About Memory Capacity Representation
About the Product Capacity Representation
Standard
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)
About the capacity representation of the storage
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)
For more information, refer to the Samsung Recovery Solution
section.
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.

• LCD bad pixels principle of computer
Samsung observes the specifications regarding strict
quality and reliability of LCD. But in spite of that, it is
inevitable that there might be a small number of bad
pixels. A large number of bad pixels can cause problems in
appearance, but a small number of pixels doesn’t affect the
computer performance.
Therefore Samsung observes and manages the following
dot principles:
- Bright dot : 2 or less
- Black dot : 4 or less
- Combination of Bright and Dark : 4 or less
Instructions for Cleaning the LCD
Clean the LCD panel with a soft cloth lightly moistened with
computer cleansing detergent moving in one direction.

Battery Usage Time Information
A battery is an expendable supply, so when using it over a long
time, the capacity/battery life is shortened. If the battery life is
reduced to under half of its initial time, we recommend purchasing
a new battery.
When not using the battery for a long time, store the battery after
charging it to 30-40% of its capacity. This extends the battery life
time.

Recovery Solution Representation (Optional)
What is a Recovery Area?
The capacity representation of the hard disk drive(HDD)
in Windows is different from the product specifications.
• Samsung computers have an additional partition to recover
computers or save backup files.
• 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.
(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.
This is due to the difference in capacity calculation and does
not mean the installed HDD is different from the product
specifications.
• You can either double-click the Samsung Recovery Solution
icon on the desktop or press
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.
• 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 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.
• 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.

• Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere
Wireless Guidance
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.
(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.
• 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.
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.
• 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.
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.
• 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.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information (SAR)
Before a new model is available for sale to the public, it must
be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the
exposure limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model are
performed in positions and locations (e.g. at the bottom on the
body) as required by the FCC.
This product can be embedded a radio transmitter and receiver.
It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure
limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. government. These
FCC exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two
expert organizations, the National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations
were developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from
industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the
scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF energy.
For body worn operation, this model has been tested and meets
the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with a Samsung
accessory designated for this product. Non-compliance with the
above restrictions may result in violation of FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless devices employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the
human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The
FCC requires wireless devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6
watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates
a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.
SAR information on this and other model can be viewed on-line
at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. This site uses this product FCC
ID number on the outside of the product. Sometimes it may be
necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number. Once
you have the FCC ID number for a particular product, follow the
instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical
or maximum SAR for a particular product.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions
accepted by the FCC with the wireless transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the

DVD (Digital Versatile Disk)
Icon
DVD was developed to replace CD (compact disk). Although the
shape and size of the disc are the same as that of a CD, the capacity
of a DVD is at least 4.7GB while the capacity of a CD is 600MB. DVD
video is digital unlike VHS (analog) video and supports MPEG2

LAN (Local Area Network)
Firewall
A communications network connecting computers, printers and
other devices within a local area such as within a building. A LAN
enables all connected devices to interact with other devices on the
network. The current LAN uses the Ethernet media access control
method developed in the early 1980s. To connect to an Ethernet, a
network card called a LAN card, Ethernet card or network interface
card is required. To exchange data between computers, a protocol
is required besides the hardware equipment. Windows Vista uses
TCP/IP as the default protocol.

all application programs that were running are restored to their last
state.
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)
There are Passive Matrix and Active Matrix LCD types. This
computer uses the Active Matrix type LCD called a TFT LCD. Since
an LCD is implemented by transistors instead of a cathode-ray tube
unlike a CRT, its size can be slim. And because it does not blink, it
reduces eye strain.
