First things first

We would like to thank you for making an Acer notebook your choice for 
meeting your mobile computing needs.

Your guides

To help you use your Acer notebook, we have designed a set of guides:
First off, the Just for Starters... poster helps you get started with setting up your 
computer.
The printed Aspire Series Generic User Guide contains useful information 
applying to all models in the Aspire product series. It covers basic topics such as 
Acer's Empowering Technology, using the keyboard, audio, etc. Please 
understand that due to its nature, the Generic User Guide as well as the 
AcerSystem User Guide mentioned below will occasionally refer to functions or 
features which are only contained in certain models of the series, but not 
necessarily in the model you purchased. Such instances are marked in the text 
with language such as "only for certain models".
The printed Quick Guide introduces you to the basic features and functions of 
your new computer. For more on how your computer can help you to be more 
productive, please refer to the AcerSystem User Guide. This guide contains 
detailed information on such subjects as system utilities, data recovery, 
expansion options and troubleshooting. In addition it contains warranty 
information and the general regulations and safety notices for your notebook. 
It is available in Portable Document Format (PDF) and comes preloaded on your 
notebook. Follow these steps to access it:

1 Click on 

 Start, All Programs, AcerSystem.

2 Click on AcerSystem User Guide.

Note: Viewing the file requires Adobe Reader. If Adobe Reader is not 

installed on your computer, clicking on AcerSystem User Guide will run the 

Adobe Reader setup program first. Follow the instructions on the screen to 

complete the installation. For instructions on how to use Adobe Reader, 

access the Help and Support menu.
