Additional safety notes for devices with wireless components
Wirelesscomponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes
If a wireless component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS, LTE) is incorporated into your notebook,
you must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your not ebook:
• Switch off the wire less components when you are in an aircraft or driving in a car.
• Switch off the wireless components when you 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 wireless components when yo u let the device get n ear flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petro l station, paintshops), as the
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a fire.
For information on how to switch wireless components on and off, see chapter

Important notes
Before you travel
► Back up important data stored on your hard disk.
NotebookTravel,notebook
► Switch off the wireless 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 wireless 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 m ains 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 government office of the country you will be travelling in as to
whether you may operate the wireless component integrated in your notebook there (see also ).
Notebook: transporting
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 m ains 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.

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

Selecting a location
SelectingalocationDeviceMainsadapter
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.

LCDscreenNotes
High-quality LCD screens (TFT) are installed in Fujitsu noteboo ks. For technical reasons,
these screens are manufactured for a certain 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 picture.
The resolution of your notebook’s screen is optimally set 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 screen w ith an HD resolution of 1366 x 768 has 1366 x 768 = 1049088 pixels. Each pixel consists
of three subpixels (red, green and blue), making a total o f 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 counts as 2 dark subpixels) are allowed to be defective.

When not plugged into a m ains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You

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

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

(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.

Chargingcap
Store battery packs in a dry environ ment at a temperature between 0°C / 32°F and 30°C / 86°F. 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 (lon ger 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 the m from the

Configuring password protection in BIOS Setup Utility
Before using the various options for password protection in the BIOS Setup u tility
to increase data security, please observe the following:
Make a note of the passwords and keep them in a safe place. If you forget your
supervisor password you will not be able to access your notebook. Deletion of the

The supervisor password and the user password both prevent unauthorised use of the BIOS Setup
Utility. With the aid of the supervisor password you can access all of the functions of the BIOS
Setup Utility, while the user password will only give you access to some of the functions. You
can only set up a user password if a supervisor password has already been assigned.

Securityfunctions,Securityfunctions
SmartCards are not supplied as s tand ard equipment. You can use all SmartCards that comply with
the ISO standard 7816-1, -2 or -3. These SmartCards are available from various manufacturers.
With the appropriate software you can use your SmartCard as an alternative to password protection,
but also as a digital signature, for encrypting your e-mails or for home banking.
We recommend that you always use two SmartCards. Always keep one of the SmartCard s
in a safe place if you are carrying the other SmartCard with you.
In order to be able to take advantage of all the security features of your notebook,
you will need a CardOS SmartCard from Fujitsu.
The SmartCard can only be used with a PIN, offering maximum protection even if
you lose the SmartCard. In order to maximise your security, the CardOS SmartCard
is disabled if three incorrect attempts are made to enter the PIN.
When you use the CardOS SmartCard for the first time, you will either need to enter the
preset PIN "12345678" or the PIN given to you by your systems administrator.

You must open the service compartment to remove or install a memory module. On some devices,
opening the compartment may expose other components. These components should be removed
and replaced only by authorised specialists. Therefore, be 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 re moving
