The Setup program can be accessed when you power on the system and pressing the <F2> function key before the Microsoft® Windows® operating system begins. The settings that you specify within the Setup program are recorded in a special area memory called the CMOS RAM. This memory is backed up by a battery so that is will not be erased when you turn off or reset the system. Whenever you turn on the Netbook, the system will read the settings stored in the CMOS RAM and compare them to the equipment check conducted during the Power On Self Test (POST). If an error occurs, an error message will be displayed on the screen, and you will then be prompted to run the Setup Program. Press the <F2> key to run the BIOS Setup program. The BIOS Setup program is organized into five menus which you can select using the <-- and --> keys. To move from one option to another, you use the up and down arrow keys while using the <F5> and <F6>, or <+>and <-> keys to change the settings. On the right hand side of the screen are some brief help descriptions of each item you want to change. On the BIOS Setup program, you will find the following parts on the screen: • Item Specific Help The right side of the screen. This area describes each parameter and its available settings.
Customizing Your Mini-note 5 73  • Menu Bar The top line of the screen. Each of the five selections displays its own screen. • Parameters The left side of the screen.

System Specification A  83  6  Caring for Your Netbook   Your Netbook the latest features in mobile computing and multimedia technology. If properly cared for and maintained, the performance and reliability of the Netbook can be greatly prolonged.
Mini-note User Guide 84  6.1  Important Safety Instructions This section gives you detailed information about how to maintain a safe working environment while using the Netbook. You can maintain its condition and performance by following these guidelines. Please read it carefully to ensure maximum safety. • Before cleaning the Netbook, make sure it is disconnected from any external power supplies (i.e. AC adapter, car adapter and so on). • When cleaning, do not use liquid or spray detergent for cleaning.  Instead, use moisture sheet or a cloth for cleaning. • The socket-outlet shall be installed near the Netbook and shall be easily accessible. • Please keep the Netbook away from humidity. • Lay the Netbook on a reliable flat surface when operating. A drop or fall may cause injury. • The openings on the enclosure are for air convection hence the Netbook can be protected from overheating. DO NOT COVER THE OPENINGS. • Be careful of using power supply. The Netbook has specific power requirements. • Use only a power adapter approved for use with this Netbook. • While unplugging the power cord, disconnect it by the plug head, not by its wire. • Make sure the socket and any extension cords you may use can support the total current load of all the connected devices.
System Specification A  85  • Though your AC adapter is suitable for universal international voltage, it still requires a stable and continual power supply. Make sure the voltage of the power source when connect the Netbook to the power outlet. If your are not sure of your local power specifications, consult your dealer or local power company. • Place the power cord in such a way that people can not step on it.  Do not place anything over the power cord. • All cautions and warnings on the Netbook should be noted. • If the Netbook is not in use for a long time, disconnect it from mains to avoid possible damage by transient over-voltage. • Never pour any liquid into openings as this may cause fire or electrical shock. • Never open the body of Netbook. For safety reason, the Netbook should only be opened by qualified service personnel. • If one of the following situations arises, have the Netbook checked by service personnel:  The power cord or plug is damaged.  Liquid has penetrated into the Netbook.  The Netbook has been exposed to moisture.  The Netbook has not worked well or you can not get it work according to user’s manual.  The Netbook has dropped and damaged.  The Netbook shows signs of breakage. • Do not leave or store this Netbook in an environment unconditioned.  Storage temperature above 60ºC (140ºF) may damage the Netbook.
Mini-note User Guide 86  • An approved power cord has to be used for the Netbook power supply.  For a rated current up to 6A and an equipment weight more than 3kg, a power cord not lighter than H05VV-F, 2G, 0.75mm2, has to be used. • To avoid any damage to the internal device, please disconnect the AC adapter first and remove the battery pack from the Netbook when replacing any internal device. 6.2  Cleaning Your Netbook When it is necessary to clean the plastic case and keyboard, use a soft, lint-free cloth, slightly dampened with a mild detergent solution or use the contents of any commercially available Netbook cleaning kit. Never use alcohol, petroleum-based solvents, or harsh detergents to clean the Netbook. Also never spray any liquids directly on the Netbook case, keyboard, or screen. If the liquid-crystal display (LCD) screen has become smeared or dusty, clean the screen by first applying a mild glass cleaner to a soft, clean, lint-free cloth, and gently wipe the glass. Never apply liquids directly on the screen surface. Moreover, do not use paper towels to clean the display screen. Paper can scratch the display screen matte. 6.3  Maintaining the LCD Quality When it comes to screen problems, heat plays a significant role. After a typical working session, users routinely close the Netbook the cover. The display surface - no matter what type it is - and the components inside the Netbook radiate heat; when you close the cover, you trap the heat against the screen. To help prolong the life of your Netbook, leave the cover open for ten minutes to let the heat disperses. (while the heat disperses.)
System Specification A  87  You should also enable the power management of your Netbook to turn off the LCD power and display when the system is inactive for some time.  Adding a screen saver also helps prolong the life of your Netbook screen. Follow the safety guidelines mentioned earlier and how to clean your Netbook. 6.4  Maintaining Your Hard Disk Losing your data has the same consequences as a system break down. Users must make it a habit of doing hard disk maintenance every week or so. Here is some maintenance you could do: • Always back up your data files from your hard disk. • Install the virus detecting program to monitor virus that could tamper your files. • Use SCANDISK occasionally to correct any errors found in the directory and File Allocation Table. This will also free up space from any unused sectors. • Never move or raise the Netbook while the hard disk is being accessed, most especially don't jar the hard disk as this may cause a hard disk crash. • Use hard disk maintenance programs like Disk Defragmenter of Windows. These reorganize your hard disk by eliminating fragmentation and improving your hard disk access time. • Install a system password in your Netbook so others won't be able to use the hard disk.
