CAUTION: HOT SURFACE: THEBOTTOMOFTHISCOMPUTERCANBECOMEHOTWHENUSEDFORLONGPERIODSOFTIME. WHENUSINGTHIS
Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a shorter amount of time; this is a natural occurrence
for all batteries. When this occurs, you may want to replace the battery with a fresh one*. If you replace it, it is important that you dispose
of the old battery properly because batteries contain materials that could cause environmental damage if disposed of improperly.
Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the services of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling
Corporation (RBRC)**, a non-profit public service organization dedicated to protecting our environment by recycling old
batteries at no cost to you.
RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousands of locations throughout the United States and Canada. To find the location
nearest you, go to www.RBRC.org
or call 1-800-822-8837.
If there are no convenient RBRC locations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer Education Initiative website (http://EIAE.org/
search for a convenient disposal location.
Remember – protecting the environment is a cooperative effort, and you should make every effort to protect it for current and future
generations.

Calibrating the Display
In order to ensure accurate tracking between the stylus and cursor, you must run the Calibration Utility before you use
the system for the first time, or after you change the display resolution.
To run the calibration utility:
1Go to Start -> Control Panel.
2Double-click the Tablet PC Settings icon and select the Display tab
3Click the [Calibrate] button, then select whether you want to calibrate pen input or touch input.
4Adjust the display of your Tablet PC to a comfortable angle and find the (+) symbol in the upper-left corner of the
5Using the stylus or your finger (depending upon which type of input you are calibrating), firmly touch the screen
directly on the (+) symbol. Lift the stylus from the screen and the target will move to a different screen location.
6Repeat step 5 until you have selected all of the (+) symbols.
7Once you have selected all the symbols, press the [OK] button.
8Touch the stylus to various points on the screen to verify that the screen is correctly calibrated. If you are not
satisfied with the screen’s calibration, press the [Calibrate]) button to begin again.
Using the Capacitive Touchscreen
This Tablet PC has an optional dual digitizer that allows you to use either the stylus or your finger(s) as a pointing
device. This type of display also allows you to use “gestures” to perform such actions as scroll, zoom, and rotate.
To perform a right-click action using two fingers, press the first finger at the location you want to perform a right-click,
then quickly tap and release the second finger on the screen.
Generic Gesture Mode
Your tablet has a few gestures to which it responds, as detailed below. (Note: In order to enjoy a much more robust
set of gesture actions, you should install N-act™ using the Bonus Apps utility. See “Using N-act™” on page 28). To
initiate gesture mode, two fingers must touch the screen within 200 ms of each other. If the second finger touches
the screen after 200 ms has elapsed, the second finger is ignored. If more than two fingers touch the screen in that
time, Advanced Gesture Mode is activated instead. When Gesture Mode is activated, no cursor movement is sent to
the system.
When both fingers are removed, Gesture mode ends. When a third finger is added, gesture mode ends and Advanced
gesture mode is activated. Note that if a gesture can’t be recognized, no action is taken. In that case, remove both
fingers from the screen and try again.
26
- Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
Scrolling Gesture
To scroll through long documents or on a web page, place both fingers on the screen (one finger quickly followed by
the second). If at least one finger has moved at least 3 mm, a scroll is considered. If both fingers are moving in the
same direction and parallel (given a tolerance of 5 mm), Scroll Mode is activated. If one finger is stationary, it is not
considered a scroll. If either finger is lifted, Scroll Mode is canceled.
Zoom Gesture
The zoom gesture is especially helpful when viewing pictures. To zoom in, place two fingers on the item you want to
enlarge (one finger quickly followed by the second), then spread them away from each other.
If at least one finger has moved at least 10 mm, a zoom event is considered. If the distance between the fingers has
changed by at least 10 mm, and both fingers have stayed on approximately the same line, Zoom Mode is entered. If
either finger strays more than 10 mm from the “zoom line” created when the fingers first made contact, the zoom is
canceled.
To zoom out, place two fingers on the item you want to reduce (one finger quickly followed by the second), then move
them towards each other.
Rotate Gesture
To change the orientation of an object on the screen, place two fingers on the image you want to rotate (one finger
quickly followed by the second), then move them in opposite directions (as if you were turning a knob). The direction
the item turns is dependant upon the direction you move your fingers.
If at least one finger moves at least 12 mm, a rotate is considered. If one finger is stationary (moving less than 5 mm
in any direction), and the other is moving, a rotate is considered. If the fingers begin moving in the same direction,
the rotation is canceled. If the distance between the fingers changes by more than 10 mm, the rotation is canceled.
27
- Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
Using N-act™
N-act™ multi-touch application allows you to interact directly with the screen. N-act lets you use 1-, 2-, 3-, or 4-finger
gestures to perform a number of actions that make using your tablet all the more enjoyable. To start N-act, you must
first install it using the Bonus Apps utility (see “Installing Bonus Apps” on page 41). The following table explains
briefly what each of the gestures does.

Accessing the OnScreen TouchPad
Your tablet has a handy on-screen touchpad that offers a variety of helpful functions. Features of the OnScreen
TouchPad include:
• Virtual Mouse Emulator: The Virtual Mouse Emulator works in much the same manner as a hardware mouse.
With the virtual mouse, you can scroll, drag, and click, as well as perform [Ctl]+[Click] and [Shift]+[Click]
actions.
• Application Launch/Key Macro: This window provides access to five pages, each of which can contain up to
twenty buttons. Each button can be programmed to open an application, a folder, document, or key (such as
[Esc], [ Alt+X] and [Page Up]).
29
- Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
• Digital Keyboard: This window provides a soft keyboard for use in mathematical procedures. It works in much
the same way as the Windows standard calculator.
To access the OnScreen TouchPad, you must first install it using the Bonus Apps utility (see “Installing Bonus Apps”
on page 41 for more information). Once it has been installed, go to the Start Menu > All Programs > Fujitsu OnScreen
TouchPad. To learn more about the utility, click on Usage and Help.
There are a few changes you can make to your pen settings in order to make it more suitable to your needs (such as
changing the pressure sensitivity). To do so, go to Start > Control Panel and select one of the icon views from the “View
by:” dropdown. Click on the Pen and Touch icon to open the window from which you can change a variety of pen
settings.
The pen contains a AAAA-battery. Before proceeding, be sure to
have a new battery available.

Boot Sequence
The procedure for starting-up your Tablet PC is termed the Bootup sequence and involves your Tablet PC’s BIOS. When
your STYLISTIC Tablet PC is first turned on, the main system memory is empty, and it needs to find instructions to start
up your Tablet PC. This information is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or restart your Tablet PC, it goes
through a boot sequence which displays a Fujitsu logo until your operating system is loaded. During booting, your
Tablet PC is performing a standard boot sequence including a Power On Self Test (POST). When the boot sequence is
completed without a failure and without a request for the BIOS Setup Utility, the system displays the operating
system’s opening screen.
The boot sequence is executed when:
• You turn on the power to your STYLISTIC Tablet PC.
• You restart your Tablet PC from the Windows Shut Down dialog box.
• The software initiates a system restart. Example: When you install a new application.

Power Management
Your Fujitsu STYLISTIC Tablet PC has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features
are automatic and need no user intervention. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your
operating conditions, such as those for the display brightness. Internal power management for your Tablet PC may
be controlled from settings made in your operating system, pre-bundled power management application, or from
settings made in BIOS setup utility.
Besides the options available for conserving battery power, there are also some things that you can do to prevent
your battery from running down as quickly. For example, you can create an appropriate power saving profile, put your
Tablet PC into Sleep mode when it is not performing an operation, and you can limit the use of high power devices.
As with all mobile, battery powered computers, there is a trade-off between performance and power savings.
Power/Suspend/Resume Switch
When your Tablet PC is active, the Power/Suspend/Resume switch can be used to manually put the Tablet PC into Sleep
mode. Push the Power/Suspend/Resume switch when the Tablet PC is active, but not actively accessing anything, and
immediately release the button.
If your Tablet PC is suspended, pushing the Power/Suspend/Resume switch returns it to active operation. You can tell
whether the system is Suspended by looking at the Power indicator. If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your
Tablet PC is fully operational. If the indicator is visible
not visible, the power is off or your Tablet PC is in Hibernation mode.
Sleep Mode
Sleep mode in Windows saves the contents of your system memory during periods of inactivity by maintaining power
to critical parts. This mode turns off the CPU, display, hard drive, and all other internal components except those
necessary to maintain system memory and for restarting.
and

Your Tablet PC can be put in sleep mode by:
• Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume switch when your system is turned on.
• Selecting “Sleep” after clicking [Start] then clicking the small arrow at the bottom right of the window.
• Timing out from lack of activity.
• Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery Warning condition.
42
- Power Management
Your Tablet PC’s system memory typically stores the file on which you are working, open application information, and
any other data required to support operations in progress. When you resume operation from Sleep mode, your Tablet
PC will return to the point where it left off. You must use the Power/Suspend/Resume switch to resume operation, and
there must be an adequate power source available, or your Tablet PC will not resume.

User-Installable Features
Lithium Polymer Battery
Your STYLISTIC Tablet PC has a Lithium Polymer battery that provides power for operating your Tablet PC when no
external power source is available. The battery is durable and long lasting, but should not be exposed to extreme
temperatures, high voltages, chemicals or other hazards.
The Lithium Polymer battery operating time may become shorter if it is used under the following conditions:
• When used at temperatures that exceed a low of 5°C or a high of 35°C (41° to 95° F). Extreme temperatures not
only reduce charging efficiency, but can also cause battery deterioration. The Charging icon on the Status
Indicator panel will flash when you try to charge a battery that is outside its operating temperature range.
• When using a high current device such as an external optical drive or the hard drive, using the AC adapter will
conserve your battery life.

If you want to know the condition of the primary Lithium Polymer battery, check the Battery Level indicator located
on the Status Indicator panel. The indicator changes as the battery level changes.
The Lithium Polymer battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter or Auto/Airline adapter. To recharge the
battery make sure the battery that needs to be charged is installed in your STYLISTIC Tablet PC and connect the AC or
Auto/Airline adapter.
M
AKESURETHATTHEPERCENTAGECHARGEISINDICATEDBYTHE BATTERY CHARGINGINDICATORONTHE STATUS INDICATOR PANEL.
There is no memory effect on the Lithium Polymer battery therefore you do not need to discharge the battery
completely before recharging. The charge times will be significantly longer if your Tablet PC is in use while the battery
is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly, put your Tablet PC into Sleep mode, or turn it off while the
adapter is charging the battery. (See Power Management on page 42 for mor e information on Sleep mode and shutdown
When the battery is running low, a low battery notification message will appear. If you do not respond to the low
message, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens, your Tablet
PC will go into Sleep mode. There is no guarantee that your data will be saved once the Tablet PC reaches this point.

Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indicator just like the normal Sleep mode. Once your Tablet PC goes
into Dead Battery Suspend mode you will be unable to resume operation until you provide a source of power either
from an adapter, or a charged battery. Once you have provided power, you will need to press the
Power/Suspend/Resume switch to resume operation.
In the Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data can be maintained for some time, but if a power source is not provided
promptly, the Power indicator will stop flashing and go out, meaning that you have lost the data that was not stored.
Once you provide power, you can continue to use your Tablet PC while an adapter is charging the battery.
Shorted Batteries
The Status Indicator panel indicator associated with the Battery Level indicator displays the operating level available
in that battery. If this display shows a flashing red LED, it means the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it
does not damage other parts of your STYLISTIC Tablet PC.
Replacing the Battery
With the purchase of an additional battery, you can have a fully charged spare to swap with one that is not charged.
There are two ways to swap batteries, cold-swapping and hot-swapping:
Cold-swapping Batteries

separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 1.160.10.240 could be an IP address.
Within an isolated network, you can assign IP addresses at random as long as each one is unique. However,
connecting a private network to the Internet requires using registered IP addresses (called Internet addresses) to
avoid duplicates.
The four numbers in an IP address are used in different ways to identify a particular network and a host on that
network. Three regional Internet registries -- ARIN, RIPE NCC and APNIC -- assign Internet addresses from the following
three classes.
Class A - supports 16 million hosts on each of 126 networks
Class B - supports 65,000 hosts on each of 16,000 networks
Class C - supports 254 hosts on each of 2 million networks
The number of unassigned Internet addresses is running out, so a new classless scheme called CIDR is gradually
replacing the system based on classes A, B, and C and is tied to adoption of IPv6.

Serial Port
A connection to another device through which data is transferred one bit at a time on a single wire with any other
wires only for control of the device not for transfer of data.
Shared key authentication
802.11 network authentication method in which the AP sends the client device a challenge text packet that the client
must then encrypt with the correct WEP key and return to the AP. If the client has the wrong key or no key,
authentication will fail and the client will not be allowed to associate with the AP. Shared key authentication is not
considered secure, because a hacker who detects both the clear-text challenge and the same challenge encrypted
with a WEP key can decipher the key.
86
-
SSID
Service Set Identifier, a 32-character unique identifier attached to the header of packets sent over a WLAN that acts
as a password when a mobile device tries to connect to the BSS. The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, so
all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID. A device will not
be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID. Because the SSID is broadcast in plain text, it does
not supply any security to the network.

FCC Radio Frequency Exposure statement
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however,
that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range
while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposure have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that
some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research.
The wireless LAN radio device has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled equipment and meets
the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.

Wireless LAN Modes Using this Device
Ad Hoc Mode
“Ad Hoc Mode” refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivity between multiple
computers is established without a central wireless network device, typically known as Access Point(s). Connectivity
is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-peer fashion. That is why Ad Hoc networks are also known as
peer-to-peer networks. Ad Hoc networks are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network connectivity
between multiple computers. Ad Hoc mode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and encryption key
settings are identically configured on all computers in the Ad Hoc network.

upon the type of access point used.
Infrastructure mode refers to a wireless network architecture in which devices communicate with wireless or wired
network devices by communicating through an Access Point. In infrastructure mode, wireless devices can
communicate with each other or with a wired network. Corporate wireless networks operate in infrastructure mode
because they require access to the WLAN in order to access services, devices, and computers (e.g., file servers,
printers, databases).

How to Handle This Device
The WLAN device is an optional device that may come pre-installed in your mobile computer. Under normal
circumstances, it should not be necessary for you to remove or re-install it. The operating system that your mobile
computer comes with has been pre-configured to support the WLAN device.
• The Wireless LAN devices support IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802.11n.
• The WLAN devices operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and the 5 GHz lower, middle, and upper UNII bands.
• Microwave ovens may interfere with the operation of WLAN devices since they operate in the same 2.4 GHz
frequency range as IEEE802.11b/g/n devices. Interference by microwaves does not occur with IEEE802.11a
radio which operates in the 5 GHz RF band.
• Wireless devices that transmit in the 2.4 GHz range may interfere with operation of WLAN devices in
IEEE802.11b/g/n modes. Symptoms of interference include reduced throughput, intermittent disconnects, and
many frame errors. It is HIGHLY recommended that these interfering devices be powered off to ensure proper
operation of the WLAN device.
Deactivating/Disconnecting the WLAN Device
Disconnecting the WLAN device may be desired in certain circumstances (to extend battery life) or where certain
environments require it (i.e. hospitals, clinics, airplanes, etc.). The WLAN device can be deactivated by using the
Wireless On/Off Switch, and it can be disconnected in Windows using the WLAN icon in the system tray (Note that
disconnecting via the icon in the system tray does not turn off the radio; it continues to transmit and receive even
though it’s not connected.)
