Important notes
Additional safety precautions for devices with wireless LAN/ Bluetooth
If a radio component (Wireless LAN or Bluetooth) is integrated in your notebook, you must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:
The transmitted radio waves can cause an unpleasant humming in hearing aids.
Switch off the radio component (the ON/OFF switch must be in the "OFF" position) when you
are at an airport or driving in a car.
Switch off the radio component (the ON/OFF switch must be in the "OFF" position) when you are in a hospital, an operating room or near a medical electronics system. The transmitted radio waves can impair the operation of the medical devices.
Keep the notebook at least 20 cm from a pacemaker, as otherwise the proper operation of the pacemaker may be impaired by radio waves.
Switch off the radio component (the ON/OFF switch must be in the "OFF" position), 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.
With data traffic via a wireless connection, it is also possible for unauthorised third parties to receive data.
The company Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH cannot be held responsible for radio or television faults arising from unauthorised changes made to this device. Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH is, furthermore, not responsible for replacing and / or exchanging connector cables and devices which have not been specified by Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH.

Important notes
Travelling with your notebook
Please follow these guidelines when travelling with your notebook.
Before you travel
Back up important data stored on your hard disk.
Switch off the radio component (Wireless LAN/ Bluetooth) for security reasons when youn
cannot exclude that the transmitted radio waves can negatively affect electrical and electronic devices in your surrounding area.
If you wish to use your notebook during a flight, first check with the flight attendants if it is OK to do so.
If you are travelling abroad, check that the mains adapter can be operated with the local mains voltage. If this is not the case, obtain the appropriate mains adapter for your notebook. Do not use any other voltage converter!
Make sure that the rated current of the mains adapter is not higher than that of the power system to which you connect the mains adapter (see technical data of the mains adapter).
When travelling in other countries
Check whether the local power supply and the specifications of the power cable are compatible. If this is not the case, buy a power cable that matches the local conditions. Do not use a connection adapter for electrical devices to connect the notebook.
Enquire with the corresponding government office of the country you will be travelling in as to whether you may operate the radio component integrated in your notebook there (also see "Manufacturer’s notes").
If you use the modem, incompatibilities with the local telecommunications system may result. This may result in poor performance, or the modem will not work at all. You may require a country-specific telephone adapter (available as an accessory).
Transporting the notebook
Remove all data carriers (e.g. CD) from the drives.
Switch off the notebook with the Suspend/Resume button (see "Switching off the notebook").
Unplug the mains adapter and all external devices from the mains outlet.
Disconnect the mains adapter cable and the data cables for all external devices.
Close the connector covers.
Close the LCD screen so that it locks into place.
If the device needs to be shipped, use the original packaging or other suitable packaging to
protect it from damage caused by mishandling.

LCD screen
Information on LCD monitor
High-quality TFT displays with especially bright background lighting are installed in notebooks from Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH. For technical reasons, TFT monitors are manufactured for a specific resolution. An optimal, clear picture can only be ensured in the resolution intended for the respective TFT monitor. A monitor resolution which differs from the specification can result in an unclear picture.
The monitor resolution is understood to be the number of horizontal and vertical pixels (i.e. picture elements) which make up the monitor display. For example, "UXGA" stands for 1600 x 1200 pixels. Each pixel consists of three so-called subpixels of the colours red, green and blue. As a result, a UXGA monitor consists of 1600 x 1200 x 3 = 5.760.000 subpixels.
Frequently used monitor resolutions Number of pixels
XGA 1024 x 768
WXGA 1280 x 800
SXGA 1280 x 1024
SXGA+ 1400 x 1050
UXGA 1600 x 1200
The correct monitor resolution for your notebook is specified in the corresponding section in the chapter "Technical data".
Permanently unlit or lit pixels
The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number of pixels faults is stipulated in the stringent international standard ISO 13406-2 (Class II).
Example:
A 15" LCD screen monitor with a resolution of 1024 x 768 has 1024 x 768 = 786432 pixels. Each pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 2,4 million subpixels in total. According to ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum of 4 pixels and 5 subpixels may be defective, i. e. a total of 17 faulted subpixels. That is approx. 0.0007 % of the entire subpixel!
Background lighting
TFT screens are operated with background lighting. The luminosity of the background lighting can decrease during the period of use of the notebook. However, you can set the brightness of your monitor individually.

You can change the screen resolution under Start - (Settings) - Control Panel - Display - Settings.
Setting font size (under Windows)
Under Start - (Settings) - Control Panel - Display - Settings you can choose between a larger and a smaller font in the Font size field.
Setting the display brightness
You can adjust the brightness of your LCD screen with the keys Fn and F6 or F7 : With Fn and F6 , screen brightness will be reduced and with Fn and F7 increased.
Synchronising the display on the LCD screen and an external monitor
Your notebook supports the simultaneous display on the LCD screen and an external monitor. If the picture does not appear correctly on the external monitor, press the key combination Fn + F10 several times, or switch the external monitor off and then on again. This achieves good picture synchronisation.
Adjusting the speed of the mouse pointer
You can change the speed of the mouse pointer under Start - (Settings) - Control Panel - Mouse and clicking on the Motion tab.

Battery
The battery supplies your notebook with the necessary power during mobile use. You can increase battery life by enabling the system's power management features.
The battery charge is indicated by the battery symbol in the status indicator panel (see also "Indicators"). When you switch on the notebook, it takes a few seconds before the battery status is displayed.
The life of the battery is dependent on its proper storage, the number of charging/discharging cycles and the operating temperature of the notebook.
Charging, caring for and maintaining the battery
Only use batteries approved by Fujitsu Siemens Computers for your notebook.
!
Take care not to drop the batteries or otherwise damage their casing (fire risk).
If the rechargeable batteries develop a fault please stop using them immediately.
Do not touch the contacts of the batteries.
Never interconnect the positive and negative terminals of a battery.
Batteries are harmful to the environment. You should dispose of them following guidance from your local District Council.
Information on the battery charging time is contained in the "Technical data" chapter.
You can charge the battery by connecting the notebook to the mains adapter. Make sure that the ambient temperature of the notebook lies within the permissible range.
You can maintain long life from your battery by allowing it to discharge fully before you recharge it again. To do this, leave your notebook turned on when it is operated with the battery. Once the battery is running low you will hear a warning alarm. If you do not connect the mains adapter within five minutes of the warning alarm described above, your notebook will automatically switch off.
Storing the battery
Keep the battery pack between 0°C and +30°C (32 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit). The lower the temperature at which the batteries are stored, the lower is the rate of self-discharge.
If you store rechargeable batteries for a longer period (longer than two months), the battery charge level should be approx. 30%. To prevent exhaustive discharge, check the charging level of the battery at regular intervals.
If you do not use the batteries for long periods, remove them from the notebook. Never
