Important Safety Information
Wireless LAN (wireless network - abbreviation = WLAN)
Your notebook may contain a Wireless LAN module (optional). This module allows you to set up a wireless-based network, and to connect with an existing wireless network. It works according to the IEEE802.11a+b+g standard.
WLAN technology allows users to set up wireless connections inside a local area (e.g. in a company or campus building, or in a public building such as an airport). WLANs can be used in temporary offices, in locations where it is not possible to set up extensive cable installations, or to extend an existing LAN so that users in different parts of a building can work at different times.
There are two different ways to operate a WLAN. In fixed WLANs, wireless stations (devices with radio network cards or external modems) set up connections with wireless access points, which act as bridges between the stations and the existing network backbone. In Peer-to-Peer (ad hoc) WLANs several users can set up a temporary network within a limited area such as a conference room, without using access points, and providing there is no need to use network resources.
In 1997 the IEEE confirmed the standard 802.11 for WLANs; this set a data transfer rate of 1 to 2 Mbit/s (Megabits per second). Under 802.11a+b+g, the new governing standard, the maximum data transfer rate is 54 Mbit/s over a frequency band of 2.4 or 5 GHz (Giga hertz).

Additional safety notes for units with wireless LAN
A wireless LAN component is integrated into your Notebook. For this reason you must make sure that you comply with the following notes on safety:
• Switch off the Notebook when you are in an aircraft or while driving a car.
• If you are in a hospital, an operating room or close to an electronic medical system, switch off the wireless compo nents in the Notebook! The radio waves which are transmit­ted could disrupt the working of the medical equipment.
• Keep the Notebook at least 20 cm away from a heart pace maker, otherwise there is a risk that the radio waves could disrupt the normal working of the pacemaker.
• The radio waves which are transmitted could give rise to interference noise in hearing aids.
• When its radio components are switched on, do not place the Notebook close to inflammable gases or in an environ ment which could be at risk of explosion (e.g. paint shop), since the radio waves which are transmitted could set of a fire or an explosion.
• The range of the wireless connection depends on the envi ronmental and other ambient conditions.
• When transferring data over a wireless connection, unau thorized Third Parties can also receive the data.

Important Safety Information
Radio frequencies for units with wireless LAN
The following information was correct at January 2002. You can obtain current information from the appropriate authorities in your country (e.g. www.regtp.de).
FREQUENCIES
Radio network cards and adapters are designed in accordance with IEEE-Standard
802.11b+g for use in the ISM frequency band (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) between 2.4 and 2.4835 GHz. Because of the DSSS-procedure (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum), each of the 11 usable radio channels takes up a width of 22 MHz; this means that up to three, independent channels are available (e.g. 3, 8 and 11). The following table lists the authorised channels in your country:
Channel MHz Europe, R&TTE France, R&TTE
1 2412 X
2 2417 X

Switching the notebook on
You’ve now completed the preparations. Now press the on/off button to switch on the notebook.
Tip: If you experience a program or system crash, press the keys: Ctrl + Alt + Del at the same time. If you’re fortunate this will enable you to end only the task that has crashed and/or restart the computer (warm start). If this does not work, hold down the on/off button for more than four seconds – this will switch off the computer. You can now start up the computer as normal (cold start).
Please note that with Microsoft
®
Windows
®
operating systems you should always switch off the computer as follows:
Click the Start button.
Select Shut Down.
Click OK.
This avoids any prob
­lems with the hard disk and operating system.
Once the computer is switched on, the on/off button can per­form several functions depending on the energy settings. In the standard setting, pressing the on/off button again will switch off the computer.
Fig. 5
The operating system is installed the first time you switch on the computer. Please follow the operating system’s installa­tion instructions here. After installation and restarting, the computer is ready to use. The basic graphics functions allow you to modify the resolu­tion, the color depth and the desktop appearance.
You can find more detailed information on this point in the installation instructions.

Preparation
Power Management
Your system is compatible with the ACPI power saving system. The basic power management settings can be found under the following in Windows ope rating systems: <Settings> <Power Options>. If you have questions, use the Windows Help function.
Here you can set the behavior separately for various battery charge levels.
Standby: – low
The display is dimmed and the hard disk remains unchanged. The power LED flashes. By pressing the on/off button, the computer returns to the normal operating state. The user must log on again.
Sleep: – without power adapter no energy consumption –
The current operating state is saved to the hard disk; the computer is switched off. All open documents or applications become available again when the computer is switched on.
Switching off the notebook and disconnecting it from the power supply (pulling the plug of the power adapter) can prevent any energy consumption.
• Note on PC cards:
energy consumption –
Never remove a PC card while the system is in save-to­disk mode. This would deactivate the slot and problems could arise from a modified system configuration the next time you start up the computer.

System Overview
The Data/Fax Modem
The system automatically sets up the integrated analog modem. To use the modem func­tions, connect the modem socket to an analog telephone socket (not ISDN) using the telephone cable. Proper use: The modem can be connected to all analog sockets in Europe. It is to be used solely for data communication purposes.
Do not attempt to connect the modem to an ISDN telephone socket! This would re
­sult in serious damage to the device.
Fig. 18
The LAN Port
The built-in network adapter enables your computer to connect to the Internet via a 10/100/1000 Mbps network or DSL. The connection is made via an Ethernet network cable and RJ-45 connectors. These are inserted on the back of the computer and into an available network hub or DSL socket.
UK
Under no circumstanc­es should you con­fuse a network cable RJ-45 connector with an ISDN connector! NEVER attempt to con nect the LAN adapter to an ISDN telephone socket! This would result in serious damage to the device.

Installation Instructions
Restoring the Drivers
Your system is supplied in a preloaded condition. This means that all the data and drivers that the system requires are already on the hard disk. In case you erase and/or format your hard disk drive, the system drivers are stored on the Utility CD supplied with the computer. After reinstalling the operating system (for example, with the Recovery CD), this allows you to restore your notebook to a usable condition.
The Utility CD
The Utility CD will run automatically after you place it in the drive. If this is not the case, you can run the CD as follows: select <My Computer”> <CD Drive> and then the “utility. exe” file. You can select the driver that you want to install in the “Drivers” section. Recommended: Install all listed drivers from top to bottom. In addition, you can later install the advanced functions you require in the “Utility” sec­tion. When using the Utility CD, please follow the menu instructions.
Setting the Resolution
After installation of the graphics driver, you can set the resolution to the desired size (e.g. 1024 × 768). You do this in the following way: Right-click on any free area of the desktop. Select <Properties>. In the Display Properties window, click the Settings tab. Here you can set the slider to a resolution you find comfortable. Click <Apply> to set the resolution.
