The battery can now be charged up.

Fig. 3
PLEASE NOTE

Make sure that you allow the battery to charge for TWO hours if the computer is switched off, or for FIVE hours if the computer is switched on.
It is absolutely essential that the first time you charge the battery you fully charge it. Do not unplug the notebook from the power adapter until the battery is fully charged!
REMOVING THE BATTERY

Fig. 4
Slide the catch (1) upwards. The battery is released.
Pull the battery out of the battery slot in the direction of the arrow (2).
You can now run the notebook with the power adapter alone.
POWER SUPPLY
You can choose to run the notebook via battery or power supply.
The first time you use the computer, you need to use the power adapter. Use only the supplied power adapter. Using the wrong power adapter can cause damage to the computer.

The power adapter contains no serviceable parts.
NEVER OPENTHE POWER ADAPTER!

DANGER OF DEATH!
The notebook is supplied with a power cable and a universal, self-adjusting power adapter. The power adapter can operate with any constant voltage between 100 and 240 volts.
To use the power adapter:
- Connect the power cable to the power adapter.

SWITCHING THE COMPUTER ON

Fig. 6
You've completed the preparation. Now press and hold the on/off button for one second to switch on the notebook.
Once the computer is switched on, the on/off button can perform several functions depending on the energy settings.
In the standard settings, pressing it again will switch off the computer.
Note:
Please note that with the Windows operating systems you should always switch off the computer as follows: Click the Start button Select Shut Down Click OK
This avoids problems with the hard disk and operating system.
Tip:
If you experience a program or system crash, press the Ctrl + Alt + Del keys all at the same time. If you're lucky this will enable you to end only the task that has crashed and/or restart the computer
(warm start). If this does not work, hold down the on/off button for more than four seconds – this will switch off the computer. You can now start up the computer as normal (cold start).
The operating system is installed the first time you switch on the computer. Please follow the operating system's installation instructions here.
After installation and restarting, the computer is ready to use.
The basic graphics functions allow you to modify the resolution, color depth, and desktop appearance.
If you want to use the additional graphics functions such as TV Out, monitor port, multidisplay, etc., then you need to install the advanced VGA driver from the Utility CD.
You can find more detailed information on this from page 26 onwards in the installation instructions.
POWER MANAGEMENT
Your system is compatible with APM and the newer (and more efficient) ACPI energy saving system.
Note on PC Cards
Never unplug a PC card while the system is in save-to-disk mode. This would deactivate the slot and problems could occur with a modified system configuration the next time you start up the computer
HARDWARE (Battery Status &Warnings)
After completing the POST (power-on self-test), the battery status display shows the charge state of the battery. The symbol flashes when the battery charge is low. Save your data immediately and connect the power adapter.
Low charge level & SUSPEND
When the battery runs low (without the power adapter connected), one of these two protective functions is automatically activated:

PLEASE NOTE
Without Save-to-Disk
If there is no save-to-disk file or partition set up on your system, then current data will be stored in RAM and the system automatically switches into suspend mode.
With Save-to-Disk
Data is saved in the special file or partition on the hard disk reserved for this purpose. The computer then automatically switches off.
If there is no save-to-disk file or partition available, the system switches into suspend mode.

THE DATA/FAX MODEM
The system automatically sets up the integrated analog modem. To use the modem functions, connect the modem socket to an analog telephone socket (not ISDN) using the telephone cable.
Proper Use:
The modem can be connected to all analog sockets (TBR 21) in Europe.
It is to be used solely for data communication purposes.

PLEASE NOTE
Do not attempt to connect the modem to an ISDN telephone socket!
This would result in serious damage to the device.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS AND TROUBLESHOOTING
If a problem occurs while working with your computer, first of all try using the following information to solve the problem. If the problem cannot be solved in this way, you can find additional information in the advanced service handbook (on the device drivers and utilities CD-ROM). If the problem persists, switch off the system for several minutes and then restart it. You will lose all unsaved data, but the system may work properly again. Subsequently contact your dealer or customer support agent.
Although I'm pressing the power switch the computer stays switched off
Possible cause of the problem: The battery is missing or is incorrectly installed
Note: The power on LED is not lit.
Troubleshooting:
o Make sure that the battery is in the battery compartment and is inserted properly.
Check that the battery terminals are making direct contact.
o Connect your notebook to the power adapter so that the battery (if present) can recharge.
Possible cause of the problem: battery level low
Note: The battery display LED flashes.
Troubleshooting:
Operate the computer using the power adapter. If the system does not immediately start up, switch off the computer and then restart it.
The screen is not working
Possible cause of the problem: The energy saving mode is activated.
Note: The suspend LED flashes.
Troubleshooting:
o Press the on/off button for approx. 1 second.
Possible cause of the problem: The screen settings are incorrect.
Troubleshooting:
o Press the Fn + F4 key combination, several times if necessary.
If an external monitor is connected, switch it on.
Possible cause of the problem: In the system settings, a different screen type to the existing one is set.
Troubleshooting:
o Press the Fn + F4 key combination.
If an external monitor is connected, connect this to a power source and switch it on. Also check the brightness and contrast settings (you can find additional information on this topic in the advanced service handbook).
The system stops working.
Possible cause of the problem: An energy saving function has been activated.
Note: The screen switches itself off.
Troubleshooting:
Press any key, or press the on/off button if none of the status LEDs are lit.
Possible cause of the problem: A software error has caused a system crash.
Troubleshooting:
The operating system handbook will provided further information.
If you cannot remedy the problem, then restart the system. You will lose any unsaved data! If this doesn't work either, briefly switch off the computer and then switch it back on again.
Warnings
Each time the system starts, it carries out a self-test (POST). If an error occurs, an error message appears, briefly describing the problem.
You can find information on what to do next in the advanced service handbook.
