THINGS YOU MUST REMEMBER BEFORE WORKING ON YOUR
COMPUTER
ET YOUR COMPUTER ACCLIMATE ITSELF
L
Your computer can easily stand temperature extremes but it doesn’t like rapid changes in temperature, like going from the cold outdoors to a warm office. Rapid changes in temperature can cause water droplets to condense inside your case, threatening to damage the electronic parts inside.
After receiving your computer when it’s hot or cold outside, try not to power up the computer immediately, let the computer adjust to the room temperature gradually at least for three to four hours.
If your system arrives in cold weather, do not apply power to the computer or monitor until they have been allowed to come to room temperature.
HEAT, COLD, HUMIDITY, AND GLARE
Find a suitable place for your computer that’s not too hot, too cold, too dark, or too bright. Glare can make it hard to read the screen.
` Try to avoid the computer components from being destroyed if
it is over heated, so try to allow plenty of room for air to circulate around the case.
` Do not block the ventilation opening. ` Do not place your computer in direct sunlight.
SUITABLE PLACE TO WORK
Your computer will run well wherever you’re comfortable but extremes of temperature and humidity can be challenging to your system’s parts. There are some things you can tolerate that the computer can’t – things like static electricity, dust, water, steam and oil. In case you decide to pull over for roadside computing, try to choose a clean, comfortable work area for your system.
A lithium-ion battery pack will be available when you are traveling. If you are running your system for the first time on battery power, remove the battery from the package, install it into the system and recharge the battery to fully prepare for service.

Getting Started
CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE
C
ONNECTING THE AC ADAPTER
A universal AC adapter is provided to supply your computer with power and also charge the computer’s battery pack. The adapter’s AC input voltage can range anywhere from 100 to 240 volts, covering the standard voltages available in almost every country. The power cord for the AC adapter requires a three-hole grounded AC outlet. To connect the computer to an external power source:
Do not use inferior extension cords as this may result in damage to your computer. The computer comes w ith its own AC adapter. Do not use a different adapter to power the computer and other electrical devices.
21
Whenever possible, keep the AC adapter plugged into the computer and an electrical outlet to recharge the battery.
Never turn off or reset your comptuer while the hard disk is in use; doing so can result in loss or destruction of your data. Always wait at least 5 seconds after turning off your computer before turning it back on; turning the power on and off in rapid succession can damage the computer’s electrical circu itry.
TURNING ON YOUR COMPUTER
Turn on your computer by pressing the power button. Hold the button down for a second or two and release. The Power-On Self Test (POST) runs automatically.
After the POST is completed, the computer reads the operating system from the hard disk drive into computer memory (this is commonly referred to as “booting” a computer). If your OS (Operating System such as Windows XP…. etc) is installed, it should start automatically.
To turn the computer off, save your work and close all open applications, click on Start, then Shu
down the computer and click "Y
t Down and select Shut
es" or press the power button for
4-6 seconds.
OPERATING ON BATTERY POWER
Your computer comes with a rechargeable battery pack that lets you operate the computer without an external power source. When the battery pack is fully charged, you can operate the computer under the following conditions:
` The battery pack initially has a full charge. ` No peripheral devices are installed.
Only use batteries that are approved by an authorized dealer. All batteries are not the same and therefore should not be treated as such. Using the wrong battery could cause serious damage to your computer and yourself through toxic emissions.
Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack
The battery pack should already be inserted in your computer when you unpack it. If not inserted, follow these directions:
22
To remove the battery pack:
23
Charging the Battery Pack
The installed battery pack charges automatically any time the computer is connected to the AC adapter and an external power source. It is a good idea to occasionally discharge the battery pack fully to preserve its operating performance.
24
Using the Computer
THE STICK POINTER
The Stick Pointer is a round electronic panel located at the right of the LCD panel. You can use the buttons at the left that act as left and right buttons of an ordinary mouse.
Stick Pointer Precautions
The Stick Pointer is a pressure sensitive device. Please take note of the following precautions.
` Make sure the Stick Pointer does not come into contact with
dirt, liquids or grease.
` Do not touch the Stick Pointer if your fingers are dirty. ` Do not rest heavy objects on the Stick Pointer or the Stick
Pointer buttons.
You can use the Stick Pointer with Microsoft Windows as well as non-Windows applications.
POWER SAVING MODES
This section contains information on the computer’s power system, including the AC Adapter, the battery system, recharging the battery, and tips for conserving battery power.
25
The power system is comprised of two parts, the AC Adapter and the battery system. The AC Adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the computer.
THE BATTERY POWER SYSTEM
Before using the computer on battery power for the first time, check the battery status icon on the Windows Toolbar to make sure the battery is fully charged.
See Battery Status later in this section for a description and explanation of the Windows Battery icon. Charging the battery takes about 3 hours to charge when the system is in off state. If possible, always charge the battery completely.
If you use the battery so frequently that it exceed more than 20 times by fully discharging/charging in a single month alone, we recommend you to perform the “Battery Calibration” process every 3 months to maintain the battery life. Please refer to the topic on “Battery Calibration” describing how to calibrate your system battery discussed on the latter part of this chapter. If you discover the battery life is getting shorter, please perform the “Battery Calibration” process immediately.
REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK
To remove the battery pack from its compartment, please refer to Chapter 3, Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack.
Preparing the Battery Pack for Use
Before using the battery pack for the first time, the Smart Battery IC within the battery pack should be calibrated in order to get accurate reporting of remaining battery life status.
To calibrate the battery pack follows the instructions below:
1. Insert the battery into the battery compartment and turn on the
computer. If the battery is completely without power go to the next step. Otherwise, let the battery run down until the battery low-low warning beeps are heard. The system will automatically enter Suspend mode.
2. Turn the computer off. Connect the AC adapter and let the
battery fully recharge. When the battery charge indicator turns off, the battery is fully charged.
26
3. Turn On the computer, let the battery run down until the
battery is in low-low state and you hear a warning beeps. The system will automatically enter the Suspend mode. You can now connect the AC adapter.
4. The battery pack is now calibrated properly. In general, using the battery until the low-low battery-warning
indicator appears and fully recharges the battery each time (full discharge/charge cycle) will ensure the accurate reporting of the battery gauge status.
Automatic Battery Pack Charging Function
You can automatically charge the battery pack by using the AC Adapter. The charge time is about three hours when the computer power is turned off. The following table summarizes the charging modes:
Charge Mode Charge Time
Fast 3 hours with the system off or in Suspend mode.
The temperature must be 25°C or below room temperature.
Pre-Charge A pre-charge is supplied to the Li-Ion battery pack.
Battery Status
Windows XP has an applet in the Control Panel that will display an icon in the Windows taskbar indicating when the computer is running on battery power or is attached to the AC adapter.
This applet also displays a meter that indicates how much charge is remaining in the battery.
Battery Low Warning
When the pack initially reaches the “Battery Low” state approximately 10 ~ 15 minutes of the usable battery life is left.
You will hear an audible beep signal every 5 seconds alerting you to the “Battery Low” status. When the battery power reaches the “Battery Low Low” status the beeping sound will accelerate.
Your battery now has 1 ~ 2 minutes of battery charge remaining. You must save your data or connect AC power immediately; otherwise, you may lose your data.
Sound Meaning
Continuous beeping every 5 seconds
Battery Low: Indicates that there is 7 to 10 minutes charge remaining.
27
Beeping accelerates
Battery Low Low: Indicates that there is 1 to 2 minutes of battery charge remaining. Save your work and turn off the computer, or connect the AC adapter.
When there is only one minute of battery charge remaining, the computer will suspend to the HDD and power off. You should connect AC power and resume to save your work.
Small Battery for the Real Time Clock
There is a small built-in battery pack that supplies power to the system in order to maintain certain system information while the power is off. If the computer is left without a power source for long period of time, this battery will be exhausted and system information will be lost.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never remove the battery pack while the power is on as this may result in data loss when the system loses power.
BATTERY CALIBRATION
The purpose for this process is to provide a longer battery life for your system battery pack.
1. Turn on the computer, when the text appears, press [Del] or
the [Delete] key until the system enters the BIOS Setup screen, you may now make the necessary changes.
2. Press the Î arrow key until it reaches the “Exit” menu screen.
Again press the Ð arrow key and select the “Battery Calibration” item. Press the [Enter] key and disconnect the AC adapter then press the [Y] key until you hear continuous battery low-low warning beeping sounds. The system will be fully discharge and shutdown completely.
3. Connect the AC adapter and let the battery fully recharge. The
“Battery Charge LED” of the computer will light indicating it is in charging status.
4. When the battery charge LED turns off will indicate the system
is fully charged.
5. Repeat step 1 to 4 once again.
6. The battery is now fully calibrated.

Troubleshooting
This chapter describes locating and solving problems that you may encounter while using your computer.
CHECKING CABLES AN D CONNECTIONS
Start by performing a careful visual inspection of the exterior of the computer. If no LEDs are illuminated, make sure that your computer and its peripherals are getting power and communicating with each other properly.
To check the power cables, and connections:
1. If you have been using battery power, connect the computer to
an external power source and make sure that the battery has a charge.
2. If you are using the computer with the AC adapter, check the
power outlet, the power cord, and any power switches that may affect your computer.
3. Check the wall outlet or power strip with an item that you know
is functioning properly. A lamp or radio is a convenient item for checking the power. You may also need to check the fuses and breakers in your electric box.
4. If the outlet is controlled by a wall switch, make sure that the
switch is on.
5. If the outlet is controlled by a dimmer switch, use a different
outlet.
6. If your computer is plugged into a power strip with an On/Off
switch, make sure the switch is on.
7. With the computer’s power switched off, check all cable
connections. If the computer is connected to any peripheral devices, look for loose or disconnected cables.
67
If the computer is too close to a wall, a cable connection may be loose or the cables may be crimped.
Do not substitute cables for different devices (other than the manufacturer recommended cables) even if they look exactly alike. The wiring inside the cable may be different.
8. When you are certain that you have power available and all
connections are good, turn the computer on again. If the computer still does not start, you may have a hardware problem.
GENERAL PROBLEMS
A few common hardware problems and suggested solutions are presented in the table below:
SYSTEM NOT RESUMING OPERATION
If the system will not resume operation after system operation has been suspended, check the following possible causes:
The battery may either be defective, or discharge to a critically low level. To correct this problem, connect an external power supply such as AC adapter.
