LCD screen
LCDscreenNotes
High-quality LCD screens (TFT) are installed in Fujitsu notebooks. For technical reasons, these screens are manufactured for a specic resolution. An optimal, clear picture can only be ensured in the resolution intended for the particular screen. A screen resolution which differs from the specication can result in an unclear picture.
The resolution of the screen of your notebook is optimally set at the factory. Current production technology cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A few
isolated constantly lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number of such faulty pixels is specied in the international standard ISO 9241-30 7 (class 2).
Example:
A screen 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 9241-307 (class 2), a maximum of 2 ligh t and 2 dark pixels and in addition 5 light or 10 dark subpixels or an equivalent mix (1 light subpixel counts as 2 dark subpixels) are allowed to be defective.
At a resolution of 1600 x 900 = 1440000 pixels, a maximum of 3 light and 3 dark pixels and in addition 7 light or 14 dark subpixels are allowed to be defective.
Pixel
A pixel consists of
3 subpixels, normally red, green and
blue. A pixel is the
smallest element that can be generated
by complete funct
ionality of the display.
Subpixel
A subpixel is a se
parately addressable internal structure
within a pixel t
hat enhances the pixel function.
Cluster A cluster contains two or more defective pixels or
subpixels in a 5 x 5 pixel block.
Background l

n decrease during the period of use of the notebook. However, you can
set the brig

The notebook stylus is retained se curely in the stylus slot. This ensures that the stylus cannot be lost, regardless of whether you use the notebook as a Tablet PC or as a notebo ok, or transport it while traveling. Always replace the stylus in its slot when you are not using it. To remove from the stylus slot, slide the removal button for the stylus to the front of the device to the right.

Page 41
Working with the notebook
Only use the stylus provided with your notebook. Do not use substitute stylus tips that were not specially designed for your notebook. Replace the stylus tip if it is worn. The warranty does not cover a scratched screen.
While writing, you should take care that you do not scratch the surface of the display (e.g. with a wristw atch or bracelet).
The stylus of your notebook i
s an electronic instrument which can be dama ged
if used improperly. Handl
e the stylus with care.
Our recommendations for p
roper handling of the stylus are as follows:
Do not gesture with the st
ylus.
Do not use the stylus as a pointer.
Never use the stylus on a
ny other surface than the screen of your notebook.
Do not try to turn the grip of the stylus. The thumb grip is used to place the stylus in its slot and to take it ou t of the slot.
Never store the styl
us with its weight on the tip (e.g. with the tip down in a stylus
container). If the s
tylus is stored with the tip pointing down, this may have an
adverse effect on th
e stylus mechanism (particularly under high temperatures). In
this case the stylu
s tip may react as t hough it is constantly being pressed down. To
avoid damage, the s
tylus should be stored in the stylus slot when not in use.
The stylus can be inuenced by electromagnetic elds (cursor quivers or jumps). There may be a few areas on the screen where th e cursor quivers slightly in spite of p ressing the stylus down rmly.
The screen responds to entries made with the tip of the nger or the stylus when the tip of the nger or the stylus directly touches the screen.
You can use the stylus to perfo rm all functions for which you would otherwise use a mouse. In addition, you can co nven iently delete hand-written stylus entries using the pen.

Calibrating the stylus
If Windows 8.1 is installed on your Tablet PC, your Tablet PC is already calibrated at initial setup. If a different operating system is installed on your Tablet PC, you must calibrate it with the
stylus before rst use, so that it recognizes the stylus as accurately as possible. You should also always repeat the calibration if the co-ordination between the
stylus and the cursor movement deteriorates.
Operating system Menu
Windows 8.1 Deskto p
To calibrate, run the Hardware and Sound / Tablet PC Settings function in the Control Panel. You need to calibrate both portrait and landscape formats.
Replacing the stylus tip
With use, the stylus tip may become worn or may pick up foreign particles that can scratch the screen. A damaged or worn tip may not move freely, causing unpredictable results when using the stylus.
If your stylus exhibits these problems, you should replace the stylus tip. To do this, use the supplied tool (1).
1
To remove the tip, position it in the gap
between the two ends of the tool supplied.
Pinch the two ends of the supplied tool
together so that the tip is rmly clasped, then pull it from the barrel.
Replace the tip with one of the new tips
that were supplied with your stylus. Insert the at end of the tip into the barrel and exerting gentle pressure, push it in until it is rmly in place.
If the tip is worn or damaged, discard it.

During use as a portable, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the service life of the b attery by caring for the battery properly. T he average battery service life is around 500 charge/discharge cycles.
You can extend the battery service life by taking advantage of the available energy saving functions.
Charging, caring for and m aintaining the battery

Windows also has a "Battery charge meter" in the taskbar for m onitoring the battery capacity. When y ou place the mouse pointer on the battery symbol, the system displays the state of charge of the battery.
Battery storage
BatteryBatterySelf-discharge,batteryChargecapacity,battery
The battery should be stored in a dry environment at a temperature between 0°C / 32°F and 30°C / 86°F. The lower the storage temperature, the lower the rate of self-discharge.
If you will be storing batteries for a longer period (more than two months), the battery charge level should be approx. 3 0%. 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 optimum capacity of the battery, you should allow the battery to fully discharge and then recharge it.
If yo u will not use batteries for long periods, r emove them from the notebook. Never store batteries in the device.
