Recycling your battery
DRAFT
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 disp ose 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 St ates and Canada. To find the location nearest you, go to www.RBRC.org
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.

DRAFT
If you would like to use the system as a tablet, perform the following steps.
The display can be rotated in either direction, but when returnin g the system to notebook mode,
be sure to turn it back to its original position (i.e., the reverse of how you turned it when you opened it). Turning the display in the incorrect direction could cause hinge damage. The screen should rotate easily; if it does not rotate easily, you may be turning it in the wrong direction.
In the following step, be sure to position the display perpendicular to the keyboard, otherwise
the keyboard or display cover could get scratched.
1 Lift the display until it is perpendicular to the keyboard. (Figure 9). 2 When the display is perpendicular to the keyboard, rotate it 180 degrees in either direction so that it is facing
backwards.
3 Holding the top edge of the display panel, pull it forward until it is lying atop the keyboard.
To return the system to notebook configuration:
1 Lift the display until it is perpendicular to the keyboard. 2 When the display is perpendicular to the keyboard, rotate it 180 degrees in the opposite direction from which
you initially turned it (i.e., return it to its original position) so that it faces forwar d.

To run the calibration utility:
1 Go to Start -> Control Panel. 2 Double-click the Tablet PC Settings icon and select the Display tab 3 Click the [Calibrate] button, then select whether you want to calibrate pen input or touch input. 4 Adjust the display of your Tablet PC to a comfortable angle and find the (+) symbol in the upper-left corner of
the display.
DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE WHEN TAPPING ON THE SCREEN DURING CALIBRATION. USE OF
EXCESSIVE FORCE COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE LED AND/OR TOUCH PANEL.
5 Using 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 location on the screen.
6 Repeat step 5 until you have selected all of the (+) symbols. 7 Once you have selected all the symbols, press the [OK] button. 8 Touch the stylus to various points on the screen to verify that the screen is correctly calibrated. If you are not

Using the Capacitive Touchscreen

DRAFT
This Tablet PC has a dual digitizer that allows you to use either the stylus (as described in “Active Digitizer Display” on page 44) or your finger(s) as a pointing device. This type of display also allows you to use one-, two-. three-, or four-finger “gestures” to perform such actions as scroll, zoom, and rotate.
GESTURE SUPPORT IS DETERMINED BY THE APPLICATION AND OPERATING SYSTEM IN USE.
THE STYLUS TAKES PRECEDENCE OVER FINGER TOUCH. IF THE STYLUS IS WITHIN ACTIVE RANGE OF
THE SCREEN, FINGER TOUCH WILL BE DISABLED.
WHEN ONE FINGER IS USED ON THE TOUCHSCREEN, IT BEHAVES IN THE SAME MANNER AS A STYLUS.

Caring for the Pen

DRAFT
ONLY USE THE PEN PROVIDED WITH YOUR NOTEBOOK. DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTE PEN 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 NOT TO SCRATCH THE SURFACE OF THE DISPLAY (E.G., WITH A
WRISTWATCH OR BRACELET).
T
HE PEN OF YOUR NOTEBOOK IS AN ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENT WHICH CAN BE DAMAGED IF USED INCORRECTLY.
ANDLE THE PEN WITH CARE. THE FOLLOWING LIST CONTAINS GUIDELINES FOR PROPER PEN HANDLING:
H
DO NOT GESTURE WITH THE PEN OR USE IT AS A POINTER.
NEVER USE THE PEN ON ANY OTHER SURFACE THAN THE SCREEN OF YOUR NOTEBOOK.
DO NOT TRY TO TURN THE THUMB GRIP ON THE PEN. THE THUMB GRIP IS USED TO PLACE THE PEN IN ITS SLOT AND
TO TAKE IT OUT OF THE SLOT.
NEVER STORE THE PEN WITH THE TIP BEARING THE WEIGHT OF THE PEN (E.G. WITH THE TIP DOWN IN A PEN
HOLDER). IF THE PEN IS STORED WITH THE TIP POINTING DOWN, THIS MAY HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE PEN MECHANISM (PARTICULARLY UNDER HIGH TEMPERATURES). IN THIS CASE THE PEN TIP MAY REACT AS THOUGH IT IS CONSTANTLY BEING PRESSED DOWN. TO AVOID DAMAGE, THE PEN SHOULD BE STORED IN THE PEN SLOT WHEN NOT IN USE.
THE PEN CAN BE INFLUENCED BY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS (CURSOR QUIVERS OR JUMPS). THERE MAY BE A FEW
AREAS ON THE SCREEN WHERE THE CURSOR QUIVERS SLIGHTLY IN SPITE OF PRESSING THE PEN DOWN FIRMLY.
Changing the Pen Settings
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). T o do so, go to Start > Contro l 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.

Volume Control

DRAFT
Your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has multiple volume controls which interact with each other.

Controlling the Volume

The volume can be controlled in several different ways:
Volume can be changed or muted from within the Volume Control in the system tray.
V o lume can be controlled with the F8 and F9 functions keys. Pressing [F8] repeatedly while holding
[Fn] will decrease the volume of your T ablet PC. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the volume of your Tablet PC.

Boot Sequence

The procedure for starting-up your Tablet PC is termed the Bootup sequence and involves your Tablet PC’ s BIOS. When your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC is first turned on, the main system memory is empty, and it needs to find instructions to start up your T ablet PC. This information is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or restart your T ablet PC, it goes through a boot sequence which displays a Fujitsu logo until your operating system is loaded. During booting, your T ablet 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.
61

Power Management

DRAFT
Your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK 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, pre­bundled 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 T ablet 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 T ablet 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 T ablet PC is fully operational. If the indicator is visible and flashing, the Tablet PC is in Sleep mode. If the indicator is 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.
Your Tablet PC can be put in sleep mode by:
Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume switch when your system is turned on.
67
- Power Management
Selecting “Sleep” after clicking [Start] then clicking the small arrow at the bottom right of the
DRAFT
window.
Timing out from lack of activity.
Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery Warning condition.
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.
IF RUNNING YOUR TABLET PC ON BATTERY POWER, BE AWARE THAT THE BATTERY CONTINUES TO
DISCHARGE WHILE YOUR TABLET PC IS IN SLEEP MODE, THOUGH NOT AS QUICKLY AS WHEN FULLY OPERATIONAL.
DISABLING THE POWER/SUSPEND/RESUME SWITCH PREVENTS IT FROM BEING USED TO PUT THE
TABLET PC INTO SLEEP OR HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) MODE. THE BUTTON RESUME FUNCTION
CANNOT BE DISABLED.
IF YOUR TABLET PC IS ACTIVELY ACCESSING INFORMATION WHEN YOU ENTER THE SLEEP OR
H
IBERNATION MODE, CHANGES TO OPEN FILES ARE NOT LOST. THE FILES ARE LEFT OPEN AND MEMORY IS KEPT ACTIVE DURING SLEEP MODE OR THE MEMORY IS TRANSFERRED TO THE INTERNAL HARD DRIVE DURING HIBERNATION MODE.
THE MAIN ADVANTAGE OF USING HIBERNATION IS THAT POWER IS NOT REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN YOUR
DATA. THIS IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IF YOU WILL BE LEAVING YOUR T ABLET PC IN A SUSPENDED STATE FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME. THE DRAWBACK OF USING HIBERNATION MODE IS THAT IT LENGTHENS THE POWER DOWN AND POWER UP SEQUENCES AND RESETS PERIPHERAL DEVICES.

Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) Feature

DRAFT
The Hibernation feature saves the contents of your T ablet PC’s system memory to the hard drive as a part of the Suspend/Resume mode. You can enable or disable this feature.
Enable or Disable the Hibernation Feature
The default settings are not enabled. To enable or disable the Hibernation feature follow these steps:
1 From the Start menu, select Control Panel, then select the Power Options icon. 2 Select “Choose what the power button does” or “Choose what closing the lid does”, then make your selections
(Do Nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut Down).

Windows Power Management

The Power Options icon located in the Windows Control Panel allows you to configure some of the power management settings. For example, you can use the Power Options to set the timeout values for turning off the display and hard disks whether you are running the Tablet PC on battery power or one of the adapters.

Restarting the System

If your system is on and you need to restart it, be sure that you use the following procedure.
1 Click the [Start] button, and then move the mouse over the small arrow at the bottom right of the right-hand
pane.
2 Select Restart from the list.

Powering Off

DRAFT
Before turning off the power , check that the hard drive/optical drive access indicator is off. If you turn of f the power while accessing a disk there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your Tablet PC shuts down without error, use the Windows shut down procedure.
BE SURE TO CLOSE ALL FILES, EXIT ALL APPLICATIONS, AND SHUT DOWN YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM
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.
Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your Tablet PC to complete its operations and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:
1 Click the [Start] button, and then move the mouse over the small arrow at the bottom right of the right-hand
pane.
2 Select Shut Down from the list.

When going into Sleep mode, the computer also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network links. To “wake” the computer from Sleep mode, press the Suspend/Resume Button.
Energy saving benefits:
Fujitsu ENERGY ST AR 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.

Recharging the Batteries

If you want to know the condition of the primary Lithium ion battery, check the Battery Level indicator located on the Status Indicator panel. The indicator changes as the battery level changes.
The Lithium ion 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 LIFEBOOK Tablet PC and connect the AC or Auto/Airline adapter.
M
AKE SURE THAT THE PERCENTAGE CHARGE IS INDICATED BY THE BATTERY CHARGING INDICATOR ON
THE STATUS INDICATOR PANEL.
There is no memory effect on the Lithium ion 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 T ablet PC into Sleep mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery . (See Power Management on page 67 for mor e
information on Sleep mode and shutdown procedure)

CHARGING COMPLETELY.
Low Battery State
When the battery is running low , a low battery notification message will appear. If you do not respond to the low battery 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.
ONCE THE LOW BATTERY NOTIFICATION MESSAGE APPEARS, YOU NEED TO SAVE ALL YOUR ACTIVE DATA AND
PUT YOUR TABLET PC INTO SLEEP MODE UNTIL YOU CAN PROVIDE A NEW POWER SOURCE. YOU SHOULD PROVIDE A CHARGED BATTERY, AN AC POWER ADAPTER, OR AUTO/AIRLINE ADAPTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
WHEN YOU ARE IN SLEEP MODE THERE MUST ALWAYS BE AT LEAST ONE POWER SOURCE ACTIVE. IF YOU
REMOVE ALL POWER SOURCES WHILE YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC IS IN SLEEP MODE, ANY DATA THAT HAS NOT BEEN SAVED TO THE HARD DRIVE WILL BE LOST.
Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indicator just like the normal Sleep mode. Once your T ablet 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 LIFEBOOK Tablet PC.
