Things you must remember before working on your computer
Let your computer acclimate itself
Your notebook can easily stand temperature extremes but it doesn’t like rapid
changes in temperature, like going from the cold outdoors to a warm office. Rapid
changes in temperature can cause water droplets to condense inside your case,
threatening to damage the electronic parts inside.
After receiving your notebook when it’s hot or cold outside, try not to power up the
computer immediately, let the computer adjust to the room temperature gradually at
least for three to four hours.
If your system arrives in cold weather, do not apply power to the
computer or monitor until they have been allowed to come to room
temperature.
Heat, Cold, Humidity, and Glare
Find a suitable place for your computer that’s not too hot, too cold, too dark, or too
bright. Glare can make it hard to read the screen.
• Try to avoid the computer components from being destroyed if it is over heated,
so try to allow plenty of room for air to circulate around the case.
• Do not block the ventilation opening.
• Do not place your computer in direct sunlight.
14
Suitable place to work
Your computer will run well wherever you’re comfortable but extremes of
temperature and humidity can be challenging to your system’s parts.
There are some things you can tolerate that the computer can’t – things like static
electricity, dust, water, steam and oil. In case you decide to pull over for roadside
computing, try to choose a clean, comfortable work area for your system.
A lithium-ion battery pack will be available when you are traveling. If you are
running your system for the first time on battery power, remove the battery from the
package, install it into the system and recharge the battery to fully prepare for service.

The best kind of AC power source to connect your Notebook to is a
UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply). Lacking this, use a power strip
with a built-in surge protector. Do not use inferior extension cords as
this may result in damage to your Notebook. The Notebook comes
with its own AC adapter. Do not use a different adapter to power the
computer and other electrical devices.
Whenever possible, keep the AC adapter plugged into the Notebook and an electrical
outlet to recharge the battery.
32
Never turn off or reset your Notebook while the hard disk is in use and
the HDD status icon is lit; doing so can result in loss or destruction of
your data. Always wait at least 5 seconds after turning off your

rapid succession can damage the Notebook’s electrical circuitry.
Turning On Your Notebook Computer
Turn on your Notebook by pressing the power button. Hold the button down for a
second or two and release. The Power-On Self Test (POST) runs automatically.
After the POST is completed, the computer reads the operating system from the hard
disk drive into computer memory (this is commonly referred to as “booting” a
computer). If your OS (Operating System such as Windows XP…. etc) is installed,
it should start automatically.
To turn the Notebook off, save your work and close all open applications, click on
Start, then select the “Turn off the computer”. A selection box will be displayed and
click on the “Turn Off” button to shut down your computer.
When your computer hangs up, press the power button for 4-6 seconds
to shut down the computer

computer without an external power source. When the battery pack is fully charged,
you can operate the computer for approximately 2 hours under the following
conditions:
• The battery pack initially has a full charge.
• No peripheral devices are installed.
33
•
The disk/CD-ROM drives run no more than 10% of the time.
Only use batteries that are approved by an authorized dealer. All
batteries are not the same and therefore should not be treated as such.
Using the wrong battery could cause serious damage to your computer
and yourself through toxic emissions.
Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack
The battery pack should already be inserted in your Notebook computer when you
unpack it. If not inserted, follow these directions:
1.
2.
3.

A Tour of the Notebook’s Keyboard
The Notebook’s keyboard uses a standard QWERTY layout with the addition of
special function keys and an embedded numeric keypad for number intensive data
entry. Your keyboard supports Windows by incorporating the two Windows specific
keys. With the two Windows keys you will be able to access and take advantage of
many of the timesaving features of Windows software.
The function keys (F1-F12) on the top row of the keyboard, serve different purposes
and carry out different tasks depending on the application you are running.
The cursor (arrow) keys (which are all located in the lower right corner of your
keyboard) and the [PgUp], [PgDn], [Home] and [End] keys (which are located along
the right edge of the keyboard) allow you to move the active cursor of the computer
to various locations on the screen or within the document.
The embedded numeric keypad consists of 15 keys that make number intensive input
more convenient. Like the [Num Lock] key, these keys are labeled in blue on the
keycaps. Numeric assignments are located at the upper right of each key.
When the numeric keypad is engaged, the NumLock icon will appear in the System
Window. The keypad is activated by pressing the [Fn] + [NumLk] key. If an
external keyboard is connected, pressing the NumLock key on either the Notebook or
