Working with the notebookLCD screenLCDscreenNotesHigh-quality LCD screens (TFT) are installed in Fujitsu notebooks. For technical reasons,these screens are manufactured for a specific resolution. An optimal, clear picture canonly be ensured in the resolution intended for the particular screen. A screen resolutionwhich differs from the specification can result in an unclear picture.The resolution of the screen of your notebook is optimally set at the factory.Current production technology cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A fewisolated constantly lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number of suchfaulty pixels is specified in the international standard ISO 9241-307 (class 2).Example:A screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 has 1280 x 800 = 1024000 pixels. Each pixel consists ofthree subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are almost 3 million subpixels in total. According to ISO9241-307 (class 2), a maximum of 2 light and 2 dark pixels and in addition 5 light or 10 dark subpixelsor an equivalent mix (1 light subpixel counts as 2 dark subpixels) are allowed to be defective.At a resolution of 1600 x 900 = 1440000 pixels, a maximum of 3 light and 3 dark pixelsand in addition 7 light or 14 dark subpixels are allowed to be defective.Pixel A pixel consists of 3 subpixels, normally red, green andblue. A pixel is the smallest element that can be generatedby complete functionality of the display.Subpixel A subpixel is a separately addressable internal structurewithin a pixel that enhances the pixel function.Cluster A cluster contains two or more defective pixels orsubpixels in a 5 x 5 pixel block.Background lightingLCD screens are operated with background lighting. The luminosity of the backgroundlighting can decrease during the period of use of the notebook. However, you canset the brightness of your monitor individually.Synchronizing the display on the LCD screen and an external monitorFor more information, please refer to Chapter "Key combinations", Page 47under "Switching between screen output".Ambient light sensorIf your notebook was shipped with a Windows operating system, the screen brightness isregulated by the ambient light sensor and is dependent on the particular light conditions.This results in optimum readability and longer battery life at the same time.Using a device as a tablet PCYou can execute commands as follows:• using the stylus (supplied with your device).• using your finger32 Fujitsu

Programs that supporthandwriting recognition also allow you to write characters directly on the screen withthepen. Youcanalsousethestylusasadrawingtool.The notebook stylus is retained securely in the stylus slot. This ensures that the stylus cannot belost, regardless of whether you use the notebook as a Tablet PC or as a notebook, or transportit while traveling. Always replace the stylus in its slot when you are not using it. To remove fromthe stylus slot, slide the removal button for the stylus to the front of the device to the right.The notebook is supplied with a stylus tether which you can attach to theeyelets on the stylus and on the notebook.38 Fujitsu
Working with the notebookOnly use the stylus provided with your notebook. Do not use substitute stylustips that were not specially designed for your notebook. Replace the stylus tipif it is worn. The warranty does not cover a scratched screen.While writing, you should take care that you do not scratch the surface ofthe display (e.g. with a wristwatch or bracelet).The stylus of your notebook is an electronic instrument which can be damagedif used improperly. Handle the stylus with care.Our recommendations for proper handling of the stylus are as follows:• Do not gesture with the stylus.• Do not use the stylus as a pointer.• Never use the stylus on any other surface than the screen of your notebook.• Do not try to turn the grip of the stylus. The thumb grip is used to placethe stylus in its slot and to take it out of the slot.• Never store the stylus with its weight on the tip (e.g. with the tip down in a styluscontainer). If the stylus is stored with the tip pointing down, this may have anadverse effect on the stylus mechanism (particularly under high temperatures). Inthis case the stylus tip may react as though it is constantly being pressed down. Toavoid damage, the stylus should be stored in the stylus slot when not in use.The stylus can be influenced by electromagnetic fields (cursor quivers orjumps). There may be a few areas on the screen where the cursor quiversslightly in spite of pressing the stylus down firmly.The screen responds to entries made with the tip of the finger or the stylus when thetip of the finger or the stylus directly touches the screen.You can use the stylus to perform all functions for which you would otherwise use a mouse.In addition, you can conveniently delete hand-written stylus entries using the pen.Action Mouse StylusSelecting menuitemsClick with the left mouse button.

Manufacturer’s notesENERGY STAR ComplianceYour Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PC. Bychoosing a computer with the latest energy-saving technology, you’rehelping to preserve our environment for future generations. ENERGYSTAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,U.S. Department of Energy, Natural Resources Canada, and othergovernments around the world helping us save money while protectingthe environment through energy efficient products and practices. Withenergy costs and global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu iscommitted to offering solutions that help consumers conserve energyand improve the quality of our environment.Sleep mode:You will notice that your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 10 minutes ofuser inactivity, and the computer goes into Sleep mode after 30 minutes of user inactivity. Whengoing into Sleep mode, the computer also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet networklinks. To “wake” the computer from Sleep mode, press the Suspend/Resume Button.Energy saving benefits:Fujitsu ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standardequipment – saving half in utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a differencefor the environment. Did you know that the average house can be responsible for twice thegreenhouse gas emissions as the average car? That’s because every time you flip on a lightswitch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more greenhousegas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy efficiency,the more we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming.To learn more about the important ENERGY STAR program, visit:"www.energystar.gov".To read about how Fujitsu is supporting Sustainable Management along withseveral other environmental activities, visit the Fujitsu Corporate Citizenship page at:"http://www.computers.us.fujitsu.com/www/content/aboutus/environmental/environment.php".Fujitsu 111

The WLAN operates in the 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific,and Medical (ISM) RF band and the lower, middle, and upper bands of the 5GHzUnlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) bands.• The WLAN devices are capable of five operating modes, IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11ac,IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, and IEEE802.11n.• The WLAN device is Wi-Fi certified and operates (as applicable) at the maximum datarate of 450 Mbps in IEEE802.11n mode (300 Mbps in this configuration); 54 Mbpsin IEEE802.11g mode; and 11 Mbps in IEEE802.11b mode.• The WLAN devices support the following encryption methods - WEP,TKIP, CKIP, and AES encryption.• The Wireless LAN devices are compliant with the following standards: WPA,WPA2, CCX1.0, CCX2.0, CCX3.0, and CCX4.0.Wireless LAN Modes Using this DeviceAd Hoc Mode"Ad Hoc Mode" refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivitybetween multiple computers is established without a central wireless network device, typicallyknown as Access Point(s). Connectivity is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-peerfashion. That is why Ad Hoc networks are also known as peer-to-peer networks. Ad Hocnetworks are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network connectivity betweenmultiple computers. Ad Hoc mode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and encryptionkey settings are identically configured on all computers in the Ad Hoc network.Fujitsu 117
AppendixAccess Point (Infrastructure) ModeInfrastructure mode refers to a wireless network architecture in which devices communicate withwireless or wired network devices by communicating through an Access Point. In infrastructuremode, wireless devices can communicate with each other or with a wired network. Corporatewireless networks operate in infrastructure mode because they require access to the WLAN inorder to access services, devices, and computers (e.g., file servers, printers, databases).118 Fujitsu

Having a copy of the recovery image available toyou means that in the event of system failure, you will be able to restore it and re-installthe essential access software using Fujitsu Software Auto Installer.To make a copy of the recovery image to DVD disks, you will need three or four blankdisks to create the copy. After creating the copy, be sure to label the disks and keepthem in a safe place to ensure they do not get damaged.Note: If your system does not have an internal writable DVD drive, connect yoursystem to an external drive* before beginning the following steps.1. Launch System Restore and Recovery from the desktop icon. It will allow you to createthe Bootable Disk and the Recovery Image Disk Set.2. On “Step 1: Select the Bootable Disk from the list”:a. Select a media type.b. Notice the number of disks that are needed for the set.c. Click Next to proceed.3. On “Step 2: Confirm your Recovery Disk”, click Next.4. On “Step 3:” follow the on-screen instructions to make the disk or disk set, then clickStart. It takes approximately 20 minutes to make one disk.5. On “Step 4”, when the disk creation is completed, a message appears.Click Finish to exit the program.6. Repeat Step 1: Select Recovery Disk from the list and repeat the abovesteps 2(a), 2(b), 2(c), 3, 4 and 5.* DEPENDING UPON YOUR OPTICAL DRIVE AND MEDIA FORMAT USED, SOME MEDIATYPES MAY BE INCOMPATIBLE FOR CREATING IMAGE BACKUPS.124 Fujitsu
