First, place your fingers on the keyboard in the normal typing position. The touchpad is easily accessible by moving either your left or right thumb off the space bar and on to the touchpad. 2. Gently move your thumb across the pressure-sensitive touchpad in the direction you want the cursor to move. The pad detects the change in pressure and moves the cursor in the corresponding direction. 3. The touchpad offers another method of making selections in a software program. It is called double-tapping. This function corresponds to double-clicking with a mouse. Once the cursor has been moved to the object you want to select, lightly double-

tap the pressure sensitive touchpad. This double-tapping on the touchpad will select the desired item and prompt the software to 23 I H S L G N E Chapter 2 Getting Started perform the related operation. 4. The buttons located directly below the touchpad are the same in function as those on a two-buttoned mouse. Clicking these buttons makes selections, drags objects, or performs a variety of other functions depending on the software. To select an object, first move the pointer over the object you want to select, and then press the left button one time. The functions of these buttons are software specific. 5. Double-clicking is a common technique for selecting objects or launching programs from icons. Once you have moved the pointer over the object you wish to select, rapidly press the left button two times. This action is commonly referred to as double-

clicking an object. Dragging There are two ways to drag:

Move the pointer to the desired location then press down the left button. While still holding down the left button, move the pointer to the desired location. Release the button. Move the pointer to the desired location. Tap the touchpad twice quickly as if you were double-clicking, however do not remove your finger after the second tap. Move the cursor to the desired location. Lift your finger to finish dragging. Adjust the touchpad settings by selecting Settings/Control Panel/Mouse/Buttons. These settings allow you to change the orientation of the touchpad from right-handed to left-handed, and fine tune the pointer movement and timing of clicks. Touchpad Precautions The Touchpad is a pressure-sensitive device. If not properly cared for, it can be easily damaged. Please take note of the following precautions. Make sure the touchpad does not come into contact with dirt, liquids or grease. Do not touch the touchpad if your fingers are dirty. Do not rest heavy objects on the touchpad or the touchpad buttons.

The calibration process empties and charges the battery one time. This allows the Windows battery gauge to accurately monitor battery status. To calibrate a battery, follow these steps:

1. Plug in the AC adapter. 2. Restart the computer and when the startup screen appears, press Del key to enter the BIOS Setup Utility. In the BIOS Setup Utility, select Advance settings. , choose Battery learning, then press enter. 3. Execute Battery Learning function?

[OK] [Cancel]

4. Press <OK> at the above Battery Auto Calibration dialog to begin the battery calibration.. Battery Calibration will take from 4 to 8 hours, depending on how much power the battery may already contain. Note: For optimum performance, we recommend calibrating the battery again every three months. Each time you charge and discharge a battery, it loses a tiny part of its storage capacity, so that, over time, it will store less than its potential charge. Similarly, if you do not use the battery for a few days, it will slowly self-discharge, and when it is recharged, it will hold less than 100%

of the potential charge. 46 E N G L S H I Power Management Monitoring Battery Power Monitoring Battery Power There are two ways to monitor how much power the battery has left. 1. Click start/Control Panel/Power Options;

then click Power Meter. 2. Moving the cursor to the battery icon on the taskbar is the simplest way to check on battery power status. If you do not see the battery icon, enable it in Start /Control Panel/Power Options. Choose the Advanced tab and click Always show icon on the taskbar. Low Battery Alarms How your computer responds to a low battery condition is set under Start/Control Panel/Power Options/Alarms. Two different power alarms can be enabled or disabled: the Low Battery Alarm, and the Critical Battery Alarm. Use the slidebar to set the power level at which the alarms are activated. Click on the Alarm Action button to choose whether the alarm sounds, displays a message, or both. Warning: When battery power is low, the Notebook will display a warning on the screen. Take immediate action, such as saving files or connecting to the AC adapter, or data may be lost. When the computer alerts you that the battery is low, immediately do one of the following:

Connect the AC power adapter 47 I H S L G N E Chapter 5 Power Management Save your work, turn off the computer and replace the discharged battery with a charged battery (See Changing the Battery below). Do not restart the computer until you have connected to an AC adapter, or replaced the discharged battery with a charged battery. Battery Charging When you use the AC adapter to connect your Notebook to a power outlet, the internal battery will automatically begin to recharge. While the battery is charging, the Battery Charge icon on the Indicator panel will be active. When the battery is fully charged, the Battery Charge icon will turn off. If your computer is turned off or standby mode, a fully discharged battery will take about 3 hours to recharge. Note: A fully charged battery can run the Notebook for approximately 4 hours. (Pentium-M 1.4GHz) Power Saving Modes Adjust the default power management settings in the Power Options/

Advanced dialog box in the Control panel. The Power Options Properties dialog box allows you to set different actions to take when the computer is left idle for a certain amount of time. Suspend Mode There are several possible settings for suspend mode, which can be selected in the Power Management dialog box: You may have the notebook standby, suspend, or you can power off the computer altogether. Initiating Suspend Mode There are four ways to initiate suspend mode. The settings can be adjusted in the Power Management dialog box:

48 E N G L S H I Power Management Power Saving Tips The computer will automatically enter suspend mode when not used for a set period of time. Selecting the Stand by button in the Shut Down Windows dialog box. Closing the screen cover (assuming no external monitor has been connected).

Slide back the side battery latch (1) then insert the battery into the battery compartment. Check that the latch locks back into position. 50 Power Management Heat Considerations Heat Considerations The computer's processor has been specially designed to consume little power, and generates very little heat. However, working in a hot environment, or working for long periods may raise the temperature. Your computer takes the following steps to lower temperature:

E N G L S H I 1. The cooling fan will automatically turn on. You may feel air coming from a vent at the left side when this happens. If the temperature continues to rise, processor activity will be reduced. You may notice a slight loss of performance when this happens. 2. 51 I H S L G N E Chapter 5 Power Management 52 E N G L S H I CChhaapptteerr 66 UUssiinngg tthhee BBIIOOSS SSeettuupp UUttiilliittyy I H S L G N E Chapter 6 Using the BIOS Setup Utility Using the BIOS Setup Utility Your notebook has a BIOS setup utility which allows you to configure important system settings, including settings for various optional functions of the computer.
