Placement of the computer
Proper placement of the computer and external devices is important to
avoid stress-related injuries. Consider the following when placing your
computer.
** Place the computer on a flat surface at a comfortable height and
distance. You should be able to type without twisting your torso or
neck, and look at the screen without slouching.
“* If you are using an external monitor, the top of the display should be
no higher than eye level.
>
“* If you use a paper holder, set it at about the same height and distance
as the screen.
Seating and posture
When using your computer, maintain good posture with your body relaxed
and your weight distributed evenly. Proper seating is a primary factor in
reducing work strain.

Removing a PC card
Hot swapping
With PC Cards, you can replace one PC Card with another while the
computer is on. This is called “hot swapping.”
Although you can insert a PC Card at any time, remember not to remove a
card while it is in use. Otherwise, you could lose valuable information. For
example:
“* Do not remove a hard disk card while the system is accessing it.
** Do not remove a network card while you are connected to a network.
** Do not remove a SCSI card while any of the SCSI devices connected
to it are operating.
Before removing a PC Card, shut it down by clicking the Safely Remove
Hardware icon on the taskbar. Once the PC Card has stopped, you can
safely remove it.

Computing tips
** Save your work frequently.
Your work stays in the computer’s temporary memory until you save it
to the disk. You will lose all unsaved work, if, for example, a system
error occurs and you must restart your computer, or your battery runs
out of charge while you are working. Your computer can be
configured to warn you when the battery is running low.

press Fn and F11 simultaneously to turn off the numeric keypad light.
If the problem occurs when both the keypad overlays are off, make sure the
software you are using is not remapping the keyboard. Refer to the
software’s documentation and check that the program does not assign
different meanings to any of the keys.
Display problems
Here are some typical display problems and their solutions:
The display is blank.
Display Auto Off may be in effect. Press any key to activate the screen.
You may have activated the instant password feature by pressing Fn and F1
simultaneously. If you have registered a password, press the Enter key, type
the password and press Enter. If no password is registered, press Enter. The
screen reactivates and allows you to continue working.
If you are using the built-in screen, make sure the display priority is not set
for an external monitor. To do this, press Fn and F5 simultaneously (once).
If this does not correct the problem, press Fn and F5 simultaneously again
to return the display priority to its previous setting.

The

products
are
designed
to
be
interoperable
with
any
wireless

product
that
is
based
on
Direct

(DSSS)
radio
technology,
and
is
compliant
to:
“
~The
IEEE
802.11
Standard
on

(Revision
B),
as
defined
and
approved
by
the
Institute
of

certification
as
defined
by

WECA
Wireless
Ethernet

Alliance.
Wireless LAN and your Health
Wireless
LAN
products,
like
other
radio
devices,
emit
radio
frequency
electromagnetic
energy.
The
level
of
energy
emitted
by
Wireless
LAN
devices
however
is
far
much
less
than
the
electromagnetic
energy
emitted
by
wireless
devices
like
for
example
mobile
phones.
Because
Wireless
LAN
products
operate
within
the
guidelines
found
in
radio
frequency
safety
standards
and
recommendations,
Toshiba
believes
Wireless
LAN
is
safe
for
use
by
consumers.
These
standards
and
recommendations
reflect
the
consensus
of
the
scientific
community
and
result
from
deliberations
of
panels
and
committees
of
scientists
who
continually
review
and
interpret
the
extensive
research
literature.
In
some
situations
or
environments,
the
use
of
Wireless
LAN
may
be
restricted
by
the
proprietor
of
the
building
or
responsible
representatives
of
the
organization.
These
situations
may
for example
include:
“*
Using
the
Wireless

or
“*
In
any
other
environment
where
the
risk
of
interference
to
other
devices
or
services
is
perceived
or
identified
as
harmful.
If
you
are
uncertain
of
the
policy
that
applies
on
the
use
of
wireless
devices
in
a
specific
organization
or
environment
(e.g.,
airports),
you
are
encouraged
to
ask
for
authorization
to
use

prior
to
turning
on
