Getting Started Numeric Keypad The embedded numeric keypad consists of ten keys that make number intensive input more convenient. Pressto enable or disable the numeric keypad. Touchpad The touchpad is a pressure sensitive pointing device that provides all the features of a two-button mouse. Its primary function is to move the cursor around the screen. The instructions listed below describe how to use the touchpad. 1. First, place your fingers on the keyboard in the normal typing position. The touchpad is easily accessible by moving either your left or right thumb off the space bar and on to the touchpad. 2. Gently move your thumb across the pressure-sensitive touchpad in the direction you want the cursor to move. The pad detects the change in pressure and moves the cursor in the corresponding direction. 3. The touchpad offers another method of making selections in a software program. It is called double-tapping. This function corresponds to double-clicking with a mouse. Once the cursor has been moved to the object you want to select, lightly double-tap the pressure sensitive © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc. Getting Started touchpad. This double-tapping on the touchpad will select the desired item and prompt the software to perform the related operation. 4. The buttons located directly below the touchpad are the same in function as those on a twobuttoned mouse. Clicking these buttons makes selections, drags objects, or performs a variety of other functions depending on the software. To select an object, first move the pointer over the object you want to select, and then press the left button one time. The functions of these buttons are software specific. 5. Double-clicking is a common technique for selecting objects or launching programs from icons. Once you have moved the pointer over the object you wish to select, rapidly press the left button two times. This action is commonly referred to as “double-clicking” an object. Dragging There are two ways to drag: • Move the pointer to the desired location then press down the left button. While still holding down the left button, move the pointer to the desired location. Release the button. • Move the pointer to the desired location. Tap the touchpad twice quickly as if you were doubleclicking, however do not remove your finger after the second tap. Move the cursor to the desired location. Lift your finger to finish dragging. Adjust the touchpad settings by selecting Settings/Control Panel/Mouse/Buttons. These settings allow you to change the orientation of the touchpad from right-handed to left-handed, and fine tune the pointer movement and timing of clicks. Touchpad Precautions The Touchpad is a pressure-sensitive device. If not properly cared for, it can be easily damaged. Please take note of the following precautions. • Make sure the touchpad does not come into contact with dirt, liquids or grease. • Do not touch the touchpad if your fingers are dirty. • Do not rest heavy objects on the touchpad or the touchpad buttons. Scrolling Buttons If you are scrolling through a document, you may find that using the scrolling button is more restful to your hand than holding down a mouse button. The scrolling button is located between the touchpad buttons. Push the top of the button to scroll up in a document or Web page; press the bottom of the button to scroll down in a document or Web page. © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc.

Chapter 4 Power Management Power Management — Power Management Power Management Battery Calibration The first time you use a battery, you should calibrate it. The calibration process empties and charges the battery one time. This allows the Windows battery gauge to accurately monitor battery status. To calibrate a battery, follow these steps: 1. Plug in the AC adapter. 2. Restart the computer and when the startup screen appears, press Del key to enter the BIOS Setup Utility. 3. In the BIOS Setup Utility, select Power Management Setup , choose Battery Auto Calibration, then press . Please make sure that AC adapter & Battery are present? Would you to do battery auto-learning? Yes. No. (System Reboot) 4. Press at the above Battery Auto Calibration dialog to begin the battery calibration. Please press [Space Bar] to select option, and [Enter] to continue. Battery Calibration will take from 8 to 10 hours, depending on how much power the battery may already contain. Note: For optimum performance, we recommend calibrating the battery again every three months. Each time you charge and discharge a battery, it loses a tiny part of its storage capacity, so that, over time, it will store less than its potential charge. Similarly, if you do not use the battery for a few days, it will slowly self-discharge, and when it is recharged, it will hold less than 100% of the potential charge. © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc. Power Management — Power Management Monitoring Battery Power There are two ways to monitor how much power the battery has left. 1. Click start/Settings/Control Panel/Power Options; then click Power Meter. 2. Moving the cursor to the battery icon on the taskbar is the simplest way to check on battery power status. If you do not see the battery icon, enable it in Start/Settings/Control Panel/Power Options. Choose the Advanced tab and click “Always show icon on the taskbar.” Low Battery Alarms How your computer responds to a low battery condition is set under Start/Settings/Control Panel/Power Options/Alarms. Two different power alarms can be enabled or disabled: the Low Battery Alarm, and the Critical Battery Alarm. Use the slidebar to set the power level at which the alarms are activated. Click on the Alarm Action button to choose whether the alarm sounds, displays a message, or both. Warning: When battery power is low, the battery indicator will flash red, and the alarm will beep or display a warning on your screen. Take immediate action, such as saving files or connecting to the AC adapter, or data may be lost. When the computer alerts you that the battery is low, immediately do one of the following: © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc. Power Management — Power Saving Modes • Connect the AC power adapter • Save your work, and suspend to disk + • Save your work, then select Shut Down from the Start menu • Turn off or suspend the computer and replace the discharged battery with a charged battery (See Changing the Battery below). Do not restart the computer until you have connected to an AC adapter, or replaced the discharged battery with a charged battery. Battery Charging When you use the AC adapter to connect your Notebook to a power outlet, the internal battery will automatically begin to recharge. While the battery is charging, the Battery Charge icon on the Indicator panel will be active. When the battery is fully charged, the Battery Charge icon will turn off. If your computer is turned off, a fully discharged battery will take about 3 hours to recharge. If your computer is turned on and is not in suspend mode, it twill take about 4 hours to recharge the battery. Refer to the following table: Charging Discharging System On 4 hours 3.5 hours System Off (suspend to RAM) 3 hours — Note: A fully charged Li-Ion battery can run the Notebook for up to 3.5 hours. Power Saving Modes Adjust the default power management settings in the Power Options/ Advanced dialog box in the Control panel. The Power Options Properties dialog box allows you to set different actions to take when the computer is left idle for a certain amount of time. © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc. Power Management — Power Saving Modes Suspend Mode There are several possible settings for suspend mode, which can be selected in the Power Management dialog box: You may have the notebook standby, hibernate, or you can power off the computer altogether. Standby All devices are powered up and in suspend mode except for the CPU clock. Hibernate Suspend to Disk is similar to turning off the computer, except that the current state of the computer is copied to the hard disk as a special file. When the computer returns from suspend mode, the desktop appears with the same files and programs open as when the computer was suspended. Suspend to Disk is very useful when you don't want to take the time to shut down all open programs one by one to shut off the computer, only to have to open the same programs and files the next time you use the computer. This mode is also called hibernation mode. Suspend-to-disk Partition/Suspend-to-disk File In order to Suspend to Disk, you must have a special suspend-to-disk partition/file on your hard disk drive. This partition is pre-installed on your computer. The pre-installed partition is large enough to store all system memory. Power Off System is shutdown. Initiating Suspend Mode There are four ways to initiate suspend mode. The settings can be adjusted in the Power Management dialog box: • The computer will automatically enter suspend mode when not used for a set period of time. • Selecting the Stand by button in the Shut Down Windows dialog box. • Closing the screen cover (assuming no external monitor has been connected). • Pressing the power button (if enabled in power settings). © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc. Power Management — Power Saving Tips • Pressing the suspend function key + . Using the BIOS Utility for Power Management With Windows running in ACPI mode, power can be controlled through the Power Management dialog box only. With operating systems that use ACPI power management, BIOS power settings have no effect. Power Button Settings The function of the power button can be set to Shutdown or Standby in the Power Management Properties dialog box in the Windows Control Panel. However, holding the power button down for more than four seconds will force a power off while operating under any situation, resulting in the loss of any unsaved information. Power Saving Tips • Avoid operating the fax/modem, or audio and video applications when using battery power. Operating a fax modem, video, or audio equipment increases the computer's power requirements. • Decreasing monitor brightness can also save power. Decrease brightness by pushing + . Increase it by pushing + . © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc. Power Management — When to Replace the Battery When to Replace the Battery Over time, the battery's capacity gradually decreases. We recommend that you replace your battery when you notice that it begins to store significantly less charge. Changing the Battery Change the main battery pack as follows: 1. Turn off the computer. 2. Close the screen cover and turn the computer over. 3. Slide the side battery latch (1) away from the battery. Continue to hold it until the battery is removed. 4. Push in the latch on the battery (2) while lifting the battery out of the compartment. Remove the battery. 5. Make sure the replacement battery is properly orientated. Slide back the side battery latch (1) then insert the battery into the battery compartment. Check that the latch locks back into position. Heat Considerations The computer's processor has been specially designed to consume little power, and generates very little heat. However, working in a hot environment, or working for long periods may raise the temperature. Your computer takes the following steps to lower temperature: 1. The cooling fan will automatically turn on. You may feel air coming from a vent at the left side when this happens. 2. If the temperature continues to rise, processor activity will be reduced. You may notice a slight loss of performance when this happens. © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc.

Access Power Management by clicking on Start/Settings/Control Panel/Power Management. Adjust the display time-out by selecting a time next to the Turn off monitor option. You may also select different time-out values for adapter and battery power states. Q: What kind of external microphone can I use with my notebook computer? A: You will need to use a self-amplifying microphone. Q: There is feedback noise coming from my speakers. What can I do? A: Double click on the Speaker icon on the task bar. Then, under Microphone Balance, check the Mute box. Q: Because of a software problem, I was unable to shut down power normally. I pressed the power button to force a power off, but it didn't work. How can I force a power off? A: Make sure you press the power button for at least 5 seconds. Normally, this will force a power off. If this does not work, you can shut down the computer by inserting a needle into the reset button pinhole. (The reset button is located on the computer bottom side.) Q: Why can’t I charge the battery of my portable computer after it was out of use for some time? A: After portable computers have not been used for a long time (more than one month), the batteries will go into the low voltage protection mode due to data back-ups and natural electrical discharge. At that point, restoring normal voltage will require slow charging over a period of several hours. Calibration can be performed after the battery has returned to a normal condition. Q: My computer alerts “CMOS Battery Low”, what can I do? A: If you keep your computer in no power situation (unplug the computer from the power outlet and remove battery at the same) over 45 days, your data in CMOS will be lost. © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc.
