The keyboard is equipped with many features. However the outlook of the keyboard may be slightly different from your actual unit. These include:
•Function Keys (A) - function keys are available on the notebook keyboard. These keys work together with the Fn key to activate special functions. Function keys are application-driven. For more information, please refer to the “Function Keys” note.
•Numeric Keypad (B) - pressing Fn+Num Lock on the keyboard activates the numeric keypad numbers and functions printed in blue at the bottom right corner of the keys. The keypad lets you type numbers and mathematical operands (+, -) as you would on a calculator. The keypad is ideal for entering long lists of numbers. When you press Fn+Num Lock again, the keys revert to their normal functions as typewriter keys.
•Control keys (C) - Ctrl, Alt, Fn and Shift are controls used in conjunction with other keys to change their functions. To use control keys, press and hold the control key while pressing another key. For example, "Press Ctrl c" means to hold down the Ctrl key and press the c key. Key combinations are specific to the application you are running.
•Windows® keys (D) - use the following two keys to facilitate your work.
Shortcut/Application key - provides quick access to shortcut menus. (This key acts like a right mouse button.)
Floating Windows® key - displays the Start menu. (The outlook of
Floating Windows® key is depends on the system you purchase.)
•Cursor Control keys (E) - cursor control keys let you position the cursor on the screen where you want. On the screen, the cursor is a blinking underline, block, or vertical bar depending on the application. The cursor indicates where the next typed text will be inserted.

The Power button is a "smart" switch, meaning that it recognises when the notebook is on Standby mode. If in Standby mode, you cannot power off until you press the Power button to resume operation.
Use the Power button in the following ways:
•Press the Power button to power on.
•Press the Power button to move from Standby mode and to proceed with normal operations.
•Press and hold the Power button in place for 4 or more seconds to initiate power override (powers off the system). Only use this option if you cannot power off your system using the normal procedure described in the “Tips” section relevant to your operating system.
Put the unit in Standby mode when you need to be away from your notebook for a short period of time and want to return to where you left off. Standby mode shuts down all devices in the notebook while retaining data and notebook status.
Check the “Managing System Power” section relevant to your operating system for more information on the power management states.
For more information on accessories, please refer to or contact to the local sales representative near you.

The touchpad is an easy way to control the cursor with your finger. Lightly glide your finger across the touchpad and the cursor follows.
To use the touchpad, you can:
•Single tap the touchpad, or single click on the left button, equivalent to a single click of the primary mouse button.
•Double tap the touchpad, or double click on the left button, equivalent to a double click of the primary mouse button.
•Click and hold, then drag your finger across the touchpad, equivalent to a click and drag of the primary mouse button.
Note
The illustrations, colours and pictures shown are for illustration purposes. They may vary slightly from country to country and the unit you purchase. Please refer to the finished product for final configurations. Specifications and model names are subject to change without notice.
If you find the double tap difficult to use, go to the next section for general directions about adjusting the touchpad properties.
Note
If you install another mouse driver over the shipping default, the double-tap capability may be lost.
Follow these basic ergonomic tips while working:
•Use a light touch on the touchpad surface.
•Set up the notebook with your keyboard and touchpad at a comfortable height. Keep your forearms parallel to the floor. Your wrists should be relaxed and straight.
•While using the keyboard and touchpad, keep your shoulders and arms as relaxed as possible.
•Take regular breaks from the computer to rest your eyes. Perform stretching exercises to relax your fingers, hands, wrists, forearms and shoulders.

The notebook can be powered using three different sources, making it a truly portable system. Operate your notebook just about anywhere using one of the following power sources:
•the AC adapter connected to an electrical wall outlet (using AC power),
•the battery pack (Refer to Using the Battery section for details)
•the optional Auto adapter. (Refer to Optional Accessories section for details)
Read the following sections for specific information about using the power sources.
Use the AC adapter and power cable that come with your notebook to run your computer on alternating current (AC) power, or to recharge the battery pack. Use the AC adapter whenever a wall outlet is nearby.
Keep the adapter connected whenever possible. The AC adapter charges the battery when it is connected, whether the notebook is powered on or off.
*
*The power cable may vary from country to country.
Note
Consult your dealer or the local electrical authorities if you are unsure of the type of power cord to use in your country. Failure to use the correct power cord/cable may result in electrical shock.
WARNING
Do not attempt to disassemble the AC adapter. The AC adapter has no user-replaceable or serviceable parts inside. Dangerous voltage in the AC adapter can cause serious personal injury or death. The AC adapter is intended for use with a computer and must meet EN609050 standards.
