the touchpad as this could
damage or destroy it.
The touchpad is operated with the thumb or another finger and
reacts to the energy given out by the skin. Dust or grease on the
touchpad can affect its sensitivity.
− Do not use pens or other objects as these can damage your
touchpad.
− Remove the dust or grease from the surface of the touchpad
with a soft, dry and lint-free cloth.

Protecting the Display
The display is the most sensitive component part of the device as it
consists of thin glass.
The display can break if subjected to too much stress.
− Do not allow any objects to drop onto the display.
− Do not place any objects on the display.
− Do not scratch the display with your fingernails or hard objects.
− Do not fold the display back by an angle of more than 120°.
Exceeding this value may damage the housing or the device.
Always hold the display firmly by the middle when folding it
back, adjusting the position and closing it.
− If the screen breaks, there is a danger of injury. If this happens,
pick up the shattered pieces wearing protective gloves and
send them to your service centre for professional disposal.
Finally, wash your hands with soap, as the pieces may have
been contaminated with chemicals.
− Never lift the notebook up by the display as this could break the
hinges. Avoid contact between the display and hard objects
(e.g. buttons, wristwatch).
Data Backup
Back up your data on external storage media before each update. We do
not accept any liability for claims for compensation arising from loss of
data or any consequential loss or damage.

Ergonomics
Avoid dazzle, reflections and a light-dark contrast that is too strong in
order to protect your eyes.
The notebook should never be placed next to a window because this is the brightest
part of the room in daylight. This brightness can make it more difficult for the eyes to
adjust to the darker display. The notebook should always be positioned so that the
direction of vision is parallel to the window front.
Setting up the notebook with your back to the window is incorrect as reflections from
the bright window on the screen will then be unavoidable. A position looking onto
the window is also incorrect as the contrast between the dark screen and the bright
daylight can cause problems for the eyes to adjust and result in problems.
The parallel line of vision should also be maintained in relation to artificial lighting
equipment.
In other words, the same criteria and principles apply where the workspace is
illuminated with artificial light. Where space restrictions make it impossible to set up
the screen as described, then correct positioning (rotating, tilting) of the notebook/
screen can prevent dazzling, reflections and excessive bright-dark contrast, etc. In
many cases, an improvement can also be achieved by using slats or vertical blinds on
the windows, partition walls or by changing the artificial lighting equipment.
Take regular breaks when working at your notebook to prevent tenseness
and fatigue.
Sitting for a long time without changing position can be uncomfortable. Correct
posture is very important for minimising the risks of physical problems or damage.

• In general – change your position frequently (around every 20-30 minutes)
and take regular breaks to avoid tiredness.
• Back – when sitting at your workstation, your back must be supported by your
chair’s backrest, which must be upright or angled slightly back.
• Arms – your arms and elbows should be relaxed and loose. Your elbows should
be close to your body. Hold your forearms and hands roughly parallel to the
floor.
• Wrists – when working with the keyboard, mouse or trackball, your wrists
should be stretched out and not bent at an angle of more than 10°, where
possible. Make sure that your wrists are not resting on the table edge itself.
• Legs – your thighs should be horizontal or angled slightly down. Your lower
legs should form an angle with your thighs of approximately 90°. Your feet
should be resting flat on the floor. Use a foot rest if you need one, but first make
sure that your seat height has been adjusted correctly.
• Head – your head should be upright or bent very slightly forward. Do not work
with your head or upper body twisted.
As you work, the top edge of the monitor should be at eye level or very slightly
lower.
The distance between the monitor and the person viewing it depends on
individual requirements. Distances between 50 and 70cm are commonly used.
