Preparing the notebook for use
!
Observe the relevant notes in the "Important notes" chapter and in the manual about your
radio component.
You must charge the battery and install the application programmes before you can work with the
notebook. The operating system and drivers required are preinstalled.
When not plugged into a mains outlet, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the
battery's life by enabling the system's energy saving functions.
If you use the notebook in a normal office situation, run it from the mains using the power adapter.
Please see the "Connecting external devices" chapter for instructions on how to connect devices
such as a mouse and a printer to the notebook.
Unpacking and checking your notebook
►
Unpack all the individual parts.
►
Check your notebook for damage incurred during transportation.
i
Should you discover damages incurred during transportation, notify your local sales outlet
immediately!
Do not discard the original packing material of the devices. You may need the packaging
in the future if you need to transport your device.
Selecting a location
!
Select a suitable location for the notebook before setting it up. Consider the following
points when looking for a location:
●
Never place the notebook on a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered furniture,
bed). This can block the air vents and cause overheating and damage.
●
Do not place the notebook on your legs for a longer period of time. The underside of
the notebook heats up during normal operation. Longer contac with the skin can
become unpleasant or even result in burns.
●
Place the notebook on a stable, flat, nonslippery surface. In view of the multitude of
different finishes used on furniture, it is possible that the rubber feet of the notebook
will mark the surface they stand on.
●
Never place the notebook and the power adapter on a heat-sensitive surface.
●
Keep other objects 100 mm away from the notebook and its power adapter to ensure
adequate ventilation.
●
Never cover the fan intake or exhaust openings of the notebook or the power
adapter.
●
Do not expose the notebook to extreme environmental conditions.
Protect the notebook from dust, humidity, and heat.
