Additional safety notes for devices with radio components

Radiocomponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes

If a radio component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS) is integrated in your notebook, you
must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:

• Switch off the radio components when you are in an aircraft or driving in a car.

• Switch off the radio c omponent s when you are in a hospital, an operating room or near a medical
electronics system. The transmitted radio waves can impair the opera tion of medical devices.

• Switch off the radio components when you let the device get near flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petrol station, paintshops), as the
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a fire.

For information on how to switch radio components on and off, see chapter

Switching the wireless components on and off", Page 47.

Energy saving

NotesEnergyEnergysaving

Switch the notebook off when it is not in use. Switch off external, connected devices if you
are not using them. If you use the energy saving functions, the notebook uses less energy.
You will then be able to work for longer before having to recharge the battery.

Energy efficiency is increased and the environmental impact is reduced.
You save money while protecting the environment.

Energy saving under Windows

► Make use of the power management features (see ""Using the power-management features",

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).

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.

Troubleshooting and tips

Help if problems occur

Should you at any time have a problem with your computer th at you can’t solve
yourself, in many cases you can quickly solve it by using the SystemDiagnostics
program which is pre-installed on your computer.

The SystemDiagnostics program is already installed on devices which were
delivered with a Windows operating system.

► To start the SystemDiagnostics program, click on Sta rt sym bol - Program - Fujitsu - SystemDiagnostics.
► If a problem is found during a test run, the SystemDiagnostics program outputs

a code (e.g. DIFS-Code YXXX123456789123).

► Make a note of the output DIFS code and the identity number of your device. The identity

number can be found on the type rating plate on the back of the casing.

► For further clarification of the problem, contact the Service Desk for your country (see the Service

Desk list or visit the Internet at "

http://ts.fujitsu.com/support/servicedesk.html"). When you do

this, please have ready the identity number and serial number of your system and the DIFS code.
