Performance Information and Restriction
About the Product Capacity Representation
Standard
•
This computer automatically maintains the CPU and GPU clock
speed at every moment to control the heating and power
consumption of the computer for minimum performance
degradation.
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.
For best computer performance:
1. Connect the AC adapter.
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)
2. Launch Settings software, and select General > Max.
Performance Mode > Activate max. performance mode.
•
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.
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)

Battery Usage Time Information
Measuring the Remaining Battery Charge
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.
You can view the battery charge status by completing the
following procedures.
Confirming the battery charge in the Taskbar
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.
Disconnect the AC adapter and move the mouse cursor over
the battery icon in the system tray of the Taskbar to confirm the
remaining battery charge.
Checking when the computer is off
If you press the Home button
while charging, when your PC is
powered off, the battery indicator is displayed on the screen for a
moment.
Alternatively, if you connect the AC adapter when the computer
is off, the remaining battery charge is briefly displayed on the

Q&A
You can look for potential problems that may occur with the
system and view the relevant solutions. Also, you may look up any
reference(s) required while operating the computer.
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 models with Recovery, the HDD capacity representation
in Windows may be smaller than the actual capacity because
Recovery 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.

What is a Recovery Area?
Q1
The size of Recovery varies by models because of the
different size of applied programs.
A
Samsung computers have an additional partition to recover
computers or save backup files. (Only for models with the
Recovery.)
What is a recovery image?
This partition is called a Recovery Area and it includes a
recovery image that comprises of the OS and application
programs.
Q3
A
This refers to the computer status (including operating
system, specific driver(s), software(s), etc.) which is converted
to a data image. It is required to recover your computer and
is embedded in the computer's hard disk. However, this is
not provided for storage devices where the capacity is less
than 64 GB due to the small capacity.
The capacity representation of the hard disk
drive(HDD) in Windows is different from the product
specifications.
Q2
A
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.

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:

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
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

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
