Chapter 2
Operating Your Computer
This chapter provides information about the use of the computer.
If you are new to computers, reading this chapter will help you learn the operating
basics. If you are already a computer user, you may choose to read only the parts
containing information unique to your computer.
CAUTION:
 Do not expose your skin to the computer when operating it
in a very hot or cold environment.
 The computer can get uncomfortably warm when you use it in
high temperatures. As a safety precaution in such a
circumstance, do not place the computer on your lap or touch
it with your bare hands for extended periods of time.
Prolonged body contact can cause discomfort and potentially
a burn.
15
Using the Keyboard
Your keyboard has all the standard functions of a full-sized computer keyboard plus
an Fn key added for specific functions.
The standard functions of the keyboard can be further divided into four major
categories:

Typewriter keys

Cursor-control keys

Numeric keys

Function keys
Typewriter Keys
Typewriter keys are similar to the keys on a typewriter. Several keys are added
such as the Ctrl, Alt, Esc, and lock keys for special purposes.
The Control (Ctrl) / Alternate (Alt) key is normally used in combination with other
keys for program-specific functions. The Escape (Esc) key is usually used for
stopping a process. Examples are exiting a program and canceling a command.
The function depends on the program you are using.
Cursor-Control Keys
Cursor-control keys are generally used for moving and editing purposes.
16
NOTE: The word “cursor” refers to the indicator on the screen
that lets you know exactly where on your screen anything you
type will appear. It can take the form of a vertical or
horizontal line, a block, or one of many other shapes.
Numeric Keypad
Numeric keys facilitate entering of numbers and calculations. When Num Lock is
on, the numeric keys are activated; meaning you can use these keys to enter
numerals.
When Num Lock is off, the keys serve as cursor-control keys.
17
Function Keys
On the top row of the keys are the function keys: F1 to F12. Function keys are
multi-purpose keys that perform functions defined by individual programs.
Fn Key
The Fn key, at the lower left corner of the keyboard, is used with another key
to perform the alternative function of a key. To perform a desired function, first press
and hold Fn, then press the other key.
Hot Keys
Hot keys refer to a combination of keys that can be pressed any time to activate
special functions of the computer. Most hot keys operate in a cyclic way. Each
time a hot key combination is pressed, it shifts the corresponding function to the
other or next choice.
You can easily identify the hot keys with the icons imprinted on the keytop. The
hot keys are described next.
Key
Description
Switches the keyboard backlight on and off (option).
Switches the RF (radio frequency) radio on or off.
When off, all wireless modules (such as WLAN, Bluetooth, and
WWAN) cannot be used. When on, individual settings of the
module work.
Decreases the sound volume.
Increases the sound volume.
Increases the LCD brightness.
18
Key
Description
Decreases the LCD brightness.
Switches the system sound output off (mute) or on.
Switches the display off or on.
Switches the display output to the next choice if an external display
is connected. Choices are:
LCD only
LCD + External display (Duplicate)
LCD + External display (Extend)
External display only
The hot keys are equivalent to
Windows logo key + P.
NOTE:
 Display resolution remains unchanged when you
switch the display output using this hot key
combination.
 This hot key combination does not function
during the playback of DVD or MPEG files by
certain applications.
 This hot key combination does not function in
full screen DOS mode.
Serves as the sleep button that you can define with Windows’
Power Options.
NOTE:
 If you have changed your system from the default ACPI mode
to APM mode, the hot keys Fn+F3, Fn+F4, and Fn+F10 will not
be supported.
 The operating system might ignore the hot keys when busy with
tasks. Do not keep on pressing the hot keys under such
circumstance. Wait for a while before you try again.
19
Windows Keys
The keyboard has two keys that perform Windows-specific functions:
Logo key and
Application key.
Windows
The
Windows Logo key opens the Start menu and performs softwarespecific functions when used in combination with other keys. The
Application
key usually has the same effect as a right mouse click.
20
Using the Touchpad
CAUTION: Do not use a sharp object such as a pen on the touchpad.
Doing so may damage the touchpad surface.
NOTE: For optimal performance of the touchpad, keep your fingers
and the pads clean and dry. When tapping on the pad, tap lightly.
Do not use excessive force.
The touchpad is a pointing device that allows you to communicate with the computer
by controlling the location of the pointer on the screen and making selection with
the buttons.
The touchpad consists of a rectangular pad (work surface) and a left and right
buttons. To use the touchpad, place your forefinger or thumb on the pad. The
rectangular pad acts like a miniature duplicate of your display. As you slide your
fingertip across the pad, the pointer (also called cursor) on the screen moves
accordingly. When your finger reaches the edge of the pad, simply relocate yourself
by lifting the finger and placing it on the other side of the pad.
21
Here are some common terms that you should know when using the touchpad:
Term
Action
Point
Move your finger on the pad until the cursor points to the selection
on the screen.
Click
Press and release the left button.
–or–
Tap gently anywhere on the pad.
Double-click
Press and release the left button twice in quick succession.
–or–
Tap twice on the pad rapidly.
Drag and
drop
Press and hold the left button, then move your finger until you
reach your destination (drag). Finally, release the button (drop)
when you finish dragging your selection to the destination. The
object will drop into the new location.
–or–
Gently tap twice on the pad and on the second tap, keep your
finger in contact with the pad. Then, move your finger across the
pad to drag the selected object to your destination. When you lift
your finger from the pad, the selected object will drop into place.
Configuring the Touchpad
You may want to configure the touchpad to suit your needs. For example, if you
are a left-handed user, you can swap the two buttons so that you can use the
right button as the left button and vice versa. You can also change the size of
the on-screen pointer, the speed of the pointer, and so on.
To configure the touchpad, go to Settings  Devices  Mouse & touchpad.
22
Using the Touchscreen (Optional)
CAUTION: Do not use a sharp object such as a ballpoint pen or
pencil on the touchscreen. Doing so may damage the touchscreen
surface.
The touchscreen is a touch-sensitive device that allows you to navigate on the screen
without using a keyboard, touchpad, or mouse.
Use the included stylus to select objects on the screen. The stylus can be stretched
for better grip and handling.
The following table shows how you use the touchscreen to obtain equivalent mouse
functions.

 When you disconnect the AC adapter, disconnect from the
electrical outlet first and then from the computer. A reverse
procedure may damage the AC adapter or computer.
 When unplugging the connector, always hold the plug head.
Never pull on the cord.
The AC adapter serves as a converter from AC (Alternating Current) to DC (Direct
Current) power because your computer runs on DC power, but an electrical outlet
usually provides AC power. It also charges the battery pack when connected to AC
power.
The adapter operates on any voltage in the range of 100~240 V AC.
39
Battery Pack
The battery pack is the internal power source for the computer. It is rechargeable
using the AC adapter.
The operating time of a fully charged battery pack depends on how you are using
the computer. When your applications often access peripherals, you will experience
a shorter operating time.
NOTE: Care and maintenance information for the battery is
provided in the “Battery Pack Guidelines” section in Chapter
7.
Charging the Battery Pack
NOTE:
 Charging will not start if the battery’s temperature is below
0 C (32 F) or above 40 C (104 F); the charging process
will stop if the battery’s temperature gets above 60 C (140
F). To avoid damaging the battery under this situation,
disconnect the AC adapter and wait for the battery to return
to room temperature before charging again.
 During charging, do not disconnect the AC adapter before the
battery has been fully charged; otherwise you will get a
prematurely charged battery.
 The battery level may automatically lessen due to the
self-discharge process, even when the battery pack is fully
charged. This happens no matter if the battery pack is
installed in the computer.
To charge the battery pack, connect the AC adapter to the computer and an electrical
outlet. The Battery Charge Indicator (
) on the computer glows amber to indicate
that charging is in progress. You are advised to keep the computer power off while
the battery is being charged. When the battery is fully charged, the Battery Charge
Indicator glows green.
It takes approximately 4 hours to fully charge the Li-Ion battery pack when the
computer is off, and approximately 7 hours to fully charge the battery pack when
the computer is on.
40
CAUTION: After the computer has been fully recharged, do not
immediately disconnect and reconnect the AC adapter to charge
it again. Doing so may damage the battery.
Initializing the Battery Pack
You need to initialize a new battery pack before using it for the first time or when
the actual operating time of a battery pack is much less than expected. Initializing
is the process of fully charging, discharging, and then charging. It can take several
hours.
A software tool called “Gauge Reset” is provided for the purpose. Use the G-Manager
program and select the Battery tab to find the tool.
Checking the Battery Level
NOTE: Any battery level indication is an estimated result. The
actual operating time can be different from the estimated time,
depending on how you are using the computer.
By Operating System
You can check the approximate battery level using the battery meter function of the
operating system. To read the battery level in Windows, click the battery icon on the
taskbar.

depends on product specifications.)

Avoid placing the computer in a location subject to high humidity, extreme
temperatures, mechanical vibration, direct sunlight, or heavy dust. Using the
computer in extreme environments for long periods can result in product
deterioration and a shortened product life.

Operating in an environment with metallic dust is not allowed.

Place the computer on a flat and steady surface. Do not stand the computer
on its side or store it in an upside-down position. A strong impact by dropping
or hitting may damage the computer.

Do not cover or block any ventilation openings on the computer. For example,
do not place the computer on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
Otherwise, overheating may occur that results in damage to the computer.

As the computer can become very hot during operation, keep it away from objects
that are vulnerable to heat.

Keep the computer at least 13 cm (5 inches) away from electrical appliances
that can generate a strong magnetic field such as a TV, refrigerator, motor,
or a large audio speaker.

Avoid moving the computer abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A temperature
difference of more than 10 C (18 F) may cause condensation inside the unit,
which may damage the storage media.
General Guidelines

Do not place heavy objects on top of the computer when it is closed as this
may damage the display.
69

Do not move the computer simply by grasping the display screen.

The screen surface is easily scratched. Do not use paper towels to clean the
display but use the included soft cloth.

LCD image sticking occurs when a fixed pattern is displayed on the screen for
a prolonged period of time. You can avoid the problem by limiting the amount
of static content on the display. It is recommended that you use a screen saver
or turn off the display when it is not in use.

To maximize the life of the backlight in the display, allow the backlight to
automatically turn off as a result of power management.
Cleaning Guidelines

Never clean the computer with its power on.

Use a soft cloth moistened with water or a non-alkaline detergent to wipe the
exterior of the computer.

Gently wipe the display with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Dust or grease on the touchpad can affect its sensitivity. Clean the pad by
using adhesive tape to remove the dust and grease on its surface.

If water or liquid is split onto the computer, wipe it dry and clean when possible.
Though your computer is water-proof, do not leave the computer wet when you
can dry it.

If the computer gets wet where the temperature is 0C (32F) or below, freeze
damage may occur. Make sure to dry the wet computer.
Battery Pack Guidelines

Recharge the battery pack when it is nearly discharged. When recharging, make
sure that the battery pack is fully charged. Doing so may avoid harm to the
battery pack.
70

The battery pack is a consumable product and the following conditions will shorten
its life:
– when frequently charging the battery pack
– when using, charging, or storing in high temperature condition

To avoid hastening the deterioration of the battery pack thereby prolonging its
useful life, minimize the number of times you charge it so as not to frequently
increase its internal temperature.

Charge the battery pack between 10 C ~ 30 C (50 F ~ 86 F) temperature
range. A higher environment temperature will cause the battery pack’s temperature
to rise. Avoid charging the battery pack inside a closed vehicle and in hot weather
condition. Also, charging will not start if the battery pack is not within the allowed
temperature range.

It is recommended that you do not charge the battery pack more than once
a day.

It is recommended that you charge the battery pack with the computer’s power
off.

To maintain the battery pack’s operating efficiency, store it in a cool dark place
removed from the computer and with 30 % ~ 40 % charge remaining.

Important guidelines when using the battery pack.
When installing or removing the battery pack take note of the following:
– avoid installing or removing the battery pack when the computer is in
Sleep mode. Abruptly removing the battery pack may cause loss of
data or the computer may become unstable.
– avoid touching the battery pack terminals or damage may occur,
thereby causing improper operation to it or the computer.
The computer’s input voltage and surrounding temperature will directly affect the
battery pack’s charge and discharge time:
– charging time will be prolonged when the computer is turned on.
To shorten the charging time, it is recommended that you place the
computer in sleep or hibernation mode.
– a low temperature will prolong the charging time as well as hasten
the discharge time.
71

When using battery power in an extremely low temperature environment, you may
experience shortened operating time and incorrect battery level reading. This
phenomenon comes from the chemical characteristics of batteries. The appropriate
operating temperature for the battery is -10 C ~ 50 C (14 F ~ 122 F).

Do not leave the battery pack in storage for more than six months without
recharging it.
Touchscreen Guidelines

Use the finger or stylus on the display. Using a sharp or metallic object other
than your finger or stylus may cause scratches and damage the display, thereby
causing errors.

Use a soft cloth to remove dirt on the display. The touchscreen surface has
a special protective coating that prevents dirt from sticking to it. Not using a
soft cloth may cause damage to the special protective coating on the touchscreen
surface.

Turn off the computer power when cleaning the display. Cleaning the display
with the power on may cause improper operation.

Do not use excessive force on the display. Avoid placing objects on top of the
display as this may cause the glass to break thereby damaging the display.

Using the touchscreen during low temperature (below 5 oC / 41 F) may
cause a slower response time, this is normal. A normal response time may
be restored upon returning to room temperature.

When there is noticeable discrepancy in the operation of the touchscreen function
(wrong location on intended operation or improper display resolution), refer to
the Windows online Help for instructions on recalibrating the touchscreen display.
72
When Traveling

Before traveling with your computer, make a backup of your hard disk data into
flash disks or other storage devices. As an added precaution, bring along an
extra copy of your important data.

Make sure that the battery pack is fully charged.

Make sure that the computer is turned off and the top cover is securely closed.

Make sure that all the connector covers are closed completely to ensure the
waterproof integrity.

Do not leave objects in between the keyboard and closed display.

Disconnect the AC adapter from the computer and take it with you. Use the
AC adapter as the power source and as a battery-charger.

Hand-carry the computer. Do not check it in as luggage.

If you need to leave the computer in the car, put it in the trunk of the car
to avoid exposing the computer to excessive heat.

When going through airport security, it is recommended that you send the
computer and flash disks through the X-ray machine (the device you set your
bags on). Avoid the magnetic detector (the device you walk through) or the
magnetic wand (the handheld device used by security personnel).

If you plan to travel abroad with your computer, consult your dealer for the
appropriate AC power cord for use in your country of destination.

ENERGY STAR 6.1
ENERGY STAR® is a government program that offers businesses and consumers
energy-efficient solutions, making it easy to save money while protecting the
environment for future generations.
Please reference ENERGY STAR® related information from
http://www.energystar.gov.
As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, Getac Technology Corporation has determined that
this product meets the ENERGY STAR ® guidelines for energy efficiency.
An ENERGY STAR® qualified computer uses 70 % less electricity than computers without
enabled power management features.
Earning the ENERGY STAR®

When every home office is powered by equipment that has earned the ENERGY
STAR® , the change will keep over 289 billion pounds of greenhouse gases out
of the air.

If left inactive, ENERGY STAR® qualified computers enter a low-power mode
and may use 15 watts or less. New chip technologies make power management
features more reliable, dependable, and user-friendly than even just a few years
ago.

Spending a large portion of time in low-power mode not only saves energy,
but helps equipment run cooler and last longer.
101

Businesses that use ENERGY STAR® enabled office equipment may realize
additional savings on air conditioning and maintenance.

Over its lifetime, ENERGY STAR® qualified equipment in a single home office
(e.g., computer, monitor, printer, and fax) can save enough electricity to light
an entire home for more than 4 years.

Power management (“sleep settings”) on computers and monitors can result
in much savings annually.
Remember, saving energy prevents pollution
Because most computer equipment is left on 24 hours a day, power management
features are important for saving energy and are an easy way to reduce air pollution.
By using less energy, these products help lower consumers’ utility bills, and prevent
greenhouse gas emissions.
Getac Product Compliance
All Getac products with ENERGY STAR® logo comply with the ENERGY STAR®
standard, and the power management feature is enabled by default. As recommended
by the ENERGY STAR® program for optimal energy savings, the computer is
automatically set to sleep after 15 minutes (in battery mode) and 30 minutes (in
AC mode) of user inactivity. To wake up the computer, press the power button.
If you want to configure power management settings such as inactivity time and
ways to initiate/end Sleep mode, go to Power Options by right-clicking the battery
icon on the Windows taskbar and then selecting Power Options in the pop-up menu.
Please visit http://www.energystar.gov/powermanagement for detail information on
power management and its benefits to the environment.
