Chapter 2 Learning the Basics
2.1 Select a place to work
The Laptop is portable and designed to be used in a variety of circumstances and locations. Please refer to the following
information to use it more comfortably:
Creating Laptop-friendly environment
Place the Laptop on a flat surface that is large enough for the Laptop and any other items you need to use, such as a printer.
Leave enough space around the Laptop and other equipment in order to provide adequate ventilation and prevent
overheating.
To keep your Laptop in prime operating condition, protect your work area from:
‹ Dust, moisture, and direct sunlight.
‹ Equipment that generates a strong electromagnetic field, such as stereo speakers (other than speakers that are
connected to the Laptop) or speakerphones.
‹ Rapid changes in temperature or humidity and sources of temperature change, such as air conditioner vents or heaters.
‹ Extreme heat, cold, or humidity. The suitable ones are relative temperature between 10ºC ~ 35ºC, and relative humidity
between 20% ~ 80%.
‹ Liquids and corrosive chemicals.
…………………
Notice: If you spill liquid into the Laptop, please turn it off immediately, unplug it from AC power source, and let it dry out
completely before turning it on again.
If the Laptop does not operate correctly after you turn it on again, please kindly contact your local dealer.

User’ Manual
Keeping yourself comfortable
Strain and stress injuries are becoming more common as people spend more time using their Laptops. With a little care and
proper use of the equipment, you can work comfortably throughout the day.
This section provides hints on avoiding strain and stress injuries. For more information, consult books on ergonomics,
repetitive-strain injury, and repetitive-stress syndrome.
Placement of the Laptop
Proper placement of the Laptop and external devices is important to avoid stress-related injuries.
‹ Place the Laptop 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 are using a paper holder, set it at about the same height and distance as the screen.
Seating and posture
When using your Laptop, please maintain good posture with your body relaxed and your weight distributed evenly. Proper
seating is a primary factor for reducing your work strain. Some people find a backless chair is more comfortable than a
conventional chair.
Page 15 of 43
User’ Manual
Correct positioning and posture of Laptop
Whichever type you choose, use the following guidelines to adjust your chair for maximum computing comfort:
‹ Position your chair so that the keyboard is at or slightly below the level of your elbow. You should be able to type
comfortably with your shoulders relaxed and your forearms parallel to the floor.
‹ If you are using a conventional chair:
‹ Your knees should be slightly higher than your hips. If necessary, please use a footrest to raise the level of your knees
and ease the pressure on the back of your thighs.
‹ Adjust the back of your chair so that it supports the lower curve of your spine.
‹ If necessary, please use a cushion to provide extra back support. Lower-back-supported cushions are available at
many office supply stores.
‹ Sit with your back straight so that your knees, hips, and elbows form approximately 90-degree angles when you are
working. DO NOT slump forward or lean back too far.
Lighting
Proper lighting can improve the visibility of the display and reduce eyestrain.
Page 16 of 43
User’ Manual
‹
‹
‹
Position the display panel or external monitor to make sure sunlight or bright indoor lighting does not reflect off the
screen. Also, please use tinted windows or shades to reduce glare.
Please avoid placing your Laptop in front of a bright light that could shine directly in your eyes.
If possible, use soft, indirect lighting in your Laptop work area.
Arms and wrists
‹
‹
To avoid bending, arching, or twisting your wrists,please keep them in a relaxed, natural position while typing.
Exercise your hands, wrists, and arms to improve circulation.
…………………
Notice: Using the Laptop keyboard incorrectly may result in discomfort and possible injury. If your hands, wrists, and/or arms
bother you while typing, stop using the Laptop and rest. If the discomfort persists, please consult a physician.
Work habits
The key to avoid discomfort or injury from strain is to vary your activities. If possible, please schedule a variety of tasks into
your working day. Finding ways to break up the routine can reduce stress and improve your efficiency.
‹ Take frequent breaks to change position, stretch your muscles, and relieve your eyes. A break of two or three minutes
every half-hour is more effective than a long break after several hours.
‹ Avoid performing repetitive activities for long periods. Please intersperse such activities with other tasks.
‹ Focusing your eyes on your Laptop screen for long periods can cause eyestrain. Look away from the Laptop frequently
and focus your eyes on a distant object for at least 30 seconds.
Precautions
Your Laptop is designed to provide optimum safety and ease of use, and to withstand the rigors of travel. You are
recommended to observe certain precautions to further reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the Laptop.
Page 17 of 43
User’ Manual

‹
‹
‹
Avoid prolonged physical contact with the underside of the Laptop. If the Laptop is used for long periods, its case may
become very warm. While the temperature may not feel too hot to the touch, if you maintain physical contact with the
Laptop for a long time (if you rest the Laptop on your lap, for example), your skin might suffer low-heat injury.
Never apply heavy pressure to the Laptop or subject it to sharp impacts. Excessive pressure or impact may damage the
Laptop components or cause your Laptop to malfunction.
Some PC Cards may become hot with prolonged use. If two cards are installed, both may become hot even if only one
is being used. Overheating of a PC Card can result in errors or instability in its operation. So please be careful when you
are removing a PC Card that has been used for a long period.
Avoid spilling liquids into the Laptop’s keyboard. If you do spill a liquid that gets into the keyboard, turn off the Laptop
immediately, then leave the Laptop turned off overnight to let it dry out before you use it again.
Never turn off the Laptop if a drive-in-use light indicates a drive is active. Turning off the Laptop while it is reading from
or writing to a disk may damage the disk, the drive, or both.
Keep the Laptop and disks away from objects that generate strong magnetic fields, such as large stereo speakers.
Information on diskettes is stored magnetically. Placing a magnet too close to a diskette can erase important files.
Scan all new files for viruses.
This precaution is especially important for files you receive via diskette, CD or DVD discs, email, or download from the
Internet. Occasionally, even new programs you buy from a supplier may contain a Laptop virus. You’ll need a special
program to check for viruses. Please ask your local dealer for help if need.

much like a double-click, except that the finger remains on the pad after the second tap: Tap, lift, tap, hold and move.
The simulated button remains held as long as the finger remains on the pad.
…………………
Notice: Keep your fingers dry
Pad dry and clean. Thus the touch pad can be sensitive enough to finger movement. Hence the lighter the touch is, the better
the response is. Tapping too hard will not improve the touch pad responsiveness.

Chapter 5 Power Management
Power Supply of the Laptop is introduced in this chapter. The power supplied to the Laptop comes from the power converted
by AC Adapter from alternative currency or battery pack.
5.1 Ac adapter
The power supplied to the Laptop comes from the power by AC Adapter is used to convert alternative currency to direct
currency to power the Laptop. Insert the plug of adapter into the electricity socket, and then the indicator of the power will
light up.
…………………
Notice: Please read “Taking care of your AC adapter” before using.
…………………
Warning: There are high-voltage components in adapter. To avoid injury to your body, DO NOT disassemble adapter and
repair it.
5.2 Lithium Ion ( Li-Ion) battery pack
Your Laptop uses one battery pack that gives you long use between charges.
Battery pack characteristics
The battery pack has the following characteristics
‹ Employ current battery technology standards
‹ Battery-low warning
Page 34 of 43
User’ Manual
Whenever possible, use the AC adapter. The battery will come in handy when you travel or during a power failure. It is
advisable to have an extra fully-charged battery pack available as backup. Contact your dealer for more details.
Maximizing battery life
Laptop batteries, like all other batteries, are “consumables”. This means that their use is consumed over a period of time, and
that their performance diminishes over this lifecycle. In order to maximize the length of your battery’s life, please read and
adhere to the recommendations set out below.
Conditioning a new battery pack
When using a battery pack for the first time, there is a “conditioning” process that should be followed first before using it with
your Laptop.
‹
Insert the battery into the Laptop. Do not turn the Laptop on.
‹
Connect the AC adapter to a power source (i.e., a power outlet) and to the Laptop and fully recharge the battery.
‹
Disconnect the adapter from the power source.
‹
Use the Laptop on battery power. Do not plug in AC power during this initial use period.
‹
Once the battery is fully depleted of charge while being used (i.e., the Laptop warns you to “switch to AC power”), turn
the Laptop off and follow step 1 again.
…………………
Notice: Repeat these steps two times. Total conditioning process is 3 charges/ discharges.
Use this process with a new battery or with a battery that's been stored without being used for a long time. If the Laptop is to
be stored for more than two weeks, we suggest you remove the battery pack.
…………………
Warning: Do not expose battery packs to temperatures below 0ºC (32ºF) or
Page 35 of 43
above 50ºC (122ºF). This may adversely
User’ Manual
affect the battery pack.
By following this process you will have conditioned your battery to accept the maximum charge possible. Failure to follow this
procedure will not allow you to get the longest possible battery charge from your battery and will also shorten the effective
lifespan of your battery.
The useful life span of the battery is adversely affected by the following usage patterns:
‹ Using the Laptop on constant AC power, while the battery is inserted in the Laptop. If you are to use the Laptop on AC
power constantly, please remove the battery from the unit after it is fully charged.
‹ Not discharging/recharging the battery to its extremes as explained in "Conditioning a new battery pack" above.
‹ Frequency of use (the more you use the battery, the faster it will reach the end of its effective life cycle). A standard
Laptop battery has a life span of about 500 charges.
Charging the battery
To charge the battery, slide the battery pack into the battery bay and plug the AC adapter into the Laptop and an electrical
outlet.
Charging modes
The adapter has two charging modes:
‹ Rapid mode
The Laptop uses rapid charging when power is turned off and a powered AC adapter is connected to it. In rapid mode, a fully
depleted battery gets fully charged in approximately 3 hours.
‹ Charge-in-use mode
When the Laptop is in use with the AC adapter plugged in, the Laptop also charges the battery pack if installed. This mode
will take longer to fully charge a battery than rapid mode. In charge-in-use mode, a fully depleted battery gets fully charged in
approximately 4.5 hours.
…………………

User’ Manual
Tips: We suggest that you charge the battery pack before retiring for the day, letting it charge overnight before traveling. This
ensures a fully charged battery for use the next day.
Checking the battery level
Using the Windows battery meter:
The Windows battery meter indicates the present battery level. Simply rest your cursor on the battery meter (or AC plug) icon
on the taskbar to see the present charge level of your battery.
Optimizing battery life
This section helps you get the most out of battery operation. Optimizing battery life prolongs the charge/recharge cycle and
improves recharge efficiency. Follow these suggestions to optimize and maximize battery power:
‹ Purchase an extra battery pack.
‹ Use the AC adapter whenever possible so that the battery is reserved for on-the-go computing.
‹ Keep the battery pack in the Laptop powered by the AC adapter. The constant trickle charge maintains the battery level
to eliminate the battery self-discharge effect. The charge-in-use function also charges the battery pack.
‹ Disable the parallel port if no devices are connected to this port. You can do this through the BIOS Setup Utility.
‹ Eject the PC Card from the slot when it is not in use, since the PC Card draws extra power.
‹ Store the battery pack in a cool, dry place. The recommended storage temperature for battery packs ranges from 10 to
30 degrees centigrade. The higher the storage temperature, the faster the battery pack self-discharges.
‹ The batteries can be recharged about 300 times when used as directed. Excessive recharging decreases battery life.
‹ Take care of your battery pack and AC adapter. See “Taking care of your Laptop”.
Battery-low warning
You never need to worry about battery power as long as you are using the AC adapter. However, when you operate the
Laptop on battery power, pay extra attention to the battery gauge on the status LCD.
