Preparing your notebook for use

First-time setup Gettingstarted Notebook

If your notebook comes with a Windows operating system then all of the necessary hardware drivers and the supplied software will already be pre-installed.

Depending on the hardware and software configuration, the first-time setup for the Microsoft Windows operating system can take up to 20 minutes. When you switch on the notebook for the first time it will perform a system check. A number of different messages may be displayed. In the process, the display may flicker or darken temporarily. Please follow the instructions on the screen. It is very important that you do not switch the notebook off during this initial set-up process. Before you can use your notebook for the first time you will need to charge the battery. On delivery, the battery can be found in the battery compartment or in the accessories kit. The battery must be charged if you want to operate your notebook with the battery. When not plugged into a mains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the battery’s life by enabling the system’s energy saving functions. If you use the notebook in at home or in an office, we recommend you use the mains adapter instead of the battery. Please refer to the "AMILO Notebook" operating manual for instructions on how to connect external devices (e.g. a mouse or a printer) to the notebook..

Unpacking and checking your notebook

Should you discover any damage incurred during transportation, notify your local sales outlet immediately!

► Unpack all the individual parts.

► Check your notebook for damage incurred during transportation. Transport Packaging

We recommend that you keep the original packaging material.

You may need the packaging in the future if you need to transport your device.

Preparing your notebook for use

Selecting the location

Notebook Location,selectingthe Power adapter

Select a suitable location for the notebook before setting it up. Consider the following points when selecting a location:

Never place the notebook and the mains adapter on a heat-sensitive surface. This could damage the surface.

Never place the notebook on a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered furniture, bed). This can block the air vents and cause damage due to overheating. Do not place the notebook directly on your legs for extended periods. The underside of the notebook heats up during normal operation. Extended contact with the skin can become unpleasant or even result in burns. Place the notebook on a stable, flat, non-slip surface. Please note that the rubber feet may mark certain types of surfaces. Keep other objects 100 mm away from the notebook and its mains adapter to ensure adequate ventilation. Never cover the ventilation slots on the notebook. Do not expose the notebook to extreme environmental conditions. Protect the notebook against dust, humidity and heat.

Connecting the mains adapter

Preparing Mains adapter foroperation

Please observe the safety precautions in the enclosed "Safety" manual.

The supplied mains cable conforms to the requirements of the country in which you purchased your notebook. Make sure that the mains cable is approved for use in the country in which you intend to use it. The mains cable of the mains adapter must only be connected to a mains socket if the notebook is connected to the mains adapter. Make sure that the rated current of the mains adapter is not higher than that of the power system to which you connect the mains adapter (refer to the "Technical Data" section, "Mains adapter", Page 11). ► Connect the mains adapter cable (1) to the DC jack (DC IN) on the notebook. ► Connect the mains cable (2) to the mains adapter. ► Plug the mains cable (3) into a mains outlet.

Preparing your notebook for use

Switching the notebook on for the first time

Switching onfor thefirsttime

We recommend that the notebook is supplied with power through the mains adapter during this procedure.

When you switch your notebook on for the first time, the supplied software is installed and configured. Because this installation procedure must not be interrupted, you should set aside enough time for it to be fully completed and connect the notebook to the mains outlet using the mains adapter. During installation, the notebook must only be rebooted when you are requested to do so! You will be prompted to create a backup copy of the pre-installed operating system. This backup copy can be used later to restore your notebook to its delivery configuration. We strongly recommend that, as soon as possible after purchasing your equipment, you create a backup copy on DVD of the pre-installed operating system in its delivery configuration. If you have forgotten an operating system password which has been assigned, without previously having saved the operating system, recreation of the necessary data media and return to the factory default setup will no longer be possible. You can find further information on how to restore the operating system, drivers, manuals and special software in the "Recovery Process" manual. Your operating system is pre-installed on the hard disk to help you when you start using your notebook for the first time. ► Switch the notebook on (1).

► During installation, follow the on-screen instructions.

Consult the operating system manual if anything is unclear about the requested input data.

If a Windows operating system is installed on your notebook, you will find more information on the system and drivers, help programs, updates, manuals etc. on the notebook or on the Internet under "http://ts.fujitsu.com/support".
