Cautions on Preventing Data Loss (Hard Disk Management)
LCD Bad Pixels
The limits of LCD
manufacturing
technology permit a
maximum of 4 abnormal
or bad pixels, which
does not affect the
system performance.
This system may have
the same level of
abnormal or bad pixels
as any other company’s
products.
Cleaning the LCD
When cleaning the
LCD panel, use only
computer specific
cleaners with a soft
cloth, and lightly wipe in
one direction.
Pressing down hard may
damage the LCD.
To prevent data loss due to damage to the hard disk
drive, please backup your data frequently.
Take care not to damage
the data on a hard disk
drive.
■ A hard disk drive is so
sensitive to external
impact that an external
impact may cause loss of
data on the surface of the
disk.
■ Take extra care, because
moving the computer
or an impact on the
computer when it is
turned on may damage
the data of the hard disk
drive.
■ The company is not
liable for the loss of
any data caused by
customer such as the
carelessness usage
or bad environmental
condition.
Causes that may damage
the data of a hard disk
drive and the hard disk
drive itself.
■ The data may be lost
when an external impact
is applied to the disk
while disassembling
or assembling the
computer.
■ The data may be lost
when the computer is
turned off or reset by
a power failure while
the hard disk drive is
operating.
■ The data may be lost and
irrecoverable due to a
computer virus infection.
■ The data may be lost if
the power is turned off
while running a program.
■ Moving or causing an
impact to the computer
while the hard disk drive
is operating, may cause
files to be corrupted or
bad sectors on the hard
disk.
17
Proper Posture During Computer Use
Maintaining a proper posture during computer use is very important to prevent physical harm.
The following instructions are about maintaining a proper posture during computer use
developed through human engineering. Please read and follow them carefully when using the
computer.
Otherwise, the probability of (RSI: Repetitive Strain Injury) from repeated operations may
increase and serious physical harm may be caused.
The instructions in this manual have been prepared so that they can be applied
within the coverage of general users. If the user is not included in the coverage, the
recommendation is to be applied according to the user’s needs.
Since this is commonly applied to Samsung Computers, some figures may differ
from actual ones.

■ Do not use the computer on your lap or
close to your skin for a long time.
There is a danger of burns due to the high
temperature of the computer.
■ To use the computer while talking over
the telephone, use the ear-microphone
phone.
When using the computer while holding a
phone over your shoulder and talking on
the phone, your posture becomes bad.
■ Keep frequently used work items within an
easy working range (where you can reach
them with your hands easily).

Regulatory Compliance Statements
Wireless Guidance
Low power, Radio LAN type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication devices),
operating in the 2.4 GHz Band, may be present (embedded) in your notebook system. The
following section is a general overview of considerations while operating a wireless device.
Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for specific countries are listed in the specific
country sections (or country group sections). The wireless devices in your system are only
qualified for use in the countries identified by the Radio Approval Marks on the system rating
label. If the country you will be using the wireless device in, is not listed, please contact your
local Radio Approval agency for requirements. Wireless devices are closely regulated and
use may not be allowed.
The RF field strength of the wireless device or devices that may be embedded in your
notebook are well below all international RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because
the wireless devices (which may be embedded into your notebook) emit less energy than is
allowed in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, manufacturer believes
these devices are safe for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to
minimize human contact during normal operation.
This transmitter must not be collocated or operate in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter except the installed Bluetooth transmitter.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of common
restrictions are listed below:
24
■ Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment on
commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless devices to be
turned off while traveling in an airplane.
802.11B (also known as wireless Ethernet or Wifi) and Bluetooth communication
devices are examples of devices that provide wireless communication.
■ In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or services is
harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless device may be
restricted or eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen or flammable gas
laden atmospheres are limited examples where use of wireless devices may be
restricted or eliminated. When in environments where you are uncertain of the
sanction to use wireless devices, ask the applicable authority for authorization
prior to use or turning on the wireless device.
■ Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless devices. Since your
system is equipped with a wireless device, when traveling between countries with
your system, check with the local Radio Approval authorities prior to any move or
trip for any restrictions on the use of a wireless device in the destination country.
■ If your system came equipped with an internal embedded wireless device, do not
operate the wireless device unless all covers and shields are in place and the
system is fully assembled.
■ Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any way.
Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use it. Please
contact manufacturer for service.
■ Only use drivers approved for the country in which the device will be used. See

FCC Part 68
(If fitted with a modem device.)
to determine the maximum REN for the calling
area.
If the terminal equipment causes harm to the
telephone network, the Telephone Company
will notify you in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required. But
if advance notice is not practical, the telephone
company will notify the customer as soon as
possible. Also, you will be advised of your right
to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it

compliant. See Installation Instructions for
details.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of
devices which may be connected to telephone
line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may
result in the devices not ringing in response to
an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the
sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To
be certain of the number of devices that may
be connected to a line, as determined by total
RENs, contact the local telephone company
