ROM contains the drivers and utilities necessary for the proper operation of the notebook, and also contains the User’s
Manual in Adobe Acrobat format.
Some or all of the computer’s features may already have been setup. If they aren’t, or you are planning to re-configure
(or re-install) portions of the system, refer to the expanded User’s Manual. The Device Drivers & Utilities + User’s
Manual CD-ROM does not contain an operating system.
Regulatory Information
Regulatory notices and information are contained in the expanded User’s Manual on the Device Drivers & Utilities

Instructions for Care and Operation
The notebook computer is quite rugged, but it can be damaged. To prevent this, follow these suggestions:
1. Don’t drop it, or expose it to shock. If the computer falls, the case and the components could be damaged.
2. 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.
Do not expose the computer
to any shock or vibration.
Do not place it on an unstable
surface.
Do not place anything heavy
on the computer.
Do not expose it to excessive
heat or direct sunlight.
Do not leave it in a place where
foreign matter or moisture may
affect the system.
Don’t use or store the computer
in a humid environment.
Do not place the computer on
any surface which will block the
vents.

3. 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.
4. Follow the proper working procedures for the computer. Shut the computer down properly and don’t forget to save
your work. Remember to periodically save your data as data may be lost if the battery is depleted.
5. Take care when using peripheral devices.
Do not turn off the power until
you properly shut down all pro-
grams.
Do not turn off any peripheral
devices when the computer is
on.
Do not disassemble the com-
puter by yourself.
Perform routine maintenance
on your computer.
Use only approved brands of

Power Safety
The computer has specific power requirements:
• Only use a power adapter approved for use with this computer.
• Your AC 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, con-
sult your service representative or local power company.
• The power adapter may have either a 2-prong or a 3-prong grounded plug. The third
prong is an important safety feature; do not defeat its purpose. If you do not have access
to a compatible outlet, have a qualified electrician install one.
• 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.
• Before cleaning the computer, make sure it is disconnected from any external power
supplies.
Do not plug in the power
cord if you are wet.
Do not use the power cord if
it is broken.
Do not place heavy objects
on the power cord.

Power Safety Warning
Before you undertake
any upgrade proce-
dures, make sure that
you have turned off the
power, and disconnect-
ed all peripherals and
cables (including tele-
phone lines). It is advis-
able to also remove your
battery in order to pre-
vent accidentally turning
the machine on.

• Recharge the batteries using the notebook’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 qual-
ified service personnel.
• 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 touch the battery contacts with your hands or metal objects.

Battery Disposal
The product that you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The battery is recyclable. At the end of its useful
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.
Caution
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by
the manufacturer. Discard used battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Cleaning
• Do not apply cleaner directly to the computer, use a soft clean cloth.
• Do not use volatile (petroleum distillates) or abrasive cleaners on any part of the computer.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Doing so may violate your warranty and expose you and the com-
puter to electric shock. Refer all servicing to authorized service personnel. Unplug the computer from the power sup-
ply. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel under any of the following conditions:
• When the power cord is damaged or frayed.
• If the computer has been exposed to rain or other 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).

Quick Start Guide
This guide assumes that you are already familiar with computers and can tell at a glance what and where all the key
components are. If you are not that comfortable with this type of device, then please refer to the following pages,
which give an overview of the system. You can review these steps, before taking any action.
1. Remove all packing materials, CDs/DVDs,
floppy disks, and any PC Cards.
2. Securely attach any peripherals you want to use
with the notebook (e.g. keyboard and mouse)
to their ports.
3. Attach the AC adapter to the DC-In jack at the
rear of the computer (see “Rear View” on
page 15), then plug the AC power cord into an
outlet, and connect the AC power cord to the
AC adapter.
4. Raise the lid/LCD to a comfortable viewing
angle.
5. Press the power button to turn “on”.

Peripheral Devices
Please note that peripherals (printers, digital cameras, etc.) which at-

CD Emergency Eject
If you need to manually eject a CD/DVD (e.g. due to an unexpected power interruption)
you may push the end of a straightened paper clip into the emergency eject hole. Do
not use a sharpened pencil or similar object that may break and become lodged in the
hole.
