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 in tended for the relevant TF T monitor. A
monitor resolution which differs from the specification can result in an unclear picture.

The screen resolution of the LCD mon itor of your notebook is optimally set at the factory.

The standard of production techniques tod ay cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen
display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels (picture elements) may be present. The maximum
permitted number of pixels faults is stipulated in the i nterna tional standard ISO 9241-3 (Class II).

Example:

A monito r with 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 maximum 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 coun ts as 2 dark subpixels).

Pixel

A pixel consists

of 3 subpixels, normally red, green and

blue. A pixel is t

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 ba ttery

Only qualified technicians should repair your notebook. Unauthorised
opening or incorrect repair may greatly endanger the user (electric shock,
fire risk) and will invalidate your warranty.

Components

Servicing

After consulting the Hotline/Service Desk, you may remove and install the
components described in this chapter yourself.

If you remove and install components without consulting the Hotline/Service
Desk, then the warranty of your notebook will be voided.

Notes on installing and removing boards
and components

• Switch the notebook off and pull the power plug out of the m a ins socket.

• Always remove the battery.

• Take care when you use the locking mechanisms o n the battery and any other component.

• Never use sharp objects such as screwdrivers, scissors o r knives as leverage to remove covers.

NotesBoardESD

Boards with electrostatic sensitive d evices (ESD) are marked with the label
shown.

When handling boards fitted with ESDs, you must always observe the following
points:

• You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a grounded
object) before working.

• The equip ment and tools you use must be free of static charges.

• Remove the power plug from the mains supply before inserting or removing
boards containing ESDs.

• Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.

• Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.

on

If you are asked by the Ho tline/Service Desk to remove and install the memory
expansion yourself, proceed as follows:

Please observe the safety information in chapter "Important notes", Page 13.

When installing/removing memory m odules, the battery must be removed from
the notebook and the notebook must not be connected to the power supply,
see "

Preparing to remove components", Page 69.

Only use memory expansion modules that have been approved for your
notebook (see "

Technical data", Page 84).

Never use force when installing or removing a memory extension.

Make sure that foreign objects do not fall into the memory extension compartment.

You must open the service compartment to remove or install a memo ry module. On some devices,
opening the comp artment may expose other com ponents. These components should be removed
and replaced only by autho rised specialists. Therefore, b e sure to observe the following:

Individual components can become very hot during operation. Therefore, we
recommend that you wait one hour after switching off the notebook before removing
or installing memory modules. Otherwise, there is a risk of suffering burns!

As some components are exposed that are sensitive to static electricity, please take
note of chapter "

Notes on installing and removing boards and components", Page 68.

and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Notice to Users of the US Telephone Network

Your notebook may be supplied with an interna l modem which complies with Part 68 of the
FCC rules. On this notebook is a label that contains the FCC Registration Number and the
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this e quipm ent among other information. If requested,
the user must provide their telephone company with the following information:

1. The telephone number to which the notebook is connected.

2. The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment.

3. The equipment requires a standa rd modular jack type USOC RJ-11C
which is FCC Part 68 compliant.

4. The FCC Registration Num ber.

This equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or pre m ises wiring using
a standard modular jack type USOC R J-11C which is FCC Part 68 compliant and a line cord
between the modem and the telephone network with a minimum of 26AWG.

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that you may connect to your telephone
line and still have all of those devices ring when your number is called. Too many devices
on one line may result in failure to ring in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all,
areas the sum of the RENs of all of the devices should not exceed five (5). To be certain
of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the RENs, contact
your local telephone company. If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, your
telephone company may discontinue your service tem porarily. If possible, they will notify you
in advance. If advance notice is not practical they will notify you as soon as possible. You
will also be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

This fax modem also complies with fax branding requirements per FCC Part 68.

Your telephone company will probably ask you to disconnect this equipment from the telephone
network until the problem is corrected and you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.
This equipment may not be used on coin-operated telephones provided by your telephone
company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs. Contact your state’s public utility
commission, public service commission or corporation commission for more informat ion.

This equipment includes automatic dialing ca pability. When programming and/or
making test calls to emergency numbers:

• Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call.

• Perform such activities in off-peak hours, such as early morning o r late evening.

FCC rules prohibit the use of non-hearing aid compatible telephones in the
following locations or applications:

• All public or semi-public coin-operated or credit card telephones.

• Elevators, highways, tunnels (automobile, subway, railroad or pedestrian) where a
person with impaired hearing might be isolated in an emergency.

• Places where telephones are specifically installed to alert emergency authorities
such as fire, police or medical assistance p ersonnel.

• Hospital rooms, residential health care facilities, convalescent homes and prisons.

• Hotel, motel or apartment lobbies.

• Stores where telephones are used by patrons to order merchandise.

(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of this device.

FCC Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

2. Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver.

3. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from the one the receiver is connected to.

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Please note the following regulatory information related to the optional radio device.

FCC Radio Frequency Exposure statement

This radio device has been evaluated u nder FCC Bu lletin OET 65C and found compliant with the

Regulatory Notes and Statements
Radio device, health and authorisation for use

Radio-frequency electromagnetic energy is emitted from the wireless devices. The energy levels
of these emissions, however, are far much less than the electrom agnetic energy emissions from
wireless devices such as mobile phones. Radio devices are safe for use by co nsumers because
they operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations.

The use of the radio devices may be restricted in some situations or environments, such as:

• on board an airplane, or

• in an explosive environment, or

• in situations where the interference risk to other devices or service s is
perceived or identified as harmful.

In cases in which the policy regarding use of radio devices in specific environments is not
clear (e.g., airports, hospitals, chemical/oil/gas industrial plants, private buildings), obtain
authorization to use these devices prior to operating the equipment.
