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
power supply away from any kind of heating element. This is an
electrical appliance. If water or any other liquid gets into it, the
English
computer could be badly damaged.
• Avoid interfer ence. 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 procedures 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.
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 fo llowing 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 panel breaks).
• If there is an unusual odor, heat or smoke coming from your computer.
Safety Information
• Only use an AC/DC adapter approved for use with this computer.
• Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check
with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.
• 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.
• Make sure that your computer is completely powered off before
putting it into a travel bag (or any such container).
• Before cleaning the computer, make sure it is disconnected from
any external power supplies, peripherals and cables.
• 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.
• Do not try to repair a battery pack. Refer any battery pack repair
or replacement to your service representative or qualified service
personnel.
• Note that in computer’s featuring a raised electro-plated logo, the
logo is covered by a protective adhesive. Due to general wear and
tear, this adhesive may deteriorate over time and the exposed logo
may develop sharp edges. Be careful when handling the computer
in this case, and avoid touching the raised electro-plated logo.
Avoid placing any other items in the carrying bag which may rub
against the top of the computer during transport. If any such wear
and tear develops contact your service center.

Sleep (Modern Standby)
This system supports Sleep mode as Modern Standby.
In this case the system will continue to download mail,
Windows updates, calendar updates and even VoIP calls
via a Windows Store app, even when the system is in
Sleep (Modern Standby) mode, in much the same way as
a smartphone.
In Sleep (Modern Standby) all of your work, settings and
preferences are saved to memory before the system sleeps.
When you are not using your computer for a certain length
of time, which you specify in the operating system, it will
enter Sleep (Modern Standby) to save power.
The PC wakes from Sleep (Modern Standby) within
seconds and will return you to where you last left off
(what was on your desktop) without reopening the application(s) and file(s) you last used.

Driver Installation
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).

Driver Installation
General Guidelines

Make sure any modules
(e.g. WLAN or Bluetooth)
are ON before installing
the appropriate driver.

Latest Updates
After installing all the drivers make sure you enable Check for updates (Settings > Update & Security > Check for
updates) and go to the Microsoft Store and click Downloads and updates > Get updates to update all Apps etc.
