LCD screen
LCDscreenNotes
High-quality TFT displays are installed in notebooks from Fujitsu Technology Solutions GmbH. For
technical reasons, TFT monitors are manufactured for a specific resolution. An optimal, clear
picture can only be ensured with the correct resolution intended for the relevant TFT monitor. A
monitor resolution which differs from the specification can result in an unclear picture.
The screen resolution of the LCD monitor of your notebook is optimally set at the factory.
The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen
display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels (picture elements) may be presen t. The maximum
permitted number of pixels faults is stipulated in the international standard ISO 9241-3 (Class II).
Example:
A monitor w ith a resolution of 1280 x 800 has 1280 x 800 = 1024000 pixels. Each pixel consists of
three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 3 million subpixels in total. According to
ISO 9241-3 (class II), a maxim um of 2 light and 2 dark pixels and an additional 5 light or 10 dark
subpixels or a corresponding mix may be defective (1 light subpixel counts as 2 dark subpixels).

This results in optimum readability and longer battery life at the same time.
In delivery status, the ambient light sensor on your device is switched off. To switch the ambient
light sensor on, select Start - Control P anel - Positioning and other sensors - Ambient light sensor.

You can use the pen on your notebook as an electronic writing implement to select
items and to navigate through menu options and programs. Programs that support
handwriting recognition also allow you to write characters directly on the screen with
the pen. You can also use the pen as a drawing tool.
The notebook pen is retained securely in the pen slot. This ensures that the pen cannot be
lost, regardless of whether you use the notebook a s a Tablet PC or as a notebook, or transport
it while travelling. Always replace the pen in its slot when you are not using it.
The notebook is supplied with a pen cord which you can attach to the eyelets
on the pen and on the notebook.
Only use the pen provided with your notebook. Do not use substitute pen tips
that were not specially designed for your notebook. Replace the stylus tip if it
is w orn. The warranty does not cover a scratched screen.

Keep th e battery pack between 0°C and +30°C. The lower the temperature at which
the batteries are stored, the lower 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
