Getting Started

First-time Operation

Connect your computer to a power outlet.

 

The battery charging starts automatically.

 CAUTION 

  Do not disconnect the AC adaptor and do not switch the wireless switch to on 

until the 

fi

 rst-time operation procedure is completed.

  When using the computer for the 

fi

 rst time, do not connect any peripheral device 

except the battery pack and AC adaptor.

  Handling the AC adaptor

  Problems such as sudden voltage drops may arise during periods of thunder 

and lightning. Since this could adversely affect your computer, an uninter-
ruptible power source (UPS) is highly recommended unless running from the 
battery pack alone.

Turn on the computer.

A

 Pull the carrying handle forward.

B

 Push and hold the latch (A), and lift open the display.

C

 Slide and hold the power switch   for approximately one second until the 

power indicator   lights.

 CAUTION 

  Do not slide the power switch repeatedly.

  The computer will forcibly be turned off if you slide and hold the power switch for 

four seconds or longer.

  Once you turn off the computer, wait for ten seconds or more before you turn on 

the computer again.

  Do not perform the following operation until the hard disk drive indicator   turns off.

  Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor

  Sliding the power switch

  Touching the keyboard, touch pad or touchscreen (only for model with touchscreen)

  Closing the display

  When the CPU temperature is high, the computer may not start up to prevent 

overheating of the CPU. Wait until the computer cools down, and then turn the 

power on again. If the computer does not power on even after cooling down, 

contact Panasonic Technical Support (  page 36).

4 Setup 

Windows.

A

 Follow the on-screen instructions.

 CAUTION 

  When you set date/time/time zone and click [Next], the screen may not go to the 

next step for a few minutes. Do not touch the keyboard or touch pad, and wait 

until the screen changes.

  If “An unexpected error has occurred…” (or a similar message) is displayed, 

click [OK]. This is not a malfunction.

  Wait until the hard disk drive indicator   has turned off.

  This computer periodically records the management information including the 

hard disk information such as number of hours powered-on, number of times 

powered-on, internal temperature, replacement sector. The maximum data vol-

ume for each record is 750 byte. These information are only used for estimating 

the cause when the hard disk goes down by any possibility. They are never sent 

to outside via network nor used for any other purpose except for the purpose 

described the above.

To disable the function, add the check mark for [Disable the automatic save 

function for management information history] in [Hard Disk Status] of PC Infor-

mation Viewer, and click [OK].
