If a radio component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS) is integrated in your notebook, you  
must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:  
Switch off the radio components when you are in an aircraft or driving in a car.  
Switch off the radio components when you are in a hospital, an operating room or near a medical  
electronics system. The transmitted radio waves can impair the operation of medical devices.  
Switch off the radio components when you let the device get near ammable  
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petrol station, paintshops), as the  
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a re.  
For information on how to switch radio components on and off, see chapter  
Energy saving  
NEnoetersgysaving

LCD screen  
LNCoDtescreen  
High-quality LCD displays are installed in notebooks from Fujitsu. For technical reasons, TFT  
monitors are manufactured for a specic resolution. An optimal, clear picture can only be  
ensured with the correct resolution intended for the relevant TFT monitor. A monitor resolution  
which differs from the specication can result in an unclear picture.  
The screen resolution of the LCD monitor of your notebook is optimally set at the factory.  
Current production technology cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A few  
isolated constantly lit or unlit pixels (picture elements) may be present. The maximum permitted  
number of such faulty pixels is specied in the international standard ISO 9241-307 (Class II).  
Example:  
A screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 has 1280 x 800 = 1024000 pixels. Each pixel consists of  
three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 3 million subpixels in total. According to ISO  
9241-307 (class II), a maximum of 2 light and 2 dark pixels and in addition 5 light or 10 dark subpixels  
or an equivalent mix (1 light subpixel counts as 2 dark subpixels) are allowed to be defective.  
Pixel  
A pixel consists of 3 subpixels, normally red, green and  
blue. A pixel is the smallest element that can be generated  
by complete functionality of the display.  
Subpixel  
Cluster  
A subpixel is a separately addressable internal structure  
within a pixel that enhances the pixel function.  
A cluster contains two or more defective pixels or  
subpixels in a 5 x 5 pixel block.  
Background lighting  
LCD monitors are operated with background lighting. The luminosity of the background  
lighting can decrease during the period of use of the notebook. However, you can  
set the brightness of your monitor individually.  
Synchronising the display on the LCD screen and an external monitor

Webcam  
Webcam  
Depending on the device variant, a WebCam may be integrated in your notebook.  
Depending on the software used, you can use your Webcam to take pictures,  
record video clips or take part in web chats.  
The WebCam has its own status indicator. The indicator lights up when the WebCam is switched on.  
The picture quality depends on the lighting conditions and the software being used.  
You can only operate the webcam with a particular application (e.g. an Internet telephony  
program or a video conferencing program which supports a webcam).  
When using the webcam the notebook support must not wobble.  
The webcam automatically adjusts itself to the current light level. For this reason  
the LCD screen may icker while the light level is adjusted.  
Further information on using the webcam and on the additional settings  
which are possible for your webcam can be found in the help function  
of the program which uses the webcam.

Keep the battery pack between 32° F and 86° F/ 0°C and +30°C. The lower the temperature  
at which the batteries are stored, the lower the rate of self-discharge.  
If you will be storing batteries for a longer period (longer than two months),  
the battery charge level should be approx. 30 %. To prevent exhaustive  
discharge which would permanently damage the battery, check the level  
of charge of the battery at regular intervals.  
To be able to make use of the optimal charging capacity of the batteries, the battery  
should be completely discharged and then fully recharged.  
If you do not use the batteries for long periods, remove them from the  
notebook. Never store the batteries in the device.  
Removing and installing the battery  
Only use rechargeable batteries approved by Fujitsu for your notebook.  
Never use force when tting or removing a battery.  
Make sure that no foreign bodies get into the battery connections.  
Never store a battery for longer periods in the discharged state. This  
can make it impossible to recharge.

Handling optical disks  
Handling  
Observe the following guidelines when handling optical disks:  
Avoid touching the surface of a data carrier. Only handle data carriers by their edges.  
Always store data carriers in their cases. This will protect the data carrier against  
being covered in dust, scratched or damaged in any other way.  
Protect your data carriers against dust, mechanical vibrations and direct sunlight.  
Avoid storing a data carrier in areas subject to high temperatures or humidity.  
You may use both 3-in. / 8-cm and 4.7-in. / 12-cm disks in the optical drive.  
When using an optical disk of lesser quality, vibrations and reading errors may occur.

You may only remove the optical disk when the indicator is unlit.  
If the CD/DVD indicator does not go out after a data carrier has been inserted, but  
instead continues to ash, this means that the drive cannot access the data carrier.  
Either the data carrier is damaged or dirty or you are using a data  
carrier that the drive cannot read.

Recycling your battery  
Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a  
shorter amount of time; this is a natural occurrence for all batteries. When this occurs,  
you may want to replace the battery with a fresh one*. If you replace it, it is important  
that you dispose of the old battery properly because batteries contain materials that  
could cause environmental damage if disposed of improperly.  
Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the services of the  
Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC)**, a nonprot public service organization  
dedicated to protecting our environment by recycling old batteries at no cost to you.  
RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousands of locations throughout the United States and  
Canada. To nd the location nearest you, go to "www.RBRC.org" or call 1-800-822-8837.  
If there are no convenient RBRC locations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer  
Education Initiative website "http://EIAE.org/ " and search for a convenient disposal location.  
Remember – protecting the environment is a cooperative effort, and you should  
make every effort to protect it for current and future generations.  
* To order a new battery for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site  
at "www.shopfujitsu.com" in the US or "www.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks" in Canada.  
** RBRC is an independent third party to which Fujitsu provides funding for  
battery recycling; RBRC is in no way afliated with Fujitsu.

Manufacturer’s notes  
ENERGY STAR Compliance  
Your Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR qualied mobile PC. By choosing a computer with the  
latest energy-saving technology, you’re helping to preserve our environment for future generations.  
ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department  
of Energy, Natural Resources Canada, and other governments around the world helping us save  
money while protecting the environment through energy efcient products and practices. With  
energy costs and global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu is committed to offering  
solutions that help consumers conserve energy and improve the quality of our environment.  
Sleep Mode:  
You will notice that your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 15 minutes of  
user inactivity, and the computer goes into Sleep mode after 20 minutes of user inactivity. When  
going into Sleep mode, the computer also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network  
links. To wake” the computer from Sleep mode, press the Suspend/Resume Button.  
Energy saving benets:  
Fujitsu ENERGY STAR qualied mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standard  
equipment – saving half in utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a difference  
for the environment. Did you know that the average house can be responsible for twice the  
greenhouse gas emissions as the average car? That’s because every time you ip on a light  
switch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more greenhouse  
gas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy efciency,  
the more we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming.
