Handling and Maintenance

■ Preventing your computer from unauthorized use via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Wireless WAN

- Before using Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Wireless WAN, make the appropriate security settings such as data encryption.

■ Sensors

This computer is equipped with four sensors (acceleration sensor, gyro sensor, magnetic sensor, ambient light sensor), and you can use these sensors with any software that is compatible.

As the accuracy of each sensor output is dependent on the operating environment and other conditions, the results should only be used as a reference.

The acceleration sensor, gyro sensor, and magnetic sensor are located at the bottom left of the LCD. The detection results of each sensor may vary depending on the display mode, how you are holding the computer, the application software you are using, and other factors.

● Automatic brightness adjustment

The computer is equipped with an automatic brightness adjustment function that adjusts the display screen based on the ambient light sensor. You can configure the automatic adjustment function as follows.

① Touch Ⓐ - [ Settings] - [ Display] - [Brightness]. ② Touch [AUTO] to select the automatic adjustment function.

The ambient light sensor is located at the top of LCD.

The ambient light cannot be detected properly if this area is obstructed or dirty.

● Magnetic sensor

The magnetic sensor on the computer operates by detecting geomagnetism. Therefore, the magnetic sensor may not function properly and its readings may be inaccurate, especially in the following environments.

• Inside or near steel structures such as buildings or bridges
• Inside or near automobiles, or near train power lines
• Near metallic furniture or appliances
• When the AC adaptor or other peripheral devices are brought closer to the computer
• Near magnets, speakers, or other objects with strong magnetic fields

The magnetic directions indicated by the magnetic sensor may not be accurate immediately after purchase or in environments with poor magnetic fields.

In such cases, turn on the computer and move it as follows.

① Hold the computer so that its display side is facing the ground and level. ② While keeping the computer level, rotate it 90 degrees or more clockwise. ③ Return the computer to position ①, and rotate it 90 degrees or more counterclockwise. ④ Return the computer to position ①. ⑤ Tilt the computer 90 degrees or more to the left so that the left side of the computer tilts down. ⑥ Return the computer to position ①, and tilt it 90 degrees or more to the right so that the right side of the computer tilts down.

CAUTION

- Hold the computer firmly when moving it. Strong shocks from dropping the computer may result in damage.

Handling and Maintenance

Maintenance

If drops of water or other stains get on the surface of the LCD panel, wipe them off immediately. Failure to do so may result in staining.

To clean the LCD panel

Use the soft cloth. (For further information, refer to “Suggestions About Cleaning the LCD Surface” → Reference Manual “Maintaining the performance of the screen”.)

To clean areas other than the LCD panel

Wipe with a soft dry cloth such as gauze. When using detergent, dip a soft cloth in water-diluted detergent and wring it thoroughly.

CAUTION

• Do not use benzene, thinner, or rubbing alcohol since it may adversely affect the surface causing discoloration, etc. Do not use commercially-available household cleaners and cosmetics, as they may contain components harmful to the surface.
• Do not apply water or detergent directly to the computer, since liquid may enter inside of the computer and cause malfunction or damage.
