3.75 A (60 W).
When using your notebook equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:
Do not use this product near water for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement

Recycling your battery
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/) and 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.
* To order a new battery for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site at www.shopfujitsu.com in the US or
www.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks
in Canada.
** RBRC is an independent third party to which Fujitsu provides funding for battery recycling; RBRC is in no way affiliated with Fujitsu.

ENERGY STAR® Compliance
Your Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR® qualified mobile PC. By choosing a computer with the latest energy-saving technology, you’re helping to preserve our environment for future generations.
ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department of Energy, Natural Resources Canada, and other governments around the world
helping us save money while protecting the environment through energy efficient products and practices. With energy costs and global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu is committed to offering solutions that help consumers conserve energy and improve the quality of our environment.
Sleep Mode:
You will notice that your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 15 minutes of user inactivity, and the computer goes into Sleep mode after 20 minutes of user inactivity. When going into Sleep mode, the computer also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network links. To “wake” the computer from Sleep mode, slide the Suspend/Resume switch.
Energy saving benefits:
Fujitsu ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standard equipment – saving half in utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a difference for the environment. Did you know that the average house can be responsible for twice the greenhouse gas emissions as the average car? That’s because every time you flip on a light switch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy efficiency, the more we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming.

Tertiary Functions of Application and Navigation Buttons
While you are booting up your system, the Application Buttons and Navigation buttons can be used for entering and navigating through the Basic Input-Output System (BIOS), and for invoking the Advanced Options Menu, where you can enter different modes (such as Safe Mode).
The BIOS is a program and a set of parameters that are stored in ROM, which tests and operates your Tablet PC from when you turn it on until it loads your installed operating system from disk. Information from the BIOS is transferred to the operating system to provide it with information on the configuration and status of the hardware.
The system is booting up while the Fujitsu logo is displayed immediately after turning on the system. The table below indicates how the buttons act while the system is booting up and while you are in the BIOS.
When Cursor Up portion is pressed, the cursor will move up.
When pressed with the Function (Fn) button*, the Cursor Up button will move the cursor to the right.
When Cursor Down portion is pressed, the cursor will move down.
When pressed with the Function (Fn) button*, the Cursor Down button will move the cursor to the left.

Shutting Down
Before turning off the power, check that the hard drive access indicator is off. If you turn off the power while accessing a disk there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your notebook shuts down without error, use the Windows shut down procedure.
Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your notebook to complete its operations and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:
Windows Vista: Click the [Start] button, and then move the mouse over the small arrow at the bottom right of the right-hand pane. Select Shut Down from the list.
Windows XP Tablet PC: Click the [Start] button, click Turn Off Computer, and then select the Tur n off option.
If you are going to store your notebook for a month or more, see the Care and Maintenance section.
Suspending System Operation
The Tablet PC allows you to suspend the system operation without closing programs or exiting the operating system. Use this feature to conserve battery power when a system shutdown is not practical or when the battery needs to be changed.
BE SURE TO CLOSE ALL FILES AND EXIT ALL APPLICATIONS PRIOR TO TURNING OFF THE POWER. IF
FILES ARE OPEN WHEN YOU TURN THE POWER OFF, YOU WILL LOSE ANY CHANGES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN SAVED, AND MAY CAUSE DISK ERRORS.
ST6000.book Page 50 Monday, November 3, 2008 10:23 AM
Page 51
To suspend system operation:
1 Slide the Suspend/Resume switch, or carry out the Sleep command from your operating system or power
management program. (If your system is configured to suspend operation using Hibernate mode, which is explained later in this procedure, a message is displayed while data is saved to your hard disk.)
2 The Power icon either flashes (Sleep) or is not displayed (Hibernate) when system operation is suspended,
depending on how your system is configured. At this point, programs that were running are stopped, active data is saved, and the system enters one of two different low-power states, or sleep modes, as explained in the following paragraphs.
3 Observe the Power icon in the Status display to determine which suspend mode your system is using.
Power icon is blinking: Sleep mode.
In this mode, active data is saved by maintaining power to RAM while most other system components are powered off. The Battery Gauge icon in the Status display indicates the battery charge level.
Power icon is not displayed: Hibernate mode.
In this mode, active data is stored on the hard disk drive and power usage is reduced to the same level used in the Off state. When the system is in Hibernate mode, the Battery Gauge icon is not visible in the Status display. In this mode, there is no danger of losing data if battery power is lost.
IF YOU ARE REPLACING THE BATTERY, WAIT UNTIL SYSTEM OPERATION IS SUSPENDED AND THE POWER
ICON IS FLASHING BEFORE YOU REMOVE THE BATTERY. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF
YOUR UNSAVED DATA. (NOTE THAT IF THE RESUME ON LAN FUNCTION IS ENABLED IN THE BIOS SETUP, YOU SHOULD NOT REMOVE THE BATTERY UNLESS THE SYSTEM IS SHUT DOWN. WHEN RESUME
ON LAN
IS ENABLED, THE BRIDGE BATTERY IS DISABLED IN ORDER TO OPTIMIZE BATTERY LIFE.)
ST6000.book Page 51 Monday, November 3, 2008 10:23 AM
Page 52
You can remove the battery while the system is in Sleep or Hibernate modes in order to install a
charged battery. To prevent losing unsaved data, wait until system operation has suspended before you remove the battery. Note that after you remove the battery, you have approximately five minutes to replace it with a new battery or to plug in a power supply before the bridge battery is depleted.
Your system may be configured to suspend operation automatically after a period of inactivity.
Your system may be configured to enter Hibernate mode automatically after a period of time in
Sleep mode.
The system uses a small amount of battery power when in Sleep mode. Eventually, the battery will
become fully discharged.
If the battery charge drops to a Low-Battery Warning level while the system is running, the system
will beep periodically. If this occurs, suspend system operation, shut down the system, or attach an external power source, such as the AC adapter, to the Tablet PC.
If the battery charge drops to a Critically Low level while the system is running, the system is forced
into a Sleep or Hibernate mode. If this occurs, you must either install a charged battery, or connect an external power source such as the AC adapter before you can resume system operation. (If the charge drops to a Critically Low level while the system is in Sleep mode, the system stays in that mode until power is restored or totally dissipated.)
IF YOU WILL NOT BE USING THE SYSTEM FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD, SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM RATHER
THAN USING SLEEP MODE.
ST6000.book Page 52 Monday, November 3, 2008 10:23 AM
Page 53
The suspend action of the Suspend/Resume switch may be disabled to prevent accidental
interruption. If this is the case, sliding the Suspend/Resume switch will not suspend system operation as described here. (In this case, sleep mode can only be achieved using the system software). Contact your local help desk or reseller if your system configuration is not suitable.
If your system is equipped with a PC Card that allows you to connect to a wired or wireless network,
you may be logged off the network after a period of inactivity while system operation is suspended. Contact a network administrator or help desk, or call Fujitsu Service and Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838-5487) for details on your network log-off parameters.
Resuming Operation
To resume operation from either Sleep or Hibernate modes, slide the Suspend/Resume switch.
From Sleep mode
Status lights indicate that the system state is changing. It may take up to a minute before the system returns to the On state and system operation resumes. Note that the display turns on shortly before the pen becomes active due to the power-up sequences observed by the system.
From Hibernate mode
Active data is read from the hard disk drive, and the system returns to the On state after a short time.
NOTE THAT POWER TO SEVERAL SYSTEM COMPONENTS MUST BE RESTORED BEFORE SYSTEM
OPERATION RESUMES. ALLOW SUFFICIENT TIME FOR SYSTEM OPERATION TO RESUME BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO USE THE SYSTEM. IF YOUR SYSTEM USES HIBERNATE MODE, IT WILL TAKE LONGER TO RESUME OPERATION AS COMPARED TO USING SLEEP MODE. TIME IS NEEDED TO READ DATA FROM THE HARD DISK DRIVE.

Programs that support handwriting recognition also allow you to write characters directly on the screen with the pen. You can also use the pen as a drawing tool.
Figure 10. Stylistic ST6000 pen
THE STYLISTIC ST6000 PEN IS A SOPHISTICATED, HIGH-QUALITY ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENT THAT CAN BE DAMAGED
IF USED IMPROPERLY. TREAT THE PEN AS YOU WOULD ANY PRECISION DEVICE. THE FOLLOWING LIST CONTAINS GUIDELINES FOR PROPER PEN HANDLING:
DO NOT USE THE PEN AS A POINTER OR TAP IT ON SURFACES OTHER THAN THE TABLET SCREEN.
DO NOT TRY TO TURN THE THUMB GRIP ON THE PEN; IT IS DESIGNED FOR INSERTING AND REMOVING THE
PEN FROM THE PEN HOLDER AND FOR ATTACHING A PEN TETHER.
NEVER STORE THE PEN WITH THE TIP BEARING THE PENS WEIGHT PEN (E.G., SITTING TIP DOWN IN A PENCIL
CUP). STORING THE PEN TIP DOWN COULD DISTORT THE INTERNAL MECHANISM OVER A PERIOD OF TIME
(
ESPECIALLY IN HIGHER TEMPERATURES), CAUSING THE TIP TO ACT AS IF IT IS ALWAYS DEPRESSED. TO AVOID

front toggle (closest to the pen tip) barrel button switch corresponds to the right mouse button (when used in combination with the tip switch). The rear toggle of the barrel button switch and the eraser switch at the end of the barrel act as electronic ink “erasers”.
The rear toggle, eraser, and tip click pressures can be changed by clicking [Start] -> Control Panel, and double-clicking Fujitsu Pen Settings (XP) or Pen and Input Devices (Vista) icon. Note that the rear toggle switch and the eraser switch are both affected by the same settings; they cannot be changed individually.
To change rear toggle and eraser button functions, select the drop-down list to select a new function, then click [Apply]. If you don’t want the rear toggle and button switch to have any function, select Ignore.
Adjusting the click pressure determines how much pressure must be put on the pen tip in order for the screen to react. The softer it is set, the less pressure required; the harder it is set, the more pressure required. To change the click pressure, use the slider bar to make the click pressure harder or softer, then click [Apply].
Here are some hints that may help you use the pen more effectively:
To activate the tip switch, tap or hold the pen tip against the screen.
To activate the barrel button switch, press and hold the end of the button you wish to use (front
toggle is the right mouse button switch; the rear toggle acts as an electronic “eraser”).
To move the cursor, hold the pen tip within 1/8 inch (3 - 5mm) from the screen and move the pen.
ENSURE THAT A SCREEN PROTECTOR IS INSTALLED ON THE TABLET PC SCREEN BEFORE YOU USE THE PEN.
T
HE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER A SCRATCHED SCREEN.
USE ONLY THE PEN PROVIDED WITH YOUR TABLET PC. DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTES THAT WERE NOT DESIGNED
FOR THE STYLISTIC ST6000 SERIES TABLET PC.

User-Installable Features
Lithium ion Battery
Charging the Battery
The Stylistic ST6000 Series battery can be charged while it is installed in the Tablet PC. To charge the battery:
1 Connect a DC power source, such as the AC adapter, to the DC input connector on the Tablet PC. The DC Input
icon appears in the Status display. If the battery charge is below 90%, the battery begins charging and the Charging icon appears in the Status display. If the battery charge is 90% or higher when you connect DC power, the battery will not charge, preventing battery overcharging.
2 Look at the Battery Charge icon in the Status display to determine the percent of charge in the battery. See
“Status Display” in Chapter 1 of this manual for a description of the Battery Charge icon.
As long as DC power remains connected to the Tablet PC, the charging process continues until the battery charge reaches 100%.
Also note the following with respect to charging the battery:
You can use the system, suspend system operation, or shut down and turn off the system without
interrupting the charging process; however, using the system while the battery is charging will cause the battery to charge at a slower rate.
As noted in the procedure above, the system will not begin charging the battery if the battery charge
level is 90% or higher when the system is initially connected to external DC power. (This prevents the battery from being overcharged.)
The battery uses Lithium ion battery cells which have no “memory effect.” You do not need to

Tips for Conserving Battery Power
You can extend the charge life of your battery by conserving battery power. (Your results may vary depending on your application and how the system is configured.) Here are some suggestions to help you conserve battery power:
Use an external power source such as the AC adapter whenever the system is docked.
Suspend system operation if you know that you won’t be using the system for a while.
Shut down the system if you won’t be using the system for an extended period of time.
Switch the wireless LAN switch Off when wireless LAN functionality in not needed (applicable
only for systems with optional wireless LAN).
Use power management (available from the Power Options in the Control Panel) to help you
conserve power automatically.
Reduce the brightness of the LCD.
Battery life is dependent upon the operating system, power settings, and applications in use.
Operation of the Bridge Battery
When installed in the Tablet PC, the battery provides power to some system components—even when the system is in the Off state. When the battery is removed, power is supplied to these components by a “bridge” battery that is built into the Tablet PC.
The bridge battery is not designed for long-term operation. To maintain the bridge battery properly, observe the following measures:
THE BRIDGE BATTERY FUNCTION IS DISABLED IF WAKE ON LAN IS ENABLED IN THE BIOS.
ST6000.book Page 65 Monday, November 3, 2008 10:23 AM
Page 66
The bridge battery charges when the AC Adapter is connected and the system is in On or Off states
or Sleep mode. It charges from the battery only when the system is in the On state.
Memory Stick/SD Card Slot
Your Tablet PC supports Memory Stick and SD flash memory cards on which you can store and transfer data to and from a variety of digital devices. These cards use flash memory architecture, which means they don’t need a power source to retain data.
Inserting Memory Stick/SD Cards
Memory Sticks and SD Cards are inserted in the Memory Stick/SD Card slot (Figure 15). To insert a Memory Stick or SD Card, follow these steps:
Memory Stick is a flash memory technology developed by Sony Electronics. Memory Stick allows you to record, transfer and share digital content, such as digital pictures, movies, music, voice, and computer data and applications.
Secure Digital (SD) Cards are very similar to Memory Sticks, but they are shorter. Like the Memory Stick, SD Cards allow portable storage among a variety of devices, such as cell phones, GPS systems, and digital cameras. SD Cards transfer data quickly, with low battery consumption. It uses flash memory architecture.

Troubleshooting
Solutions to some common problems are described in the following sections. If you are experiencing a problem with your Tablet PC that you cannot solve by taking the actions described, contact your local help desk or reseller, or call Fujitsu Service and Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838-5487) for further assistance.
System Will Not Resume Operation
If the system will not resume operation after system operation has been suspended, check the following:
The battery may either be defective, or discharged to a critically low level. When the battery reaches
a critically low level, the system is forced into Sleep mode to avoid a total system power failure. To correct this problem, either connect an external power supply (such as the AC adapter), or install a charged battery in the Tablet PC.
The system may be at the critical thermal limit. To avoid damage to heat-sensitive components, the
system enters sleep mode when it gets too hot. System operation cannot be resumed until the Tablet PC cools off to a tolerable temperature. Move the Tablet PC to a cooler location.
Display Screen Blank or Difficult to Read
If the display screen on your Tablet PC appears blank or is unreadable, confirm that the system is running (the Power icon is displayed continuously on the Status display), and check the following:
The system brightness may be set too low, causing the screen to appear too dark. To change system
brightness, press the Fn button twice to open the Fujitsu menu. Brightness can be adjusted from the menu.
The video timeout may have expired. Tap on the display screen to reactivate the display. Note that
this is a normal, power-saving feature.

Infrared Data Transfer Is Not Working
If you are experiencing problems transferring data over the system’s infrared interface, note the following:
Can the IrDA port on the Tablet PC “see” the IrDA port on the other device? A direct line-of-sight
path must exist between the IrDA port on the Tablet PC and the IrDA port on the other device.
The distance between the two devices must not be more than 3 feet.
The viewing angle from the IrDA port on the Tablet PC must not be more than 15 degrees from a
center line between the IrDA port on the Tablet PC and the IrDA port on the other device.
The device with which you are trying to communicate must be compliant with the IrDA Standard
Revision 1.1 (or 1.0).
It may be necessary for both computers to be using the same network connection protocols.
Tablet PC is Not Responding to the Pen
If the Tablet PC does not respond to the pen, connect an external keyboard to the system to see if it responds to keyboard commands. If the system doesn’t respond to a keyboard, the application or system may have crashed, and it may be necessary to reboot the system. If the system responds to a keyboard but not to a pen, contact your local help desk or reseller, or call Fujitsu Service and Support at 1-800-8Fujitsu (1-800-838-5487) for further assistance.
Speaker/Headphone Volume Too Low
If the audio volume on your Tablet PC speaker or external headphones is too low, check the following:
Ensure the speaker (or headphone output if using headphones) is enabled. To do so, open the
Control Panel and double-click on the Sounds and Audio Devices icon. Select the proper tab, and increase the volume using the slider bar. (If you aren’t getting any sound, uncheck the Mute box if

FCC Regulatory Information
Please note the following regulatory information related to the optional wireless LAN device.
Regulatory Notes and Statements
Wireless LAN, Health and Authorization for use
Radio frequency electromagnetic energy is emitted from Wireless LAN devices. The energy levels of these emissions, however, are far much less than the electromagnetic energy emissions from wireless devices such as mobile phones. Wireless LAN devices are safe for use by consumers because they operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations. The use of Wireless LAN 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 services is perceived or identified as harmful.
In cases in which the policy regarding use of Wireless LAN devices in specific environments is not clear (e.g., airports, ho
spitals, chemical/oil/gas industrial plants, private buildings), obtain authorization to use these devices prior to operating the

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.
Export restrictions
This product or software contains encryption code which may not be exported or transferred from the US or Canada without an approved US Department of Commerce export license. This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules., as well as ICES 003 B / NMB 003 B. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesirable operation. Modifications not expressly authorized by Fujitsu Computer Systems Corp. may invalidate the user's right to operate this equipment.

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.

Access Point (Infrastructure) Mode
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 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.).
BEFORE USING THE WIRELESS LAN DEVICE, YOU MUST FIRST INSTALL CLICKME! TO ENSURE THAT THE
CORRECT SOFTWARE FOR YOUR DEVICE IS INSTALLED. SEE “INSTALLING CLICK ME!” ON PAGE 40.

Disconnection Using the Icon in the Taskbar
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.
1 Right-click the WLAN icon in the taskbar at the bottom right of your screen. 2 Choose Disconnect from a network.
Activating the WLAN Device
Activation of the WLAN device can be accomplished using the same methods as the deactivation process
