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 op timal, 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 present. The maximum
permitted number of pixels faults is stipulated in the international standard ISO 9241-3 (Class II).
Example:
A screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 has 1280 x 800 = 1024000 pixels. Each pixel consists of
three subpixels (red, green and blue), so thereare about 3 million subpixelsin total. According to ISO
9241-3 (class II), 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.

You can use the pen on your notebook as an electronic writing implement to select
items and to navigate through menu options and programs. Programs that support
handwriting recognition also allow you to write characters directly on the screen with
the pen. Yo u can also use the pen as a drawing tool.
The notebook pen is retained securely in the pen slot. This ensures that the pen cannot be
lost, regardless of whether you use the notebook as a Tablet PC or as a notebook, or transport
it while travelling. Always replace the pen in its slot when you are not using it.
The notebook is supplied with a pen cord which you can attach to the eyelets
on the pen and on the notebook.
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 th e surface of the
display (e.g. with a wristwatch or bracelet).
32Fujitsu
Working with the notebook
The pen of your notebook is an electron ic instrument which can be damaged
if used incorrectly. Handle the pen with care.
The following list contains guidelines for proper pen handling:
•Do not gesture with the pen.
•Do not use the pen 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 o f 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.
Thepencanbeinfluenced 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.
The screen responds to entries made with the tip of the finger or the pen when the tip
of the finger or the pen is in direct contact with the screen.
You can use the pen to perform all the functions for which you would otherwise use a m ouse.
In addition, you can conveniently delete hand-written pen entries using the pen.

Handling data carriers
Handling
Observe the following guidelines when handling data carriers:
•Avoid touching the surface of a data carrier. Only handle data carriers by their edges.
•Always store data carriers in their cases. This will protect the data carrier against
being covered in dust, scratched or damaged in any other way.
•Protect your data carriers against dust, mechanical vibrations and direct sunlight.
•Avoid storing a data carrier in areas subject to high temperatures or humidity.
You may use both 8-cm and 12-cm data carriers in the optical drive.
When using a data carrier of lesser quality, vibrations and reading errors may occur.

If the CD /DVD indicator does not go out after a data carrier has been inserted, but
instead continues to flash, this means that the drive cannot access the data carrier.
Either the data carrier is damaged or dirty or you are using a data
carrier that the drive cannot read.
In the event of a power failure or damage to the drive, you can remove the data carrier manually.
