Travelling with your notebook

MobileoperationTransport

Please follow these guidelines when travelling with your notebook.

Before you travel

Travelpreparations

• Back up important data stored on your hard disk.

• Switch off the radio component (Wireless LAN/Bluetooth/UMTS) for data security reasons. Data
traffic on a wireless connection can be intercepted by unauthorised third parties.

Information on activating data encryption is provided in the documentation
for your wireless component.

• If you wish to use your notebook during a flight, first check with the flight
attendants if it is OK to do so.

When travelling in other coun tries

• If you are tra velling 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!

• Check whether the local voltage and the speci fications 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 co untry you will be
travelling in as to whether you may operate the radio component integrated in
your notebook there (also see "

CE marking", Page 60).

• If you use a 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).

LCD screen

Information on LCD screen

LCDscreen:Notes:

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 particular 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.

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 strict international standard ISO 13406-2 (Class II).

Example:

A 15" LCD screen m onitor with a resolution of 1024 x 768 has 1024 x 768 = 786432 pixels. Each
pixel consists of thre e subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 2.4 m illion 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 defective subpixels. That is approx. 0.0007 % of the entire set of subpixels!

Pixel

A pixel consists of 3 subpixels, normally red, green and blue. A pixel is
the smallest element that can be generated by complete functionality
of the display.

Subpixel

A subpixel is a separately a ddressable internal structure within a pixel
that enhances the pixel function.

Cluster (= group of faults)A cluster contains two or

more defective pixels or subpixels in a 5 x 5

pixel block.

Battery storing

Self-discharge,batteryBattery:Chargingcapac ity,batteryBattery:

Keep the battery pack between 0 °C and +30 °C (32 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit). The lower
the tempera ture at which the batteries are stored, the lower 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 batteries at regular intervals.

If you do not use batteries for long periods, remove them from the notebook.

Never store batteries in the unit.

Monitoring the battery charging level

even when the SmartCard is lost. The SICRYPT SmartCard, that is included
in the "Mobile Secure IT Suite", is locked after an incorrect PIN is input
three times, to ensure maximum security for you.

The first time you use your SmartCard you must enter the preset PIN provided
by the SmartCard manufacturer or your system administrator.

Inserting the SmartCard

Do not use force when inserti

ng and removing the SmartCard.

Make sure that foreign objec

ts do not fall into the SmartCard reader.

► Slide the SmartCard into the SmartCard

reader with the chip facing upwards and to
the front.

When the SmartCard is properly inserted, it
protrudes by approximately 1.5 cm.

Application examples
SmartCard as device protection

After you insert the SmartCard, you are prompted in the logon screen to enter your PIN. Upon
correct entry the SmartCard is checked and the operating system is b ooted.

The SmartCard remains in the SmartCard rea der during the entire work session.

Security functions

In the SmartCase Logon+ software, you can specify how the user is

to log on to the operating system:

• only with S martCard and PIN

• either with SmartCard and PIN or with password entry

To install, configure and u se SmartCase Logon+, please see the documentation
andonlinehelpontheCDfortheSmartCase Logon+ software.

SmartCard as system protection

(SystemLock)

With SystemLock, the notebo ok ca

n only be started with an initialized SmartCard (SICRYPT,

CardOS or Fujitsu) and personal

identification (PIN). SmartCard and PIN are already

checked during system booting i

n the BIOS Setup, i.e. before the operating system is

booted. To use SystemLock, the f

ollowing conditions must be met:

• You must configure a SmartCard re

ader.

• You must install SystemLock on your notebook.

• You must initialize a SmartCard

.

SmartCard for protecting your opened documents

In conjunction with software such as SmartCase Logon+ (accessory), the SmartCard allows

you to interrupt your work. So you can leave your notebook unattend ed without unauthorised
persons being able to access your opened documents and data.

► Pull the SmartCard out of the notebook during your work session.

A window appears stating that the system is locked.

► When you want to continue your work, insert th e SmartCard and enter your PIN.

You return to your opened documents.

Security functions

Trusted Platform Module (optional)

This module only has to be installed with Windows XP. TPM is already
integrated with Windows Vista.

TPMTrustedPlatformModule

To use the TPM, you must activat

etheTPMintheBIOS Setup before the software is

installed. The condition for t

his is that you have assigned at least the supe rvisor password

(see "

Setting the supervisor a

nd user password", Page 32).

► Call up the BIOS Setup and selec

ttheSecurity menu.

► For Embedded Security Chip , select the entry Enabled to activate the TPM.



Once you have activated the TPM t

he Clear Security Chip option appears.

Youcanusethismenuitemtodel

ete the holder in the TPM. However, you can th en

no lon ger access the data you

have encrypted on the holder-based keys.

On the supplied TPM software CD/DVD you will find software that, in conjunction with
the TPM, enhances the security of your system. Information on using the TPM and the
related software is provided on the TPM software CD/DVD.

If you use TPM and the software on the TPM software CD/DVD, we strongly
recommend that you use the emergency restoration function and create a medium
(e.g. floppy disk, network drive) for restoration in emergencies.

The emergency restore medium is the only way to access your encrypted data
if a security key is lost due to hardware faults for example.

When the TPM is activated, it initially takes control of the notebook during each start-up to check all

hardware components and the BIOS Setup for trustworthiness. In the further course of operation,

the TPM checks the operating system, certain drivers and a pplications. Should a co mponent not
haveavalidcertificate, the TPM refuses this component access to protected content.

For example, with th e TPM activated, data can be generated which can only be read or run on this
device. Support for security protocols, such as SSL (Secure Socket Layer) for Internet connections,
IPSec (LAN encryption), S-MIME (e-mail encryption, WLAN encryption and others) is also possible.

line and still have all of those devices ring when your number is called. Too many devices
on one line may result in failure to ring in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all,
areas the sum of the RENs of all of the devices should not exceed five (5). To be certain
of th e number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the RENs, contact
your local telephone company. If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, your
telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you
in advance. If advance notice is not practical they will notify you as soon as possible. You
