About the Product Capacity Representation Standard
About HDD Capacity Representation
The capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the manufacturer is calculated assuming that
1KB=1,000 Bytes.
However, the operating system (Windows) calculates the storage device capacity assuming that
1KB=1,024 Bytes, and therefore the capacity representation of the HDD in Windows is smaller than
the actual capacity due to the difference in capacity calculation.
(E.g. For a 80GB HDD, Windows represents the capacity as 74.5GB, 80x1,000x1,000x1,000
byte/(1,024x1,024x1,024)byte = 74.505GB)
In addition, the capacity representation in Windows may be even smaller because some programs
such as Recovery Solution may reside in a hidden area of the HDD.
About Memory Capacity Representation
The memory capacity reported in Windows is less than the actual capacity of memory.
This is because BIOS or a video adapter uses a portion of memory or claims it for further use.
(E.g. For 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, Windows may report the capacity as 1,022MB or less)

Cautions on Preventing Data Loss
(Hard Disk Management)
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 any loss of any data caused
by a customer’s careless usage or bad environmental
conditions.
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 les to be corrupted or
bad sectors on the hard disk.
To prevent data loss due to damage to the hard disk drive,
please backup your data frequently.

Laser Products” under a US Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation
Performance Standard. Should the unit ever
need servicing, contact an authorized service
location.
Laser Safety Note:
Use of controls or adjustments
or performance of procedures
other than those specied
in this manual may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
To prevent exposure to laser
beams, do not try to open the
enclosure of a CD or DVD drive.

Do not unplug the power cord out by pulling
the cable only.
Power Cord Requirements
The power cord set (wall plug, cable and AC
adapter plug) you received with your computer
meets the requirements for use in the country
where you purchased your equipment.
Power cord sets for use in other countries must

Wireless Guidance
(If tted with 2.4G band or 5G band)
Low power, Radio LAN type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication devices),
operating in the 2.4GHz/ 5GHz 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 specic countries are listed in the specic country
sections (or country group sections). The wireless devices in your system are only qualied for use
in the countries identied 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 eld 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.
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless device and the
body, for use of a wireless device near the body (this does not include extremities) is typical. This
device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from the body when wireless devices are on and
transmitting.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of common restrictions are
listed on the next page:
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.
802.11ABGN (also known as wireless Ethernet or Wi-Fi) 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 ammable 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. Modication
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 the
manufacturer System Restoration Kit, or contact manufacturer Technical Support for
additional information.
