About this Concise User
Instructions for Care and Op-
Guide
This quick guide is a brief introduction to getting your
system started. This is a supplement, and not a substitute
for the expanded English language User’s Manual in
Adobe Acrobat format on the Device Drivers & Utilities
+ User’s Manual disc supplied with your computer. This
English
disc also contains the drivers and utilities necessary for
the proper operation of the computer.
Some or all of the computer’s features may already have
been setup. If they aren’t, or you are planning to re-configure (or re-install) portions of the system, refer to the
expanded User’s Manual. The Device Drivers & Utilities
+ User’s Manual disc does not contain an operating sys-
tem.
Regulatory Information
Regulatory notices and information are contained in the
expanded User’s Manual on the Device Drivers & Utili-
ties + User’s Manual disc.
eration
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
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 capac-
ity transformers, electric motors, and other strong magnetic
fields. These can hinder proper performance and damage your
data.
• Follow the proper working procedures for the computer.
Shut the computer down properly and don’t for get to save your
work. Remember to periodically save your data as data may be
lost.
2
Servicing
Do not attempt to service the computer yourself. Doing
so may violate your warranty and expose you and the
computer to electric shock. Refer all servicing to authorized service personnel. Unplug the computer from the
power supply. Then refer servicing to qualified service
personnel under any of the following conditions:
• When the power cord 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
computer.
Power Safety
The computer has specific power requirements:
• Only use an AC/DC adapter approved for use with this computer.
• 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.
• Before cleaning the computer, make sure it is disconnect ed from
any external power supplies.
English
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.

HDMI-In Port
Note that this is an HDM I Input port and cannot be used
as an HDMI Output port to
display the computer’s
screen on external displays.
HDMI-In Port
Note that the HDMI-In
Port supports video and
audio signals from attached HDMI devices.
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.
English
Mode Toggle
Press 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.
