Working with the notebook
LCD screen
LCDscreenNotes
High-quality LCD screens (TFT) are installed in Fujitsu notebooks. For technical reasons,
these screens are manufactured for a specific resolution. An optimal, clear picture can
only be ensured in the resolution intended for the particular screen. A screen resolution
which differs from the specification can result in an unclear pictu re.
The resolution of the screen of your notebook is optimally set at the factory.
Current production technology cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A few
isolated constantly lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number of such
faulty pixels is specified in the international standard ISO 9241-307 (class 2).
Example:
A screen with a resolution of 1280 x 80 0 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
9241-307 (class 2), 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.
At a resolution of 1600 x 900 = 1440000 pixels, a maximum of 3 light and 3 dark pixels
and in addition 7 light or 14 dark subpixels are allowed to be defective.

Calibrating the stylus
If Windows 8.1 is installed on your Tablet PC, your Tablet PC is already calibrated at initial setup.
If a different operating system is installed on your Tablet PC, you must calibrate it with the
stylus before first use, so that it recognizes the stylus as accurately as possible.
You should also always repeat the calibration if the co-ordination between the
stylus and the cursor movement deteriorate s.

To calibrate, run the Hardware and Sound / Tablet PC Settings function in the
Control Panel. You need to calibrate both portrait and landscape fo rmats.
Replacing the stylus tip
With use, the stylus tip may become worn or may pick up foreign particles that can scratch the screen.
A damaged or worn tip may not move freely, causing unpredictable results when using the stylus.
If your stylus exhibits these problems, you should replace the stylus tip. To
do this, use the supplied tool (1).
► To remove the tip, position it in the gap
between the two ends of the tool supplied.
► Pinch the two ends of the supplied tool
together so that the tip is firmly clasped,
then pull it from the barrel.
► Replace the tip with one of the new tips
that were supplied with your stylus. Insert
the flat end of the tip into the barrel
and exerting gentle pressure, push it
in until it is firmly in place.

The notebook battery can only be charged if the ambient temperature is between

If the battery is running low you will hear a warning alarm. If you do not connect the AC adapter
within five minutes o f the warning alarm described above, your notebook will automatically switch off.
Monitoring the battery state of charge
er
Batterybatterychargemet
Windows also has a "Battery charge meter" in the taskbar for monitoring the
battery capacity. When you place the mouse pointer on the battery symbol, the
system displays the state of charge of the battery.
The battery should be stored in a dry environment at a temperature between 0°C / 32°F and
30°C / 86°F. The lower the storage temperature, the lower the rate of self-discharge.
If you will be storing batteries for a longer period (more 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 optimum capacity of the battery, you should allow
the battery to fully discharge and then recharge it.
If you will not use batteries for long periods, remove them from the
notebook. Never store batteries in the device.

Preparing to remove components
If you are going to remove or change system components, prepare for the removal as follows:
Please observe the safety information in chapter "Important notes", Page 13.
Remove the AC plug from the power outlet!
► Switch the device off.
The device must not be in energy saving mode.
► Close the LCD screen.
► Remove all the cables
from the device.
► Turn the de vice over and place it on a stable, flat and clean surface. If necessary, lay an
anti-slip cloth on this surface to prevent th e device from being scratched.
If you are asked by the Hotline/Service Desk to remove or install a memory
expansion module yourself, proceed as follows:
Please observe the safety information in chapter "Important no tes", Page 13.
During installation/removal of m emory modules, the battery must remain
removed from the notebook and the notebook must not be connected to the
AC adapter, see "
Preparing to remove components", Page 85.
Only use memory modules that have been approved for use in your
notebook (see chapter "
Technical data", Page 104).
Never use force when installing or removing a memory module.
Make sure that no foreign objects fall into the memory upgrade compartment.
You must open the memory upgrade compartment to remove or install a memory
module. On some devices, it is possible that opening the compartment exposes various
components. Only authorized specialists are permitted to remove or c hang e these
components. 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 the notebook off before removing
or installing memory modules. Otherwise, there is a risk of suffering burns!
As some components are exposed that are sensitive to st atic electricity, please take
note of chapter "
