Replace the first "NOTE" for the following. “OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (page 10)”
NOTE
The power saving mode ([Power Scheme] in [Control Panel] - [Power Management]) is factory set, so if there is no input from a key, the touch pad, the touchscreen or an external mouse (when one is connected) for a certain interval of time, the power to the LCD and hard disk is shut down. The LCD will resume operation when the touch pad or the touchscreen is used, or a key or an external mouse is pressed. The power to the LCD may be turned off while Windows is setting up or even when an application software is being installed. In this case, because it is conceivable that a selection dialog box will be shown, do not press the Enter key to attempt to resume from this condition as doing so may trigger a selection, but instead, press a key unrelated to the direct triggering of a selection, like the key.
*With Windows 98, "Suspend" is called "Standby".

[System Devices] in [Start] - [Settings] - [Control Panel] - [System] - [Device Man­ager] may contain a device or devices bearing an exclamation mark or question mark. This does not indicate a malfunction. Such a mark (exclamation or question mark) will not be displayed if the operating environment of the device showing the mark is corrected, by for instance installing the driver of the device.

The following has been added.
<For CF-37VB6BAEM model only> Connecting to the LAN
This model has an internal LAN port.
CAUTION
Do not insert a telephone line connector (including a PBX internal phone) into the LAN port. Doing so may cause fire or electric shock.
LAN Port
<For CF-37VB6BAEM model only> Wake up from LAN
This is a function to automatically power on the computer from a network server. To use this function, it is necessary to have a network environment that accommodates Wake up from LAN (for a Local Area Network). When using this function, set [Wake up from LAN] to [Enable] with the Setup Utility. ( page 8)
NOTE
Be sure to connect the AC adapter, and enable the supply of power. Make settings to allow the use of a Local Area Network. Be sure to leave the LCD panel open when [Panel Switch] is set to [Suspend] or [Hibernation] in the Setup Utility. When using the Wake up from LAN function, User Password is not necessary even if [User Password] has been set in the Setup Utility. When [Wake up from LAN] in the Setup Utility is set to [Enable], remaining battery power will dissipate in about three days. In particular, note that when the computer is on standby using the suspend function, data in RAM memory may be lost. We recom­mend that when not using the Wake up from LAN function, you should keep the above setting on [Disable]. The Wake up from LAN function will not operate under the following conditions:
- When the computer has been placed in suspend or hibernation from MS-DOS mode.
- When the computer has been shut down by pressing the power switch for more than four seconds.
- When the password has been input incorrectly, and the computer has returned to suspend, hibernation, or power off status.
