We recommend that the notebook is supplied with power through
the mains adapter during this procedure.
When you switch your notebook on for the
fi
rst time, the supplied software is
installed and con
fi
gured. Due to the fact that this installation procedure must not
be interrupted, you should set aside enough time for it to be fully completed and
connect the notebook to the mains outlet using the mains adapter.
During installation, the notebook must only be rebooted when you are requested to do so!
You will be prompted to create a backup copy of the pre-installed operating system. This
backup copy can be used later to restore your notebook to its delivery con
fi
guration.
You can
fi
nd information on how to restore the operating system, drivers, manuals
and special software in the Recovery Process manual.
Your operating system is pre-installed on the hard disk to facilitate the procedure
when you use your notebook for the
fi
rst time.
