Instructions for Care and Operation
The computer is quite rugged, but it can be damaged. To prevent this, follow these suggestions:
•Don’t drop it, or expose it to shock. If the computer falls, the case and the components could be damaged.
•Keep it dry, and don’t overheat it. Keep the computer and power supply away from any kind of heating element. This is an electrical
appliance. If water or any other liquid gets into it, the computer could be badly damaged.
•Avoid interference. Keep the computer away from high capacity transformers, electric motors, and other strong magnetic fields. These can
hinder proper performance and damage your data.
•Follow the proper working procedures for the computer. Shut the computer down properly and don’t forget to save your work. Remem-
ber to periodically save your data as data may be lost.
Power & Battery Safety
• Only use an AC/DC adapter approved for use with this computer.
• Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual.
• Your AC/DC adapter may be designed for international travel but it still requires a steady, uninterrupted power supply. If you are unsure of
your local power specifications, consult your service representative or local power company.
• When you want to unplug the power cord, be sure to disconnect it by the plug head, not by its wire.
• Make sure the socket and any extension cord(s) you use can support the total current load of all the connected devices.
• Make sure that your computer is completely powered off before putting it into a travel bag (or any such container).
• Only use batteries designed for this computer. The wrong battery type may explode, leak or damage the computer.
• Do not continue to use a battery that has been dropped, or that appears damaged (e.g. bent or twisted) in any way. Even if the computer con-
tinues to work with a damaged battery in place, it may cause circuit damage, which may possibly result in fire.
• Recharge the batteries using the computer’s system. Incorrect recharging may make the battery explode.
• Do not try to repair a battery pack. Refer any battery pack repair or replacement to your service representative or qualified service person-
nel.
• Keep children away from, and promptly dispose of a damaged battery. Always dispose of batteries carefully. Batteries may explode or leak
if exposed to fire, or improperly handled or discarded.
• Keep the battery away from metal appliances.
• Affix tape to the battery contacts before disposing of the battery.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
• Do not touch the battery contacts with your hands or metal objects.

Polymer Battery Precautions
Note the following information which is specific to poly-
mer batteries only, and where applicable, this overrides
the general battery precaution information.
• Polymer batteries may experience a slight expansion or swelling,
however this is part of the battery’s safety mechanism and is not a
cause for concern.
• Use proper handling procedures when using polymer batteries.
Do not use polymer batteries in high ambient temperature envi-
ronments, and do not store unused batteries for extended periods.
Cleaning
• Use a soft clean cloth to clean the computer, but do not apply
cleaner directly to the computer.
• Do not use volatile (petroleum distillates) or abrasive cleaners on
any part of the computer.
Servicing
Attempting to service the computer yourself may violate
your warranty and expose you and the computer to electric
shock. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel,
particularly under any of the following conditions:
• When the power cord or AC/DC adapter is damaged or frayed.
• If the computer has been exposed to any liquids.
• If the computer does not work normally when you follow the
operating instructions.
• If the computer has been dropped or damaged (do not touch the
poisonous liquid if the LCD panel breaks).
• If there is an unusual odor, heat or smoke coming from your com-
puter.

Battery Disposal & Caution
The product that you have purchased contains a recharge-
able battery. The battery is recyclable. At the end of its use-
ful life, under various state and local laws, it may be illegal
to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream.
Check with your local solid waste officials for details in your
area for recycling options or proper disposal.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Re-
place only with the same or equivalent type recommended
by the manufacturer. Discardused battery according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
CPU Speed & Computer in DC Mode
Note that when the computer is in DC mode (powered by
the battery only) the CPU may not run at full speed. This is
a design feature implemented in order to protect the bat-
tery.

System Startup
1. Remove all packing materials.
2. Place the computer on a stable surface.
3. Do not attach any external devices except the power cord and
AC adapter to the system until Windows is fully configured..
4. When first setting up the computer use the following
procedure (as to safeguard the computer during shipping, the
battery will be locked to not power the system until first
connected to the AC/DC adapter and initially set up as below):
• Attach the AC/DC adapter cord to the DC-In jack on the left
of the computer, then plug the AC power cord into an outlet,
and connect the AC power cord to the AC/DC adapter and
leave it there for 6 seconds or longer.
• Remove the adapter cord from the computer’s DC-In jack,
and then plug it back in again; the battery will now be
unlocked.
5. Use one hand to raise the lid/LCD to a comfortable viewing
angle (do not to exceed 135 degrees);
use the other hand (as
illustrated in Figure 1) to support the base of the computer
(Note: Never lift the computer by the lid/LCD).
6. Press the power button to turn the computer “on”.

trol Center or taskbar notification area.
Click the GPU Overclock button to access the Graphics
Processing Unit (or GPU) overclocking menu. Overclock-
ing the GPU involves running your GPU at a faster speed
than was originally intended. GPU overclocking is useful
when performing intensive graphic tasks such as 3D ren-
dering and gaming without dropping framerates.
Overclocking should only be enabled when powered
by a plugged-in AC/DC adapter, and not on battery
power. The Fan Speed will also automatically be set to
Overclock (do not adjust this fan speed setting if you
have enabled GPU overclocking).
1. Click On to enable GPU overclocking.

GPU Overclocking Issues
If you get any system errors, to reset the computer press
and hold the power button to force the system to shut-
down. To restart press and hold the power button while
holding down the Fn + G keys. This will change the over-
clocking settings back to the disabled state.

Warning Message
The message highlights the fact that
while overclocking the GPU offers a
boost to graphics performance, it can
cause system instability in certain cir-
cumstances as the harder you push
the processor, the more power you will
need to supply to it, and the hotter the
system will run. Therefore it is not rec-
ommended that you enable GPU over-
clocking for extended periods, only as
and when specifically required.

GPU Overclocking Off Using the Taskbar Icon
Move the cursor over the GPU Overclock
icon in the taskbar, and right-click it and
select Turn off GPU overclocking.
