Check with your local solid waste officials for details about recycling options or for proper disposal in your area. Conserving Battery Power Efficient battery power is critical to maintain a normal operation. If the battery power is not managed well, the saved data and customized settings may be lost. Follow these tips to help optimizing battery life and avoid a sudden power loss. Suspend system operation if the system will be idle for a while or shorten the Suspend Timer’s time period. Turn off the system if you won’t be using it for a period of time. Disable unneeded settings or remove idle peripherals to conserve power. Connect an AC adapter to the system whenever possible. 2-20 L725 Getting Started Charging the Battery Pack The battery pack can be recharged while it is installed in the Notebook. Please pay attention to the following tips before recharging the battery: If a charged battery pack is not available, save your work and close all running programs and shut down the system or Save-to-Disk. Plug in an external AC/DC power source. You can use the system, suspend system operation or shut down and turn off the system without interrupting the charging process. The battery pack uses Lithium-ion battery cells that have no “memory effect.” You do not need to discharge the battery pack before you begin charging. However, to optimize the life of battery, we suggest that consuming the battery power completely once a month is necessary. If you do not use the Notebook for a long time, it is suggested to remove the battery pack from your Notebook. This may be helpful to extend your battery life. The actual charging time will be determined by the applications in use. 2-21 L725 Getting Started Basic Operations If you are a beginner to the Notebook, please read the following tips to make yourself safe and comfortable during the operations. Safety and Comfort Tips The Notebook is a portable platform that allows you to work anywhere. However, choosing a good workspace is important if you have to work with your Notebook for long periods of time. Your work area should have enough illumination. Choose the proper desk and chair and adjust their height to fit your posture when operating. When sitting on the chair and adjust the chair’s back (if available) to support your back comfortably. Place you feet flat and naturally on the floor, so that your knees and elbows have the proper position (about 90-degree) when operating. Put your hands on the desk naturally to support your wrists. Adjust the angle/position of the LCD panel, so that you can have the optimal view. Avoid using your Notebook in the space where may cause your discomfort (such as on the bed). The Notebook is an electrical device, please treat it with great care to avoid personal injury. 2-22 L725 Getting Started Adjust the angle and position of LCD panel. Keep your hands and feet with optimal comfort. Sit straight and keep a good posture. Adjust the desk’s height. Adjust the chair’s height.

Remember to take breaks after working for a period of time. 2-23 L725 Getting Started Knowing the Keyboard The Notebook’s keyboard provides all the functions of a full-sized keyboard and an additional [Fn] key for specific functions on the Notebook. The keyboard can be divided into four categories: Typewriter keys, Cursor keys, Numeric keys and Function keys. 2-24 L725 Getting Started Typewriter Keys The function of these Typewriter keys is the major function of the keyboard, which is similar to the keys on a typewriter. It also provides several keys for special purposes, such as the [Ctrl], [Alt] and [Esc] key. When the lock keys are pressed, the corresponding LEDs will light up to indicate their status: Num Lock: Press and hold the [Fn] key and press this key to toggle the Num Lock on and off. When this function is activated, you can use the numeric keys that are embedded in the typewriter keys. Caps Lock: Press this key to toggle the Caps Lock on and off. When this function is activated, the letters you type are kept in uppercase. Scroll Lock: Press and hold the [Fn] key and press this key to toggle the Scroll Lock on and off. This function is defined by individual programs, and it is usually used under DOS. 2-25 L725 Getting Started Cursor Keys The keyboard provides four cursor (arrow) keys and [Home], [PgUp], [PgDn], [End] keys at the lower right corner, which are used to control the cursor movement. Move the cursor left for one space. Move the cursor right for one space. Move the cursor up for one line. Move the cursor down for one line. Move to the previous page. Move to the next page. Move to the beginning of the line (or document). Move to the end of the line (or document). 2-26 L725 Getting Started The Backspace key, [Ins] and [Del] keys at upper right corner are use for editing purpose. This key is used to switch the typing mode between “insert” and “overtype” modes. Press this key to delete one character to the right of the cursor and move the following text left for one space. Press this key to delete one character to the left of the cursor and move the following text left for one space. Numeric Keys The keyboard provides a set of numeric keypad, which is embedded in the typewriter keys. When the Num Lock is activated, you can use these numeric keys to enter numbers and calculations. 2-27 L725 Getting Started Function Keys Windows Keys You can find the Windows Logo key ( ) and one Application Logo key ) on the keyboard, which are used to perform Windows-specific functions, such as opening the Start menu and launching the shortcut menu. For more information of the two keys, please refer to your Windows manual or online help. [Fn] Key Switch the display output mode between the LCD, external monitor and Both. Enable or disable the touchpad function. Decrease the LCD brightness. Increase the LCD brightness. Decrease the built-in speaker’s volume. Increase the built-in speaker’s volume. Disable the computer’s audio function. Force the computer into suspend mode (depending on the system configuration). 2-28 L725 Getting Started Knowing the Touchpad The touchpad integrated in your Notebook is a pointing device that is compatible with standard mouse, allowing you to control the Notebook by pointing the location of the cursor on the screen and making selection with its two buttons. 1. Cursor Movement Area This pressure-sensitive area of the touchpad, allows you to place your finger on it and control the cursor on the screen by moving your finger. 2. Right Button Acts as the mouse’s right button. 3. Left Button Acts as the mouse’s left button. 2-29 L725 Getting Started Using the Touchpad Read the following description to learn how to use the touchpad: Positioning and Moving Place your finger on the touchpad (usually using the forefinger), and the rectangular pad will act as a miniature duplicate of your display. When you move your fingertip across the pad, the cursor on the screen will move simultaneously in the same direction. When your finger reaches the edge of the pad, lift your finger and replace it on a proper location of the touchpad. Point and Click When you have moved and placed the cursor over an icon, a menu item or a command that you want to execute, simply tap slightly on the touchpad or press the left button to select. This procedure, called as point and click is the basics of operating your Notebook. Unlike the traditional pointing device such as the mouse, the whole touchpad can act as a left button, so that your each tap on the touchpad is equivalent to pressing the left button. Tapping twice more rapidly on the touchpad is to execute a double-click. Drag and Drop You can move files or objects in your Notebook by using drag-and-drop. To do so, place the cursor on the desired item and slightly tap twice on the touchpad, and then keep your fingertip in contact with the touchpad on the second tap. Now, you can drag the selected item to the desired location by moving your finger on the touchpad, and then lift your finger from the touchpad to drop the item into place. Alternately, you can press and hold the left button when you select an item, and then move your finger to the 2-30 L725 Getting Started desired location; finally, release the left button to finish the drag-and-drop operation. Using the Touchpad Move the cursor by sliding your fingertip. Put your wrist on the desk comfortably. 2-31 L725 Getting Started Configuring the Touchpad You can customize the pointing device to meet your personal needs. For example, if you are a left-hand user, you may want to swap the functions of the two buttons. In addition, you can change the size, shape, moving speed and other advanced features of the cursor on the screen. To configure the touchpad, you can use the standard Microsoft or IBM PS/2 driver in your Windows operating system. The Mouse Properties in Control Panel allows you to change the configuration.
