Instructions for Care and Operation
The computer is quite rugged, but it can be damaged. To
prevent this, follow these suggestions:
• Don’t drop it, or expose it to shock. If the computer falls, the
case and the components could be damaged.
• Keep it dry, and don’t overheat it. Keep the computer and
English
power supply away from any kind of heating element. This is an
electrical appliance. If water or any other liquid gets into it, the
computer could be badly damaged.
• Avoid interference. Keep the computer away from high capacity
transformers, electric motors, and other strong magnetic fields.
These can hinder proper performance and damage your data.
• Follow the proper working procedur e s for the computer. Shut
the computer down properly and don’t forget to save your work.
Remember to periodically save your data as data may be lost if
the battery is depleted.
• Note that in computer’s featuring a raised LCD electro-pl ated
logo, the logo is covered by a protective adhesive. Due to general
wear and tear, this adhesive may deter iorate over time and the
exposed logo may develop sharp edges. Be careful when handling
the computer in this case, and avoid touching the raised LCD
electro-plated logo. If any such wear and tear develops contact
your service center.
Power & Battery Safety
• Only use an AC/DC adapter approved for use with this computer.
• Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual.
• Your AC/DC adapter may be designed for international travel but
it still requires a steady, uninterrupted power supply. If you are
unsure of your local power specifications, consult your service
representative or local power company.
• The AC/DC adapter may have either a 2-prong or a 3-prong
grounded plug. The third prong is an important safety feature; do
not defeat its purpose. If you do not have access to a compatible
outlet, have a qualified electrician install one.
• When you want to unplug the power cord, be sure to disconnect it
by the plug head, not by its wire.
• Make sure the socket and any extension cord(s) you use can support the total current load of all the connected devices.
• Only use batteries designed for this computer. The wrong battery
type may explode, leak or damage the computer.
• Do not continue to use a battery that has been dropped, or that
appears damaged (e.g. bent or twisted) in any way. Even if the
computer continues to work with a damaged battery in place, it
may cause circuit damage, which may possibly result in fire.
• Recharge the batteries using the computer’s system. Incorrect
recharging may make the battery explode.
• Do not try to repair a battery pack. Refer any battery pack repair
or replacement to your service representative or qualified service
personnel.
• Keep children away from, and promptly dispose of a damaged
battery. Always dispose of batteries carefully. Batteri es ma y
explode or leak if exposed to fire, or improperly handled or discarded.
• Keep the battery away from metal appliances.
• Affix tape to the battery contacts bef ore disposing of the battery.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check
with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
• Do not touch the battery contacts with your hands or metal
objects.

Polymer Battery Precautions
Battery Disposal & Caution
The product that you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The battery is recyclable. At the end of its useful life, under various state and local laws, it may be illegal
to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream.
Check with your local solid waste officials for details in your
area for recycling options or proper disposal.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended
by the manufacturer. Discard used battery according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Note the following information which is specific to polymer batteries only, and where applicable, this overrides
the general battery precaution information.
• Polymer batteries may experience a slight expansion or swelling,
however this is part of the battery’s safety mechanism and is not a
cause for concern.
• Use proper handling procedures when using polymer batteries.
Do not use polymer batteries in high ambient temperature environments, and do not store unused batteries for extended periods.
Cleaning
• Use a soft clean cloth to clean the computer, but do not apply
cleaner directly to the computer.
• Do not use volatile (petroleum distillates) or abrasive cleaners on
any part of the computer.
• Before cleaning the computer remove the battery and make sure
the computer is disconnected from any external power supplies,
peripherals and cables (including telephone lines).
Servicing
Attempting to service the computer yourself may violate
your warranty and expose you and the computer to electric
shock. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel,
particularly under any of the following conditions:
• When the power cord or AC/DC adapter is damaged or frayed.
• If the computer has been exposed to any liquids.
• If the computer does not work normally when you follow the
operating instructions.
• If the computer has been dropped or damaged (do not touch the
poisonous liquid if the LCD panel breaks).
• If there is an unusual odor, heat or smoke coming from your com-
puter.

Moving the Computer
We strongly recommend using both hands to move the
computer. You can use one hand to grip the computer by
the stand, and the other to hold the top of the LCD
screen.
It is recommended that you carry the computer with the
LCD facing your body to avoid scratching the surface
against other objects. However take care not to scratch
the LCD with any personal items, belt fittings or jewelry
etc.(one hand gripping the stand and the other gripping
the top of the computer to avoid accidentally dropping it).
USB 3.0 Port
The USB 3.0 ports
are colored blue. USB 3.0 will
transfer data much faster than USB 2.0, and is backwards-compatible with USB 2.0.
Disc Emergency Eject
If you need to manually eject a disc (e.g. due to an unexpected power interruption) you may push the end of a
straightened paper clip into the emergency eject hole.

HDMI-In Port
This computer features an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) input port that allows you to display external
sources such as Blu-ray players, DVDs, set top boxes and games consoles etc. on your computer screen.
The computer itself does not need to be powered on to display video and audio from external sources. As long as
the computer is plugged-in to a power source through the AC/DC adapter (the LED indicator will be orange if the
computer is plugged-in but powered off), simply plug-in the HDMI cable from the external device to the computer’s
HDMI-In port and the computer will act as the display device. If the computer is powered by battery then press the pow-
English
er button on the computer to turn the computer on to use the HDMI-In port.
Mode Toggle
Press & Hold the mode toggle button to switch between the computer and HDMI input modes. When the “Input
Source HDMI” is displayed you can use any HDMI device plugged in to the computer’s HDMI-In port. A quick press
of the button will toggle the display on/off.
The following table indicates the functions when an HDMI cable is plugged in to the HDMI-In port.

Driver Installation & Power
When installing drivers make sure your computer is
powered by the AC/DC adapter connected to a working
power source. Some drivers draw a significant amount
of power during the installation procedure, and if the remaining battery capacity is not adequate this may cause
the system to shut down and cause system problems
(note that there is no safety issue involved here, and the
battery will be rechargeable within 1 minute).

tains the drivers and utilities necessary for the proper operation of the computer. Insert the disc and click Install
Drivers (button), or Option Drivers (button) to access
the Optional driver menu. Install the drivers in the order
indicated in Table 4. Click to select the drivers you wish
