To prepare the Notebook PC for transport, you should turn it OFF and disconnect all external peripherals to prevent damage to the connectors. The hard disk drive’s head retracts when the power is turned
OFF to prevent scratching of the hard disk surface during transport. Therefore, you should not transport
the Notebook PC while the power is still ON. Close the display panel and check that it is latched securely
in the closed position to protect the keyboard and display panel.
CAUTION: The Notebook PC’s surface is easily dulled if not properly cared for. Be
careful not to rub or scrape the Notebook PC surfaces.
Cover Your Notebook PC
Purchase a carrying bag to protect the Notebook PC from dirt, water, shock, and scratches.
Charge Your Batteries
If you intend to use battery power, be sure to fully charge your battery pack and any optional battery
packs before going on long trips. Remember that the power adapter charges the battery pack as long as
it is plugged into the computer and an AC power source. Be aware that it takes much longer to charge
the battery pack when the Notebook PC is in use.
Airplane Precautions
Contact your airline if you want to use the Notebook PC on the airplane. Most airlines will have restrictions for using electronic devices. Most airlines will allow electronic use only between and not during
takeoffs and landings.
CAUTION! There are three main types of airport security devices: X-ray machines
(used on items placed on conveyor belts), magnetic detectors (used on people walking
through security checks), and magnetic wands (hand-held devices used on people or
individual items). You can send your Notebook PC and diskettes through airport X-ray
machines. However, it is recommended that you do not send your Notebook PC or
diskettes through airport magnetic detectors or expose them to magnetic wands.

the Windows environment, which allows the battery to accurately
report the amount of charge left in the battery. A fully-charged battery
pack provides the Notebook PC a few hours of working power. But

features, your general work habits, the CPU, system memory size,
and the size of the display panel.
To check the remaining battery power, move your cursor over the
power icon. The power icon is a “battery” when not using AC power

more information and settings.
Move your mouse over the battery icon
for remaining power information.
When the AC power is connected,
charging status will be shown.
NOTE: You will be warned when battery power is low. If you
continue to ignore the low battery warnings, the Notebook PC
eventually enters suspend mode (Windows default uses STR).
Note: Screen captures shown here
are examples only and may not reÁHFWZKDW\RXVHHLQ\RXUV\VWHP
Right-click the battery icon for
sub-menus.
Left-click the battery icon for power
management settings.
WARNING! Suspend-to-RAM (STR) does not last long when the battery power is depleted.
Suspend-to-Disk (STD) is not the same as power OFF. STD requires a small amount of
power and will fail if no power is available due to complete battery depletion or no power
supply (e.g. removing both the power adapter and battery pack).
Charging the Battery Pack
Before you use your Notebook PC on the road, you will have to charge the battery pack. The battery pack
begins to charge as soon as the Notebook PC is connected to external power using the power adapter.
)XOO\FKDUJHWKHEDWWHU\SDFNEHIRUHXVLQJLWIRUWKHÀUVWWLPH$QHZEDWWHU\SDFNPXVWFRPSOHWHO\FKDUJH
before the Notebook PC is disconnected from external power. It takes a few hours to fully charge the
battery when the Notebook PC is turned OFF and may take twice the time when the Notebook PC is
turned ON. The battery charge light turns OFF when the battery pack is charged.
NOTE: The battery stops charging if the temperature is too high or the battery voltage
is too high. BIOS provides a smart battery refreshing function. If the battery calibration
process fails, stop charging and contact an authorized service center.
WARNING! Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge
over time. If not using a battery pack, it must continued to be charged every three
months to extend recovery capacity or else it may fail to charge in the future.

IMPORTANT! To protect the hard drive, wait at least 5 seconds after turning OFF your
Notebook PC before turning it back ON.
Emergency Shutdown
In case your operating system cannot properly turn OFF or restart, there are two additional ways to
shutdown your Notebook PC:
(1) Hold the power button
over 4 seconds, or (2) Press the shutdown button
TIP: Use a straightened paper clip to
press the shutdown button.
IMPORTANT! Do not use emergency shutdown while data is being written; doing so
can result in loss or destruction of your data.
