3 Getting Started
Power System
Using AC Power
The Notebook PC power is comprised
of two parts, the power adapter and the
battery power system� The power adapter
converts AC power from a wall outlet to
the DC power required by the Notebook
PC� Your Notebook PC comes with a
universal AC-DC adapter� That means
that you may connect the power cord to
any 100V-120V as well as 220V-240V
outlets without setting switches or using
power converters� Different countries may require that an adapter be used to connect
the provided US-standard AC power cord to a different standard� Most hotels will
provide universal outlets to support different power cords as well as voltages�
IMPORTANT! Damage may occur if you use a different adapter to power the Notebook
PC or use the Notebook PC’s adapter to power other electrical devices. If there is smoke,
burning scent, or extreme heat coming from the AC-DC adapter, seek servicing. Seek
servicing if you suspect a faulty AC-DC adapter. You may damage both your battery
pack(s) and the Notebook PC with a faulty AC-DC adapter.
NOTE: This Notebook PC may come with either a two or three-prong plug depending
on territory. If a three-prong plug is provided, you must use a grounded AC outlet or
use a properly grounded adapter to ensure safe operation of the Notebook PC DO NOT
remove the grounding prong from the power cable plug. If you use a power extension
cable, use the appropriate type, two-prong or three-prong, to mate with the AC adapter
power cable.
WARNING! THE POWER ADAPTER MAY BECOME WARM TO HOT WHEN IN USE. BE
SURE NOT TO COVER THE ADAPTER AND KEEP IT AWAY FROM YOUR BODY.
TIP: You can buy travel kits for the Notebook PC that includes power and modem
adapters for almost every country.
With the AC power cord connected to the AC-DC converter, connect the AC power cord
to an AC outlet (preferably with surge-protection) and then connect the DC plug to the
Notebook PC. Connecting the AC-DC adapter to the AC outlet rst allows you to test
the AC outlet’s power and the AC-DC converter itself for compatibility problems before
connecting the DC power to the Notebook PC� The power indicator on the adapter
(if available) will light if the power is within accepted ranges� If you use a power strip
with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in
to the power strip does not exceed the ampere rating of the power strip�

IMPORTANT! When in use plug the AC adapter cord into an AC outlet that is easily
accessible at all times and place the adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or
on the oor. DO NOT place heavy objects on the AC adapter or cover it with papers or
other items that will reduce cooling; also, DO NOT use the AC adapter inside a carrying
case.
19
Getting Started 3
IMPORTANT! Only use battery packs and power adapters supplied with this Notebook
PC or specically approved by the manufacturer or retailer for use with this model
or else damage may occur to the Notebook PC.
WARNING! For safety reasons, DO NOT throw the battery in re, DO NOT
short circuit the contacts, and DO NOT disassemble the battery. If there is
any abnormal operation or damage to the battery pack caused by impact,
turn OFF the Notebook PC and contact an authorized service center.
Battery Care
The Notebook PC’s battery pack, like all rechargeable batteries, has a limit on the
number times it can be recharged� The battery pack’s useful life will depend on your
environment temperature, humidity, and how your Notebook PC is used� It is ideal
that the battery be used in a temperature range between 5˚C and 35˚C (41˚F and
95˚F). You must also take into account that the Notebook PC’s internal temperature
is higher than the outside temperature� Any temperatures above or below this range
will shorten the life of the battery�
Using Battery Power
The Notebook PC is designed to work with a battery pack� A fully charged pack will
provide several hours of battery life, which can be further extended by using power
management features through the BIOS setup�
20
3 Getting Started
IMPORTANT! To protect the hard disk drive, always wait at least 5 seconds after
turning OFF your Notebook PC before turning it back ON.
NOTE: Before bootup, the display panel ashes when the power is turned ON. This
is part of the Notebook PC’s test routine and is not a problem with the display.
WARNING! DO NOT carry or cover a Notebook PC that is powered ON with any
materials that will reduce air circulation such as a carrying bag.
Powering ON the Notebook PC
The Notebook PC’s power-ON message appears on the screen when you turn it ON�
If necessary, you may adjust the brightness by using the hot keys� If you need to run
the BIOS Setup to set or modify the system conguration, press [F2] upon bootup
to enter the BIOS Setup. If you press [Tab] during the splash screen, standard boot
information such as the BIOS version can be seen. Press [ESC] and you will be
presented with a boot menu with selections to boot from your available drives�
Power Options
The power switch turns ON and OFF the Notebook PC or puts the Notebook PC into
sleep or hibernation modes� Actual behavior of the power switch can be customized
in Windows Control Panel “Power Options�”
For other options, such as “Switch User, Restart, Sleep, or Shut Down,” click the
arrowhead next to the lock icon�
Restarting or Rebooting
After making changes to your operating system, you may be prompted to restart the
system� Some installation processes will provide a dialog box to allow restart� To
restart the system manually, choose Restart�
IMPORTANT! Do not use emergency shutdown while data is being written; doing
so can result in loss or destruction of your data.
Emergency Shutdown
In case your operating system cannot properly turn OFF or restart, there is a manual
way to shutdown your Notebook PC:
Hold the power button over 4 seconds
21
Getting Started 3
NOTE: You will be warned when battery power is low. If you continue to ignore the
low battery warnings, the Notebook PC eventually enters suspend mode (Windows
default uses STR).
WARNING! Suspend-to-RAM (STR) does not last long when the battery power is
depleted. Suspend-to-Disk (STD) is not the same as power OFF. STD requires a
small amount of power and will fail if no power is available due to complete battery
depletion or no power supply (e.g. removing the power adapter).
Checking Battery Power
The battery system implements the Smart Battery standard under the Windows
environment, which allows the battery to accurately report the amount of charge
left in the battery� A fully-charged battery pack provides the Notebook PC a few
hours of working power. But the actual gure varies depending on how you use the
power saving features, your general work habits, the CPU, system memory size,
and the size of the display panel�
WARNING! Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge
over time. If not using a battery pack, it must continued to be charged every three
months to extend recovery capacity or else it may fail to charge in the future.
NOTE: The battery stops charging if the temperature is too high or the battery
voltage is too high.
Charging the Battery Pack
Before you use your Notebook PC on the road, you will have to charge the battery
pack� The battery pack begins to charge as soon as the Notebook PC is connected to
external power using the power adapter� Fully charge the battery pack before using
it for the rst time. A new battery pack must completely charge before the Notebook
PC is disconnected from external power� It takes a few hours to fully charge the
battery when the Notebook PC is turned OFF and may take twice the time when
the Notebook PC is turned ON� The battery status indicator on the Notebook PC
turns OFF when the battery pack is charged�

Sleep and Hibernate
Power management settings can be found
in the Windows > Control Panel > Power
Options. In System Settings, you can dene
“Sleep/Hibernate” or “Shut Down” for closing
the display panel or pressing the power button�
“Sleep” and “Hibernate” saves power when
your Notebook PC is not in use by turning OFF
certain components� When you resume your
work, your last status (such as a document scrolled down half way or email typed
half way) will reappear as if you never left� “Shut Down” will close all applications
and ask if you want to save your work if any are not saved�
Hibernate is the same as Suspend-to-Disk (STD) and stores your current data and
status on the hard disk drive� By doing this, RAM does not have to be periodically
refreshed and power consumption is greatly reduced but not completely eliminated
because certain wake-up components like LAN needs to remain powered�
“Hibernate” saves more power compared to “Sleep”� Click the Start button and the
arrowhead next to the lock icon to see this option� Recover by pressing the power
button� (NOTE: The power indicator will be OFF in this mode�)
Sleep is the same as Suspend-to-RAM (STR)� This function stores your current
data and status in RAM while many components are turned OFF� Because RAM is
volatile, it requires power to keep (refresh) the data� Click the Start button and the
arrowhead next to the lock icon to see this option� You can also use the keyboard
shortcut [Fn F1] to activate this mode. Recover by pressing any keyboard key except
[Fn]. (NOTE: The power indicator will blink in this mode.)
Power Management Modes
The Notebook PC has a number of automatic or adjustable power saving features
that you can use to maximize battery life and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)�
You can control some of these features through the Power menu in the BIOS Setup�
ACPI power management settings are made through the operating system� The
power management features are designed to save as much electricity as possible
by putting components into a low power consumption mode as often as possible
but also allow full operation on demand�
Thermal Power Control
There are three power control methods for controlling the Notebook PC’s thermal
state. These methods cannot be congured by the user and should be known in case
the Notebook PC should enter these states� The following temperatures represent
the chassis temperature (not CPU)�
• The fan turns ON for active cooling when temperature reaches the safe upper limit.
• The CPU decreases speed for passive cooling when the temperature exceeds the
safe upper limit�
• The system shuts down for critical cooling when temperature exceeds the maximum
safe upper limit�
