powders). Sparks could cause an explosion or ire.

■

Obey the corresponding signs and warnings in these areas and strictly observe
all instructions contained on them.

CAUTION

Risk of fire or explosion when using non-approved chargers and power
adapters

■

Only use the included power adapter or an equivalent power adapter to
charge the battery.

■

23. Troubleshooting/FAQ

In the following, you will ind a list of frequently asked questions along with the
appropriate answers and proposed solutions.

When I attempt to start a video recording, I get an error message and
recording does not start. What can I do?

Please irst install all available updates on your MiniPC (see the question FAQ
"How can I install Windows Updates on my MiniPC?"). If you continue to receive
an error message despite installing the updates, please contact customer
service.

Why does my MiniPC show less storage space than indicated on the
packaging?

The storage capacity indicated on the packaging and in the technical
speciications refers to the total storage capacity of your MiniPC. However, a
portion of the total storage is also used by the operating system and system
applications.

Why am I getting no sound from my MiniPC?

You may have connected headphones to your MiniPC. When headphones are
connected, the speakers of the MiniPC are automatically disabled. Disconnect the
headphones from the MiniPC in order to activate the speakers again. If there is still no
sound from the speakers, check whether the sound on the MiniPC is switched on and
whether the volume is set high enough.

How can I install Windows Updates on my MiniPC?

Your MiniPC checks for new updates daily (an Internet connection must be
available) and displays an appropriate message in the Action Center when new
updates are available. To ensure your MiniPC is always up-to-date, it is therefore
extremely important to connect the MiniPC regularly to the Internet
(see Section 15). If you selected the "Express settings" option in the start
assistant when you switched on for the irst time, the MiniPC automatically
performs available updates when you shutdown (download and installation).
You can change this setting at a later point in time. To do this, call up the
settings (see Section 14) and select the method used to install updates under
"Update & security" →"Windows Update" → "Advanced options"

What can I do if the internal storage of my MiniPC is full or almost full?

To relieve the pressure on the internal storage of your MiniPC and free up storage
space, you can transfer media iles stored on the MiniPC (for example, images,
videos or text iles) to an external storage device (for example, a USB stick or
suitable memory card) or you can delete apps that you no longer require.

24. Glossary

Apps/Applications

An app (abbreviation of the word "application") or application is a program
that you can download from the Windows Store, for example, and install on
your MiniPC. Games, programs for playing back images and music iles, word
processing programs and a lot more are available.

Audio Out/Mic In

This description of the audio port on your MiniPC indicates that you can connect
simple headphones or earphones (audio signal out) to the port as well as a
headset with microphone (audio/microphone signal in).

Bluetooth®

Bluetooth is a standardised wireless interface on your MiniPC that enables a
wireless exchange of data between your MiniPC and other suitable peripheral
devices.

HDMI®

HDMI stands for "High Deinition Multimedia Interface" and is a cable-based
interface for digital image and sound transmission to connected HDMI-ready
peripheral devices. Using a suitable HDMI cable, you can, for example, play the
videos stored on your MiniPC on an HDMI-ready television without having to
irst save the videos on your television.

Microsoft account

"Microsoft account" is the new name for the previous "Windows Live ID". Your
Microsoft account consists of an e-mail address and a password that you
need to sign into services such as Outlook.com, OneDrive, Windows Phone
or Xbox Live. If you use an e-mail address and password to sign into these or
other services, this means that you already have a Microsoft account. You can,
however, register for a new account at any time.

Scrolling

Scrolling refers to the act of moving the screen contents either horizontally or
vertically. You can scroll by using the scroll bar or by using the scroll wheel on the
mouse.

Task bar

The task bar is the horizontal bar found at the bottom of your MiniPC. Unlike
your desktop, which can be covered by opened windows, the task bar is almost
always visible. The task bar therefore provides you with constant access to the
important functions and settings of your MiniPC plus an overview of all the

windows you have open.

26

USB

USB stands for "Universal Serial Bus" and is the name of a cable-based interface
on your MiniPC. It is used to connect peripheral devices and exchange data
between your MiniPC and external devices such as a USB stick.

Windows Store

The Windows Store is an online store offered by Microsoft with lots of
useful and interesting apps that you can download to your MiniPC. See the
"Downloading applications from the Windows Store" section for information on
how to download apps from the Windows Store. Please note that you need to
pay for some apps (paid apps are clearly labelled as such in the Windows Store).
