Additional safety notes for devices with radio components

Radiocomponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes

If a radio component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS, LTE) is incorporated into your notebook,
you must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:

• Switch off the radio components when you are in an aircra ft or driving in a car.

• Switch off the radio components when y ou are in a hospital, an operating room or near a medical
electronics system. The transmitted radio waves can impair the operation of medical devices.

• Switch off the radio components when you let the device get near flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petrol station, paintshops), as the
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a fire.

For information on how to switch radio components on and off, see chapter

Switching the wirele ss components on and off", Pa ge 38.

Energy saving

NotesEnergyEnergysaving

Switch the notebook off when it is not in use. Switch off external, connected device s if you
are not using them. If you use the energy saving functions, the noteboo k uses less energy.
You will then be able to work for longer before having to recharge the battery.

Energy efficiency is increased and the environmental impact is reduced.
You s ave money while protecting the environme nt.

Travelling w ith your notebook

MobileoperationNotesTran sportationNotebook

Please observe the points listed below when travelling with your notebook.

Before you travel

► Back up important data stored on your hard disk.

NotebookTravel,notebook

► Switch off the radio component for data security reasons. With data traffic via a wireless

connection, it is also possible for unauthorised third parties to receive data.

Information on activating data encryption is provided in the documentation
for your radio component.

► If you wish to use your notebook during a flight, first check with the flight

attendants if it is OK to do so.

When travelling in other countries

► If you are travelling abroad, check that the mains adapter can be operated with the

local mains voltage. If this is not the case, obtain the appropriate mains adapter for
your notebook. Do not use any other voltage converter!

► Check whether the local mains voltage and the power cable are compatible. If this is

not the case, buy a power cable that matches the local conditions.

► Enquire with the corresponding govern m ent office of the country you will be

travelling in as to whether you may operate the radio component integrated in
your notebook there (see also "

CE marking", Page 66).

Notebook: t ranspo rting

Protect the notebook from severe shocks and extreme temperatures
(e.g. direct sunlight in a car).

► If your device has an optical drive, remove all data media (e.g. CD , DVD) from the drives.

TransportationNotebook

► Switch the notebook off.
► Unplug the mains adapter and all external devices from the power socket.
► Disconnect the mains adapter cable and the data cables for all external devices.
► Close the LCD screen.
► To protect against damaging jolts and bumps, use a notebook carrying

case to transport your notebook.

14 Fujitsu

Cleaning the notebook

Do not clean any interior parts yourself; leave this job to a service technician.

Only use cleaning products designed for computers. Normal household
cleaners and polishes can damage the markings on the keyboard and the
device, the paintwork or the notebook itself.

Ensure that no liquid enters the notebook.

The LCD screen very sensitive to scratches. Only clean the display
surface with a very soft, slightly damp cloth.

Important notes

► In order to prevent accidentially switching the device on, remove the power cable from the mains

adaptor and remove the battery (see "
The surface can be cleaned with a dry cloth. If particularly dirty, use a cloth which has

Select a suitable location for the device before setting it up. F ollow
the instructions below when doing so:

• Never place the device or the mains adapter on a heat-sensitive surface.
The surface could be damaged as a result.

• Never place the device on a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered furniture,
bed). This can block the air vents and cause overheating and damage.

• The underside of the device heats up during normal operation. Prolonged contact
with the skin may become unpleasant or even result in burns.

• Place the device on a stable, flat, non-slippery surface. Please note that the
rubber feet of the device may mark certain types of delicate surfaces.

• Keep other objects at least 100 mm / 3.97" away from the device and
its mains adapt er to ensure adequate ventilation.

• Never cover the ventilation slots of the device.

• Do not expose the device to extreme environmental conditions. Protect
the device from dust, humidity, and heat.

LCD screen

LCDscreenNotes

High-quality LCD screens (TFT) are installed in Fujitsu noteboo ks. For technical reasons,
these screens are manufactured for a particular resolution. An optimum and sharp image can
only be ensured with the resolution intended for th e particular screen. A screen resolution
which differs from the specification can result in an unclear image.

The resolution of your notebook’s screen is set to the optimum at the factory.

With the present standards of production technology, absolutely flawless screen images
cannot be guaranteed. There may be a few constantly light or dark pixels (picture
elements) on the screen. The maximum permitted number of such faulty pixels is
specified in the international standard ISO 9241-307 (Class II).

Example:

A monitor with HD resolution 1366 x 768 has 1366 x 768 = 1049088 pixels. Each pixel consists of
three subpixels (red, green and blue), making a total of about 3 million subpixels. According to ISO
9241-307 (class II), a maximum of 2 light and 2 dark pixels and in addition 5 light or 10 dark subpixels
or an equivalent mix (1 light subpixel co unts as 2 dark subpixels) are allowed to be defective.

Webcam

Depending on the software used, you can use your Webcam to take pictures,

• The picture quality depends on the lighting conditions and the software being used.

• You can only operate the webcam with a particular application (e.g. an Internet telephony
program or a video conferencing program which supports a webcam).

• When using the webcam the notebook support must not wobble.

• The webcam automatically adjusts itself to the current light level. For this reason
the LCD screen may flicker while the light level is adjusted.

When not plugged into a ma ins socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You
can increase the life of the battery by caring for the battery properly. The average
battery life is around 500 charge/discharge cycles.

You can extend the battery life by taking advantage of the available energy saving functions.

Charging, caring for and maintaining the battery

BatteryBattery

The notebook battery can only be charged when the ambient temperature is
between 5°C / 41°F and max. 35°C / 95°F.

You can charge the battery by connecting the notebook to the mains adapter

Mains adapter connecting", Page 17).

(see "

Please note that the battery will not be charged if the battery status is between
90% and 100% . If the battery status is less than 90% and the mains adapter is
connected, the battery will be charged to 100%.

If the battery status is low, you will hear a warning alarm. If you do not connect
the mains adapter within approximately five minutes of the warning alarm described
above, your notebook will switch off automatically.

Store battery packs in a dry environment at a temperature between 0°C / 32°F and 30°C / 86°F. T he
lower the temperature at which the batteries are stored, the lowe r the rate of self-discharge.

If you will be storing batteries for a longer period (longer than two months),
the battery charge level should be approx. 30 %. To prevent exhaustive
discharge which would permanently damage the battery, check the level
of charge of the battery at regular intervals.

To be able to make use of the optimal charging capacity of the batteries, the battery
should be completely discharged and then fully recharged.

If you do not use the batteries for long periods, remove them from the
notebook. Never store the batteries in the device.

Installing a hard disk

If you are installing more than one component at the same time, keep the screws for
the individual components separately from each other and make sure that you use the
correct screws. If you install the wrong screws, components may be damaged.

To prevent damaging the connecting cable and contacts, do not pull sharply
on the cable and always hold the cable at the plug.

Take care not to trap the connecting cable underneath the hard disk.
