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 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.
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.

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.
Scroll
To scroll is to move up and down or left and right in the
working area on the screen.
This function works only after you install the touchpad
driver supplied with the computer and it may not work for
all applications.
TABLE NOTE: If you swap the left and right buttons, “tapping” on the touchpad as an alternative
method of pressing the left button will no longer be valid.
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.

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).
NOTE: The charging process will stop and the Battery Charge Indicator flashes red when the
battery’s temperature gets above 60 °C (140 °F). If this happens, the battery pack may be
damaged. Please contact your dealer.
NOTE: During charging, do not disconnect the AC adapter before the battery has been fully
charged; otherwise you will get a prematurely charged battery.
To charge the battery pack, connect the AC adapter to the computer and an
electrical outlet. The Battery Charge Indicator ( ) on the computer glows in
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 in green.
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.
NOTE: The battery level may automatically lessen due to the self-discharge process (0.21 % per
day), even when the battery pack is fully charged (100 %). This happens no matter if the battery
pack is installed in the computer.
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.
Managing Power
3-3
Initializing is the process of fully charging, discharging, and then charging. It
can take several hours.
1. Make sure that the computer power is turned off. Connect the AC adapter to
fully charge the battery pack.
2. After the battery pack is fully charged, turn on the computer. Press the Del
key when the BIOS logo screen shows during the system startup to display
the BIOS Setup main screen.
3. Disconnect the AC adapter and leave the computer on until the battery is
fully discharged. The computer will shut down automatically.
4. Connect the AC adapter to fully charge the battery pack.
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.
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 icon on

Replacing the Battery Pack
CAUTION:
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace the battery only
with the computer manufacturer’s optional battery packs. Discard used batteries according to
the dealer’s instructions.
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack.
If you often rely on battery power for a long period of time while traveling, you
may consider the purchase of an additional battery pack from your dealer and
keep it with you in a fully charged state as a backup.
To replace the battery pack:
1. Make sure that computer is not turned on or connected to AC power.
2. Place the computer upside down.

Immediately save your data upon Battery Low. The remaining operating time
depends on how you are using the computer. If you are using the audio
subsystem, hard or USB flash disk, the battery might run out of charge very
quickly.
Always respond to Battery Low by placing your computer in Hibernation mode,
turning off the computer, or connecting the AC adapter.
CAUTION: If you fail to save your data when the battery completely runs out of charge, then you
lose your data.
Managing Power

Power Management
Your computer supports ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface)
for power management. The power management feature allows you to reduce
the power consumption for energy saving.
With an ACPI-compliant operating system such as Windows XP, power supply
to different computer components is controlled on an as-needed basis. This
allows maximum power conservation and performance at the same time.
In general, Windows’ power management works in this way:
What ...
When ...
Power to the hard disk is turned off
When the hard disk has been idle for a set
period.
Power to the display is turned off
When the display has been idle for a set
period.
The computer enters the Standby mode.
The hard disk and display are turned off
and the entire system consumes less
power.
When the entire system has been idle for a

Hibernation
NOTE: When using Windows, make sure that the hibernation feature is enabled in the “When I
press the power button,” “When I press the sleep button,” and “When I close the lid” of the Power
Options Advanced Properties from the Control Panel.
Hibernation is a very useful feature. People frequently open many applications
when they use computers. It takes some time to get all these applications open
and running, and normally they all have to be closed before the computer can be
turned off.
When you use the hibernation feature, you do not have to close the applications.
The computer stores the state of your computer to a file on the hard disk and then
shuts down. The next time you turn on your computer, you return to exactly
where you left off.

Power-Saving Tips
Aside from enabling your computer’s power saving mode (see previous
section), you can do your part to maximize the battery’s operating time by
following these suggestions.
Do not disable Power Management. Choose a power plan that saves power
when using Windows. A power plan is a collection of hardware and system
settings that control how your computer manages power.
Decrease the LCD brightness to the lowest comfortable level.
Shorten the length of time before Windows turns off the display.
Many USB devices use power just by being connected. If you use a USB
mouse, you can save power by disconnecting the mouse and using the
touchpad. If you use a USB flash disk, unplug it when you are not using it.
Turn off the WLAN feature if you are not using it. (See Chapter 2.)
Turn off the computer when you are not using it.

Taking Care of the Computer
Location Guidelines
Use the computer where the temperature is between 10 °C (50 °F) and 40 °C
(104 °F).
Avoid placing the computer in a location subject to high humidity, extreme
temperatures, mechanical vibration, direct sunlight, or heavy dust.
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.
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.
Do not move the computer abruptly from a cold to a warm place. A
temperature difference of more than 10 °C (18 °F) will cause condensation
inside the unit, which may damage the storage media.
Do not place the computer on an unsteady surface.
General Guidelines
Do not place heavy objects on top of the computer when it is closed as this
may damage the display.
The screen surface is easily scratched. Do not use paper towels to clean the
display. Avoid touching it with your fingers, pen, or pencil.
To maximize the life of the backlight in the display, allow the backlight to
automatically turn off as a result of power management. Avoid using a
screen saver or other software that prevents the power management from
working.

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. Do not use alcohol or
detergent on the display.
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.
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.
Operate the computer with the battery pack installed even when using
external power. This ensures that the battery is fully charged.
If you will not be using the computer for a long period of time (more than
two weeks), remove the battery pack from the computer.
If you remove the battery pack, make sure that the battery terminals do not
contact any conductors such as metal objects or water. Otherwise, the
battery may become unusable as a result of a short circuit.
If you need to store the battery pack, store it in a cool, dry place. Never
allow the temperature to exceed 60 °C (140 °F).
Do not leave the battery pack in storage for more than 6 months without
recharging it.
