Lithium-ion is vulnerable in colder temperatures.
About Batteries
DANGER! Do not attempt to take the batteries apart, or expose them to flame or excessive heat, as it may
cause a fire or explosion.
WARNING! Do not allow the battery or its terminals to come in contact with metals, as this can result in a
short circuit and possibly start a fire.
Caution! Danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent
type.
The Benefits Of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Lithium-ion battery packs are small but have a large power capacity. However, when one is exposed to cold
temperatures (below 10°C), its usage time becomes shorter and it may cease to function. If this happens, place the
battery pack in your pocket or other warm, protected place for a short time, then re-attach it to the Mobile mini
note PC. As long as the battery pack itself is not cold, it should not affect performance.
(If you’re using a heating pad, make sure the battery pack does not come in direct contact with it.)
CAUTIONS
General Battery Precautions
Use only the following batteries:
Please make note of the following rules for battery
use. When misused, the batteries can leak or
explode.
1. When replacing batteries, refer to page 16.
2. Do not use any different size of batteries from
those specified.
3. Be sure to install batteries in the correct
direction.
4. Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat
as they can leak or explode.
5. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.
Battery Packs
The supplied battery pack
is a lithium-ion battery.
Before using the supplied
Terminals
battery pack or an
optional battery pack, be
sure to read the following
cautions:
1. To avoid hazards . . .
.... do not burn.
.... do not short-circuit the terminals. When
transporting, make sure the provided battery
cap is attached to the battery. If the battery
cap is misplaced, carry the battery in a
plastic bag.
.... do not modify or disassemble.
.... do not expose the battery to temperatures exceeding
60°C, as this may cause the battery to overheat,
explode or catch fire.
.... use only specified chargers.
2. To prevent damage and prolong service life . . .
.... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
.... charge in an environment where temperatures are
within the tolerances shown in the chart below. This
is a chemical reaction type battery—cooler
temperatures impede chemical reaction, while
warmer temperatures can prevent complete
charging.
.... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to high
temperatures will increase natural discharge and
shorten service life.
.... fully charge and then fully discharge the battery
every 6 months when storing the battery pack over a
long period of time.
.... remove from charger or power unit when not in use,
as some machines use current even when switched
off.
NOTES:
● It is normal for the battery pack to be warm after
charging, or after use.

JVC ORIGINAL SOFTWARE AND SYSTEM APPLICATIONS
The following menu options are effective only when you have checked the “Enable”
option.
About the expansion effect modes
One of the following three effect modes can be selected.
Each has its own special characteristics as described below depending on the frequency band
pattern which is to be expanded.
• Harmonic Expansion
Expanding the harmonic components contained in music accentuates the lingering tones
and gives the sound an added brilliance. This mode is particularly suited to vocals and
music made by acoustic instruments. It can have an effect on almost all genres of music,
and it is the mode which is normally used.
• High tone Expansion
Expanding the high-tone components enhances the feeling of the sound’s resolution. It is
particularly suited to hard-sounding types of music made by electronic instruments. With
rock or pop music, you can enjoy a more lively sound.
• All range Expansion
This provides an expansion effect over all the range contained in the music. Since there is
no focus on a particular point to be expanded, the CC converter can have an effect with all
types of music.
About the intensity
One of three menu options can be selected as the intensity level of the effect to be exerted by
the CC converter. It is recommended that you select the level of intensity that matches the size
of the speakers that will reproduce the sound, the performance of the headphones and type of
sound data (compressed or non-compressed).
• More presence
The CC converter functions to have the maximum effect.
The “More presence” level is suited to playing back compressed music data through the PC’s
built-in speakers or other small-sized speakers. With some types of music, the noise may be
accentuated in which case the “Standard” or “More natural” option should be selected.
• Standard
With the “Standard” level, the CC converter exerts an effect which is suited to listening to
compressed music data through headphones or mini audio components. This is the setting
which is normally used.
• More natural
The CC converter functions to reproduce the original sound with the highest possible fidelity.
The “More natural” level is suited to listening to non-compressed high-quality data through
large-sized speakers.

to restart the CC converter, you can start up the program from the Start menu.
Cautions
• Do not change the sound playback device when you are playing back the sound data (such
as an audio file).
• If you have changed the sound playback device, wait five (5) or more seconds before playing
back the data.
• The CC converter can process two-channel PCM data only. A sound device may transfer
multi-channel data or non-PCM data, but the CC converter cannot process such data.
• If you play back data having a high noise level, the noise may be emphasized.
• Users other than the computer administrator (even if they have the Administrator’s authority)
may not change the CC converter setup.

Network Connections Using a Wireless LAN
The model MP-XP731GB
PC comes with wireless LAN functions.
XV841
You can connect to a LAN system from any location within the wireless communication area to
access the Internal LAN or send and receive mail. By using a wireless LAN access point (available
from a retail store) which is connected to an ADSL modem (available from a retail store), you can
access broadband environments from a multiple number of PCs. Furthermore, you can bring
your PC to one of the public wireless LAN services which have been increasing of late and enjoy
accessing the Internet by wireless means.
For the wireless network settings and details, refer to [Help and Support] on the [Start] menu.
General Description of Wireless LAN
The wireless LAN in this PC supports the following functions.
• Automatic communication speed selection function: 11, 5.5, 2 and 1 (Mbps)
• Frequency channel selection : All 11 channels (2412 to 2462 MHz)
• Roaming between multi-channels
• Power management function
• Compliance with IEEE802.11 and IEEE802.11b /g
standards
Types of Wireless LAN Networks
• AdHoc Mode
In this mode, the data is transferred directly between PCs. It is suited to wireless networks in
which data is transferred between several laptops. The peer-to-peer workgroup setting for
providing equal handling for all the laptops is established.
• Infrastructure Mode
In this mode, the PCs are connected through an access point. If the access point is connected
to an ADSL, CATV, ISDN or other such line, the PCs can be connected to the Internet as well.
68
HARDWARE

5 Use the following example as a reference, and proceed with the settings to suit how the
wireless LAN is to be used.
For making a wireless network connection using a public wireless LAN service:
With a public wireless LAN service, it is customary for the DHCP server function that
automatically allocates the IP address to be enabled. On the [Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
Properties] screen, click and select “Obtain an IP address automatically” and “Obtain
DNS server address automatically” and click the [OK] button.
For directly communicating with another PC using a peer-to-peer connection:
Set the IP address which has the same network address as the IP address of the PC that
serves as the other end of the communication. If, for example, the IP address at the other
end is 192.168.1.1, click and select “Use the following IP address” on the [Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP)] screen, and input 192.168.1.2, for instance, in the “IP address” field. Input
255.255.255.0 for “Subnet mask” and click the [OK] button.
72
EN
HARDWARE
For making the wireless network connection via an access point:
In cases involving an in-company LAN, etc. where a DHCP server is in operation on the
wired network to which the access point is connected, click and select “Obtain an IP
address automatically” and “Obtain DNS server address automatically” on the [Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties] screen, and click the [OK] button. (Check with a network
administrator to ascertain whether the DHCP server is in operation.)
In a home or other such environment where a DHCP server is not in operation, manually
set the IP address to the one that has the same network address as the IP address of the
access point. If, for example, the IP address of the access point has been set to 192.168.10.1,
click and select “Use the following IP address” on the PC’s [Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
Properties] screen, and input 192.168.10.2, for instance, in the “IP address” field. Input
255.255.255.0 for “Subnet mask” and click the [OK] button.
When connecting to the Internet using a wireless LAN access point connected to an ADSL
modem (available from a retail store), check the method used to set the IP address with
the Internet service provider.
4. When the wireless LAN starts up, the PC automatically searches for the
network which can be used. When a usable network has been detected,
a message appears on the task tray.
5. Double-click the wireless network connection
icon on the task tray at
the bottom right of the screen.
The [Wireless Network Connection] screen appears.

Unknown Partition on Hard Disk
IMPORTANT!!
This PC reserves the image data required for recovery as a “recovery area” in the hard disk. If you
accidentally delete a partition of the recovery area, you cannot recover it. The important points to
keep in mind are:
• DO NOT attempt to delete a hard disk area shown as an “Unknown partition” using the
Windows XP “Administrative Tools”, or to assign it as another drive name.
• DO NOT attempt to delete the recovery area using specific software available in the market by
initializing or changing any partition in the hard disk.
Should you delete the recovery area and ask us to re-setup your PC, you will be liable for the cost.

PC RECOVERY (REPEATED PC SETUP)
Setting Up Your PC Again
1. What is the Recovery?
When you return your PC to the original state during shipment, it is called “PC recovery.”
You can recover your PC in one of the following two ways.
(1) Initialize the hard disk and restore all files.
(2) Restore the first partition of the hard disk only.
Caution
Do not reduce the capacity of drive C below 11G bytes.
For details, see “Select the recovery method (disk partitioning)” on Page 83.
2. Before Starting Repeated Setup
The following explains the preparation required befor system recovery.
• You may not solve the problem even if you have recovered your PC. If the problem
continues, consult our PC Technical Support Centre.
• You can use System Recovery on your PC only. You cannot use this software for the PC of
another manufacturer.
Cautions
1) File backup
• If you have recovered your PC, it will have been returned to the status before shipment.
All files you have created, applications you have added, and various parameters you
have set will have been cleared and lost.
Before starting system recovery, back up any important files you have created on CD-R
disk or hard disk drive D of your PC.
• If you have backed up the important information in drive D, you must select the option
in Step 2 “Select the recovery method (disk partitioning)” on Page 83 and you must
recover drive C only.
2) When starting System Recovery
Detach all peripherals from your PC. If not, the recovery may stop or the required operations
may differ from those written in the manual.
3. Repeated Setup
Execute the Recovery program to restore the information on the hard disk. The Recovery
program returns both your PC and all applications back to the original state before shipment.
If you wish to set up the application software separately, upload them from the Application
CD-ROM one at a time. (See “To Set Up the Standard Applications Again” on Page 34.)
