Please observe below safety measures:  
Make sure the PCMCIA eject handle does not protrude out at all times, unless you are  
using the handle to eject PCMCIA card. A protruded handle is prone to external  
interference; such as ramming by an inkjet printer or external keyboard.  
When no card (SD card/ SD-IO card/ MS card/ MS Pro card/ MMC card) is not  
inserted into the 5-in-1 socket, make sure this socket is covered by the “5-in-1 socket  
door” as supplied together with this notebook. The purpose of this “5-in-1 socket  
door” is to prevent foreign matters from entering into the system unit through this  
socket, when no card is inserted.

Battery  
Chapter 2 Battery  
2.1 Battery Pack  
Your notebook is equipped with a high-energy rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery  
pack. In general, the battery life of a fully charged battery pack may vary from different  
configurations (CPU, HDD, Memory etc.) and system utilization (especially I/O activities).  
2.2 Recharging The Battery Pack  
Your notebook supports both on-line and off-line recharge. Follow the procedure below to  
recharge battery:  
Make sure the battery pack is installed in the notebook.  
Connect the AC adapter to the notebook and to an electrical outlet.  
When a battery pack is being recharged, its battery LED (located near the bottom center of  
display panel) would be lit up. For details on the LEDs, please refer to Chapter 1.3. When  
the notebook is OFF, a depleted Li-Ion battery will take three hours to recharge.

User's Guide  
2.3 Questions and Answers:  
Q: I can feel the heat next to the Touch Pad during recharge. Is it normal?  
A: The battery will generate heat during recharging and discharging. There is a  
protection circuit inside the notebook to prevent overheating. User needs not to  
worry.  
Q: My battery operation time is not as long as it should be. Why?  
A: The battery is heat sensitive and can only be charged to its maximum if the battery  
and its environmental temperature remain within 15-25°C (59-77°F). The more the  
temperature deviates from this range during recharging, the less chance there is for  
the battery to be fully charged. In order to recharge the pack to its full capacity,  
users are requested to cool down the unit by unplugging the AC Adapter. Wait until  
it is cooled down. Then plug in the AC Adapter to start recharging again.  
Q: I did not use my spare battery for a few days. Even though it was fully recharged,  
there wasn't as much power left as a newly charged one. Why?  
A: The batteries will self-discharge (1% per day for Li-Ion) when they are not being  
recharged. To make sure a battery pack is fully charged, recharge before use.  
Always keep the battery inside the notebook and have the AC adapter connected  
whenever possible.  
Q: I did not use my spare battery for months. I have problem in recharging it.  
A: If you happen to leave your battery pack to go through an extended period of self-  
discharge, say more than three months, the battery voltage level will become too  
low and needs to be Pre-Charged (to bring the battery voltage level high enough)  
before it automatically (for Li-Ion only) resumes its normal Fast Charge. Pre-  
Charge may take 30 minutes. Fast Charge usually takes 2~3 hours.

Battery  
2.4 Battery Maintenance  
To maintain the battery pack's maximum capacity, you should occasionally let the  
notebook deplete its battery power completely before recharging.  
To carry out a complete depletion of the battery, disconnect the AC adapter and let your  
notebook consume the remaining battery power. To speed up the depletion, use the HDD  
as much as possible, and the LCD should be set as bright as possible. When the battery is  
empty, wait for the notebook to cool down (especially the battery). The temperature should  
be within 15-25°C (59-77°F). Then insert the AC adapter to recharge the battery.  
2.5 Power Consumption  
The Windows® XP, the latest Windows operating systems, has incorporated the latest  
state-of-the-art ACPI (Advanced Configuration Power Interface) power management  
methodology. In order to fully utilize the power of your battery packs, it would be a good  
idea for you to spend sometime to acquire a basic understanding of the power management  
concept from your operating system.  
In Windows® Operating Systems, you can go through Power Options of the Control  
Panel according to the version of Windows® Operating System the notebook applies.  
We shall not describe them in details. The Power Options in Windows® XP are further  
divided into as below:

User's Guide  
2.6 Reducing Power Consumption  
Although your notebook (together with the operating system) is capable of power  
conservation, there are measures you can take to reduce the power consumption:  
Use the AC power whenever possible.  
Lower the intensity of the LCD backlight. A very bright screen translates to higher  
power usage.  
Try to use the HDD or the PCMCIA drive to read and write files, instead of using  
the external USB FDD.  
Note: The battery pack should be locked in the battery compartment all the time.  
2.7 Removing The Battery Pack  
This battery pack can easily be removed and replaced. Make sure that the computer is  
properly shutdown before changing the battery pack. If you would like to change the  
battery pack while power is on, make sure this battery pack is not the only electrical source  
to the system unit. Follow the steps below to remove the battery pack.  
Have the system properly shutdown.  
Flip the system upside down as  
shown.  
Press the handle to release battery  
latch as shown by #1.  
Maintain the handle in released  
position.  
Push the battery latch to unlock as  
shown by #2. The battery pack would  
pop up a little bit.  
Remove the battery pack as shown by  
#3.  
To insert the battery pack, reverse the steps above.

Appendix A  
USA And Canada Safety Requirements And Notices  
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 93-62 has adopted a safety standard for human  
exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified  
equipment. The Intel PRO/Wireless LAN MiniPCI Adapter products meet the Human  
Exposure limits found in OET Bulletin 65, 2001, and ANSI/IEEE C95.1, 1992. Proper  
operation of this radio according to the instructions found in this manual will result in  
exposure substantially below the FCC’s recommended limits.  
The following safety precautions should be observed:  
Do not touch or move antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving.  
Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close or  
touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.  
Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; if  
not, the radio may be damaged.  
Use in specific environments:  
The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints posed  
by the safety directors of such environments.  
The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation  
Administration (FAA).  
The use of wireless devices in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each  
hospital.  
Antenna use:  
In order to comply with FCC RF exposure limits, low gain integrated antennas should  
be located at a minimum distance of 20 cm (8 inches) or more from the body of all  
persons.  
High-gain, wall-mount, or mast-mount antennas are designed to be professionally  
installed and should be located at a minimum distance of 30 cm (12 inches) or more  
from body of all persons. Please contact your professional installer, VAR, or antenna  
manufacturer for proper installation requirements.  
Explosive Device Proximity Warning  
Warning: Do not operate a portable transmitter (such as a wireless network device) near  
unshielded blasting caps or in an explosive environment unless the device has been  
modified to be qualified for such use.  
Use On Aircraft Caution  
Caution: Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of radio-frequency  
wireless devices because their signals could interfere with critical aircraft instruments.
