GETTING STARTED
Power Sources
Your computer has two types of power source: a Lithium-Ion battery or an AC adapter.
CONNECTING THE POWER ADAPTERS
The AC adapter provides power for operating your notebook PC and charging the battery.
Connecting the AC Adapter
1. Plug the DC output cable into the DC power jack of your notebook PC.
2. Plug the AC adapter into an AC electrical outlet.
Switching from AC Adapter Power to Battery Power
1. Be sure that you have at least one charged battery installed.
2. Remove the AC adapter. Your notebook will automatically switch from DC power to bat-
tery power.
Note: The Lithium-Ion battery is not charged upon purchase. Initially, you will need
to connect the AC adapter to use your notebook PC.
RECHARGING THE BATTERY
The Lithium-Ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter. To recharge the bat-
tery, make sure the battery is installed and the computer is connected to the AC.
There is no„memory eect”in Lithium-Ion batteries; therefore you do not need to discharge
the battery completely before recharging. The charge times will be signicantly longer if
your notebook PC is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery
more quickly, put your computer into Suspend mode, or turn it o while the adapter is
charging the battery.

ENGLISH
Low Battery State
When the battery charge is low, a notication message appears. If you do not respond to
the low battery message, the batteries continue to discharge until they are too low to oper-
ate. When this happens, your notebook PC goes into Suspend mode. There is no guarantee
your data will be saved once the notebook reaches this point.
Note: To protect your computer from damage, use only the power adapter that came
with it because each power adapter has its own power output rating.
Once your note computer goes into Suspend mode as a result of a dead battery you will
be unable to resume operation until you provide a source of power either from an adapter,
or a charged battery. Once you have provided power, you can press the Suspend/ Resume
button to resume operation. In Suspend mode, your data is maintained for some time, but
if a power source is not provided promptly, the Power indicator stops ashing and the goes
out, in which case you have lost the data that was not saved. Once you provide power, you
can continue to use your computer while an adapter charges the battery.
STARTING YOUR NOTEBOOK
POWER ON
Suspend/Resume/Power On Button
The suspend/resume/power on switch is used to turn on your notebook from its o state.
Once you have connected your AC adapter or charged the internal Lithium-Ion battery, you
can power on your notebook by pressing the suspend/resume/on button located above
the keyboard. If you need to take an extended break, press the button again to turn it o.
Note: Do not carry your notebook around with the power on or subject it to shocks or
vibration, as you risk damaging the hard disk.
When you power on your notebook, it will perform a Power On Self Test (POST) to check the
internal parts and conguration for correct functionality. If a fault is found, your computer
emits an audio warning and or displays and error message.
Depending on the nature of the problem, you may be able to continue by starting the op-
erating system or by entering the BIOS setup utility and revising the settings. After satisfac-
tory completion of the Power On Self Test (POST), your notebook loads the installed oper-
ating system.
Note: Never turn o your notebook during the Power On Self Test (POST), or an unre-
coverable error may occur.

Using the TouchPad
A TouchPad pointing device comes built into your computer. It is used to control the move-
ment of the pointer to select items on your display panel.
The TouchPad consists of a cursor control, a left and right button, and two scroll buttons.
The cursor control works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor around the di-
splay. It only requires light pressure from the tip of your nger. The left and right buttons
function the same as mouse buttons. The actual functionality of the buttons may vary de-
pending on the application that is being used. Finally, the scroll buttons allow you to navi-
gate quickly through pages, without having to use the on-screen cursor to manipulate the
up and down scroll bars.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Your notebook PC is sturdy and subject to few problems in the eld. However, you may en-
counter simple setup or operating problems that you can solve on the spot, or problems
with peripheral devices, that you can solve by replacing the device. The information in this
section helps you isolate and resolve some of these straightforward problems and identify
failures that require service.
Identifying the Problem
If you encounter a problem, go through the following procedure before pursuing complex
troubleshooting:
1. Turn o your notebook.
2. Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into your notebook and to an active AC power
source.
3. Make sure that any card installed in the PC Card slot is seated properly. You can also re-
move the card from the slot, thus eliminating it as a possible cause of failure.
4. Make sure that any devices connected to the external connectors are plugged in prop-
erly. You can also disconnect such devices, thus eliminating them as possible causes of fail-
ure.
5. Turn on your notebook. Make sure it has been o at least 10 seconds before you turn it
on.
6. Go through the boot sequence.
7. If the problem has not been resolved, contact your support representative.
Before you place the call, you should have the following information ready so that the cus-
