Performance Information and Restriction  
About the Product Capacity Representation  
Standard  
Online games and some games(3D,2D) may not be supported  
and Full HD video and some high bit rate HD video playback  
may be slow and stutter on this computer.  
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.  
If the main board goes out of order, the data saved on the  
storage device cannot be used due to the characteristics of this  
product.  
The operating system (Windows) calculates the capacity of the  
storage device assuming that 1KB=1,024 Bytes, and therefore  
the representation of the storage device capacity in Windows  
is smaller than the actual capacity due to the difference in the  
capacity calculation.  
Make sure that you always back up all your important data.  
(E.g. For an 80GB storage device, the capacity is represented as  
74.5GB by the operating system. 80x1,000x1,000x1,000 byte/  
(1,024x1,024x1,024)byte=74.505GB)  
Windows may also display a smaller hard disk capacity due  
to some hidden functions or software programs such as the  
Recovery program.  
About Memory Capacity Representation  
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)

Proper Posture During Computer Use  
Maintaining a proper posture during computer use is very  
important to prevent physical harm.  
Do not use the computer while you are lying down, but only  
while you are sitting down.  
The following instructions are about maintaining a proper posture  
during computer use developed through human engineering.  
Please read and follow them carefully when using the computer.  
Do not use the computer on your lap. If the computer  
temperature increases, there is a danger of burning yourself.  
Work while keeping your waist straight.  
Use a chair with a comfortable back.  
Otherwise, the probability of (RSI: Repetitive Strain Injury) from  
repeated operations may increase and serious physical harm may  
be caused.  
Keep the center of your leg weight not on the chair but on  
your feet when you are sitting on a chair.  
To use the computer while talking over the telephone, use a  
headset. Using the computer with the phone on your shoulder  
is bad for posture.  
The instructions in this manual have been prepared so that  
they can be applied within the coverage of general users.  
If the user is not included in the coverage, the  
recommendation is to be applied according to the user’s  
needs.  
Keep frequently used items within a comfortable work range  
(where you can reach them with your hands).  
Proper Posture  
Adjust the heights of desks and chairs appropriate to your  
height.  
The heights are to be adjusted so that your arm forms a right  
angle when you place your hand over the keyboard while sitting  
down on a chair.  
Adjust the height of chair so that your heel is comfortably placed  
on the floor.

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.  
Cleaning the LCD panel with excessive force can damage the  
LCD.

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.

Regulatory Compliance Statements  
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  
using. 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.  
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices.  
Examples of common restrictions are listed on the next page:

reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base  
station antenna, the lower the power output.  
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 contain an embedded 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 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

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. This section is  
only applicable if these devices are present. Refer to the system  
label to verify the presence of wireless devices.  
Unintentional Emitter per ICES-003  
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio  
noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the radio  
interference regulations of Industry Canada.

When using IEEE 802.11a wireless LAN, this product is restricted to  
indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15- to 5.25-GHz frequency  
range. Industry Canada requires this product to be used indoors  
for the frequency range of 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to reduce the  
potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite  
systems. High power radar is allocated as the primary user of the  
5.25- to 5.35-GHz and 5.65 to 5.85-GHz bands. These radar stations  
can cause interference with and/or damage to this device.  
This device complies with RSS 210 of Industry Canada. Operation  
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not  
cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference,  
including interference that may cause undesired operation of this  
device.”  
The term “IC” before the equipment certification number only  
signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were  
met. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the  
antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent  
isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required  
for successful communication. To prevent radio interference  
to the licensed service, this device is intended to be operated  
indoors and away from windows to provide maximum shielding.  
Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed outdoors is  
subject to licensing.  
The maximum allowed antenna gain for use with this device  
is 6dBi in order to comply with the E.I.R.P limit for the 5.25- to  
5.35 and 5.725 to 5.85 GHz frequency range in point-to-point  
operation.  
The power output of the wireless device (or devices), which may  
be embedded in your notebook, is well below the RF exposure  
limits as set by Industry Canada.

RF Exposure (for corresponding 3G models only)  
The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific  
information does not indicate the need for any special precautions  
for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you want to reduce  
your exposure then you can do so by limiting the length of calls to  
keep the mobile devices away from the head and body.  
General Statement on RF energy  
Your wireless WAN embedded PC contains a transmitter and a  
receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When  
you communicate with your Notebook PC, the system handling  
your connection controls the power level at which your Notebook  
PC transmits.  
Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields  
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to  
RF fields, the World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the  
following advice:  
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information  
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does not  
indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of the  
Notebook PC. If individuals are concerned, they might choose  
to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the  
length of connections.  
This wireless WAN embedded PC is included a radio transmitter  
and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure  
to radio waves recommended by international guidelines.  
These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific  
organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure  
the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.  
Further information on this subject can be obtained from the  
WHO home page http://www.who.int/peh-emf  
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific  
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/  
kg and the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the  
body was 0.565 W/kg. (SAR measurement distance is 0 cm from  
the phantom)  
WHO Fact sheet 193: June 2000.  
As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest transmitting  
power the actual SAR of this device while operating is typically  
below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to  
the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum

computer is damaged.  
This refers to automatically allocating IP addresses to the users on  
the network by the network administrators.  
Direct X  
Chargeable USB  
An application interface developed to enable Windows application  
programs to access hardware devices at a very high speed. Since  
the operating speed of graphics, memory and sound cards must be  
very fast to provide high quality video and sound for games, Direct  
X enables faster control and interaction between applications and  
hardware devices. By using Direct X, the multimedia performance  
of Windows has been hugely improved.  
This program enables supplying power to a specific USB port when  
the system is in power saving mode, hibernation mode or off.  
Client  
This refers to a computer that uses a shared network resource  
provided by a server.  
DDR SDRAM  
Driver  
(Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory)  
Software that interacts between the hardware and the operating  
system. An operating system knows the hardware information  
and controls the hardware. In general, a driver is supplied with the  
corresponding hardware device.  
DRAM is a memory type whose cells consist of a capacitor and  
transistor manufactured at a low price. SDRAM is a memory type  
whose performance has been improved by synchronizing the clock  
with the external CPU clock. DDR SDRAM is a memory type whose  
performance has been improved by doubling the operating speed  
of the SDRAM and is widely used nowadays. This computer uses  
DDR SDRAM.  
D-sub (D-subminiature)  
This is the cable connecting a general CRT monitor and the  
computer. Analog video is output through this cable.

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  
compression and digital audio. To play a DVD, a DVD drive is  
required.  
This refers to a small image that represents a file that users can use.  
IEEE802.XX  
This is a set fo specifications developed by the 802 committee of  
IEEE for the LAN connection method called XX.  
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 uses TCP/IP  
as the default protocol.  
A security system used to protect an internal network or intranet  
from external networks through an authentication procedure.  
HDMI  
This is a digital video / audio interface specification that transmits  
video and audio signals over a single cable.  
Hibernation Mode  
This is the state where the computer saves all the information in  
memory to the storage device and shuts down. When canceling  
Hibernation Mode, 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.

small or large and can be connected permanently through cables  
or temporarily through telephone lines or wireless links. The  
biggest network is the Internet, a worldwide network.  
This is an extended card slot specification for mobile computers  
such as a notebook computer. Not only a memory, device but also  
most peripherals such as hard disk drives, LAN cards, etc. can be  
connected to this card slot.  
Network Administrator  
Protocol  
A user who plans, configures and manages network operations.  
Sometimes, a network administrator is called a system  
administrator.  
A protocol is a set of rules used by computers to communicate with  
each other across a network. A protocol is a convention or standard  
that controls or enables the connection, communication, and  
data transfer between computing endpoints. It defines the data  
transmission procedures and the transmission medium for more  
efficient network functions.

This refers to a toolbar that can be configured so that you can  
launch a program such as Internet Explorer or display the Windows  
Desktop with one click. You can add any icon to the quick launch  
area of the Taskbar and launch frequently used program by clicking  
that icon.  
This refers to the act or practice of dividing the storage space of  
a hard disk drive into separate data areas known as partitions. If a  
100GB hard disk drive is partitioned into 2 x 50GB partitions, the  
hard disk drive can be used as if there are 2 hard disk drives.
