The flat point is a convenient pointing device, with which you can operate the mouse pointer with

your finger movement. It consists of a touchpad and two buttons in front of it.

The touchpad is equivalent to the ball of a mouse. Sliding your finger on it in a desired direction

causes the mouse pointer to move in the same direction on the screen. Lightly tap on it for clicking,

double-clicking, pointing, and dragging.

The left and right buttons are equivalent to those on a mouse and their functions depend on the

application you are running.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Pay attention to the following points when the PC power is on:

•

Do not cover the keyboard with paper or the like.

It may interfere with the heat dissipation, causing a malfunction.

•

After using the PC for a long time, you may feel that the PC surfaces are warm. This is

because the PC is designed to dissipate the internal heat from the entire body, including

the keys on the keyboard, once a certain heat level has been exceeded. So it is not

abnormal.

•

Depending on the use condition, the bottom surface of the PC may be hot. Do not use

the PC for a long time in a condition where the bottom surface touches part of your body,

e.g., placing it directly on the lap.

Do not block the air-cooling fan openings, e.g., putting an object in front of them. It may

cause the PC to be damaged.

Critical Points

ꢀ

POST stands for “Power On Self Test” and is a self-diagnosis test performed to ensure that

no abnormality exists in the PC. POST automatically starts after the PC power is switched

on and completes immediately before the operation system starts.

ꢀ

If you switch the PC power off while POST is running, it is detected that POST is terminated

abnormally. The PC counts the number of abnormal POST terminations. If the PC detects

three continuous abnormal POST terminations, it will give you an error message when you

start the PC for the fourth time. Pay attention not to accidentally switch the PC power off

while the PC is performing POST.

Cause and Solution

Is it in operating mode?

The CD can only be ejected when the personal computer main

unit is in operating mode because its CD-ROM drive has an

electronic lock. Check that the personal computer main unit is in

operating mode and press the EJECT button. If for some reason

the CD tray does not come out even when you press the EJECT

button, insert a clip or somthing into the hole to the right of the

EJECT button and pull the tray out.

If the tray doesn’t still come out, click the CD-ROM icon in the
