Precautions for Operating System Support

If a problem occurs because of the reinstallation of other operating systems(OS) or a previous version of a OS pre-installed on this computer, or a software that does not support the OS, the company will not provide technical support, a replacement or refund, and if our service engineer visits you due to this problem, a service charge will be applied.

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.

Before You Start

Chapter 1. Getting Started

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)

For more information, refer to the Samsung Recovery Solution section.

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 data on the hard disk drive.

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.

Sudden impact or movement to the computer while the hard disk drive is operating, may cause files 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.

Using the power supply in an airplane

Since the power outlet type differs depending on the type of airplane, connect the power appropriately.

Since the representative figures of the power plug and the auto adapter are used, they may differ from the actual parts.

When using the AC power plug

Connect the power plug pins perpendicular into the center of the power outlet.

If the plug pins are not inserted into the center of the holes, the plug pins are only inserted up to half their length. In this case, reconnect the power plug.

You have to insert the power plug into the outlet when the power indicator (LED) of the power outlet is lit green. If the power is connected properly, the power indicator (LED) remains green.

Otherwise, the power indicator (LED) is turned off. In this case, unplug the power, check if the power indicator (LED) is green, and then reconnect the power plug.

Connecting an External Display Device

Chapter 2. Using the computer

If you connect an external display device such as a monitor, TV, projector, etc., you can view the picture on the wider screen of the external device when you give a presentation or watch a video or movie.

The computer provides an analog monitor port (RGB) and a digital video/audio port (HDMI).

The visual quality is sharper when a display device is connected through the HDMI port rather than the analog monitor port (RGB) port. Therefore, when multiple ports are supported, connect a display device to a port that provides the better visual quality.

Before you start, check the port and cable of the external display device and then connect the display device to the computer.

Due to restrictions of the operating system the DualView function is not supported for Windows 7 Starter.

About the connection cable

Users should additionally purchase the necessary connection cables.

Recovery Solution Representation (Optional)

What is a Recovery Area?

Samsung computers have an additional partition to recover • computers or save backup files.

(Only for models with the Samsung Recovery Solution.)

This partition is called a Recovery Area and it includes a recovery image that comprises of the OS and application programs.

You can either double-click the Samsung Recovery Solution icon on the desktop or press F4 while booting the computer to enter the Recovery Area. Then you can back up the present computer state or recover the computer from backed up images.

For deleting the Recovery Area, you need to use an additional • Recovery Area Removal Tool. After deleting the recovery area, you can use the newly created partition for other uses, such as for saving personal data. Be careful that once the recovery area is deleted, the Samsung Recovery Solutions will not work anymore.

The capacity representation of the hard disk drive(HDD) in Windows is different from the product specifications.

The capacity of the storage device (HDD) 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.

This is due to the difference in capacity calculation and does not mean the installed HDD is different from the product specifications.

The capacity representation in Windows may be smaller than the actual capacity because some programs occupy a certain area of the HDD outside of Windows.

For models with Samsung Recovery Solution, the HDD capacity • representation in Windows may be smaller than the actual capacity because Samsung Recovery Solution uses a hidden area of about 5\~20GB of the HDD to save the recovery image, and that hidden area is not counted towards the total size available to Windows.

The size of Samsung Recovery Solution varies by models because of the different size of applied programs.

Wireless Guidance

(If fitted 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 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.

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 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.

Regulatory Compliance Statements

Chapter 5. Appendix

!

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 the manufacturer System Restoration Kit, or contact manufacturer Technical Support for additional information.
