When using suitcase or backpack, please make sure that the suitcase or backpack
are not packed with so many stuffs inside and no additional pressure is put on the
netbook computer bag especially the back part of LCD.
Don’t place the screen of LCD in an environment where the temperature exceeds
40 degree Celsius or the humidity exceeds 90%.
Don’t place any things between LCD screen and keyboard, such as pencil,
documents and so on, which will destroy or scratch LCD screen. Please don’t use
corrosive detergent to wipe LCD screen, which will destroy screen.
2) In order to prevent computer from getting overheated, please make sure not to block heat
disperse ventilation vents while the computer is in operation.
3) When the computer system is accessing floppy drive, CD-ROM, mobile storage and other
mediums, please don’t remove the mediums. Otherwise, it will lead to the system failure
or data destruction.
4) Please don’t open the computer shell when the system is running because this will lead to
data loss or damage to the netbook. The formatting of HD can delete all the data in HD.
Please back up the data in advance. As for important data, please make sure that they
have been timely backed up in other storage mediums. Data loss incurred shall be the
sole responsibility of the netbook owner.
5) In order to guarantee the safety of yourself and the netbook, please make sure that the
power has been correctly grounded when using the external power supply. If you won’t
use the computer for a long time, please pull off the power plug in order to avoid transient
voltage causing system damage. The power supply should be stable and be free from
interference. When you are not clear about the local specifications on electric appliance,
please consult your local power company. For the sake of safety, please don’t damage the
grounding line of power socket. When plugging off the power, you should avoid pulling off
the power supply cable. Instead, please make sure to pull from the base of socket so as
to guarantee safety. Before cleaning the netbook, please ensure that the plug if
5

1) Applicable group
[Note] You should know certain basic common language of computer in order to operate the
netbook. The use of computer by children must be supervised by adult.
2) Working environment
[Danger] In order to prevent failure, the computer should run within the following defined
environmental scope:
6
Working temperature 10°C - 35°C
[Warning] In order to prevent the computer from being harmed by the environment (dampness,
dust, food, liquid, direct exposure to sunlight etc ), the computer should be placed in a dry
place with good ventilation.
In order to prevent the computer from being disturbed and damaged by the magnetic field,
please keep it away from other household electric appliances (such as Television set, air
conditioner etc).
Please avoid water or liquid from directly being directly in contact with the computer. Otherwise,
it may lead to short-circuiting of its internal components, which will further give rise to electric
shock or fire accidents.
[Note] If the computer is switched on and started when the low temperature condition hasn’t
been resumed, it may lead to unrepairable faults on the computer. Therefore, before using the
computer, please make sure that the temperature of the computer is at the room temperature
(above 10 Celsius degrees).
[Warning] After the computer is stored and transported under the environment of lower than
10°C, the computer should be placed for over 2 hours under the room temperature condition
of 10°C - 35°C before being used in order to prevent the computer temperature from getting
excessively low, which thus give rise to electrical damages. Please don’t disassemble the
package during the period. Let the computer resume its temperature naturally and avoid the
temperature increasing excessively quickly, which thus leads to electrical damages.
[Note] Before using the computer, please make sure that the computer connection, power use
and other concerns conform to the requirements in the specifications.
The computer should be placed in the original packing box in case of transportation. You
7
should pile and place the packing box according to the symbol and indication of packing &
transportation diagram. You should also use closed cases in case of removal.
[Note] In case of storage, the packing materials should be placed beyond children’s reach in
order to prevent accidents.
than 10°C, before using the computer, please place the computer for over 2 hours under the
room temperature condition of 10-35°C in order to avoid electrical shock damages due to
excessively low computer temperature. Please don’t disassemble the package during the
period. Let the computer resume its temperature naturally and avoid the temperature
increasing excessively quickly, which thus leads to electrified damages due to computer
frosting and dewing.
Battery
[Note] Incorrect replacement of the lithium battery may result in the risk of explosion. Please
make sure that the replacement and installation of lithium battery be done by trained
maintenance staff. Only battery products of same or equivalent types recommended by
manufacturers can be used for replacement. The proper discarding of battery will lead to
serious environmental pollution. Please dispose of the consumed battery in a proper way or
Please observe the following rules and use your battery properly.
1) Newly-purchased battery: The new battery can only be charged after the original
electricity capacity is fully consumed.
2) Lifespan of battery:
Improper use and maintenance may shorten the battery lifespan. In order to increase the
battery lifespan and enhance the battery functions, the battery should be fully and thoroughly
8
discharged every 30 days and be re-charged until saturation.
3) Battery gauge:
Inside the battery there is a built-in gauge, which can calculate the electricity of
battery. The battery gauge depends on the battery memory to determine the extent
whether to stop charging and discharging. However, if you frequently do incomplete
In order to increase the accuracy of the battery gauge, you should do complete
discharging and complete charging until saturation for at least one time every other
30 days or after 20 times incomplete discharging.
Due to the battery’s own characteristics, the quantity of electricity will gradually
decrease and the duration of operation will be shortened. During the battery warranty
period, the battery may not be charged to 100%. However, this doesn’t affect the
normal operation. This is a common phenomenon.
which can slow down the speed of processor and ambient parts. The use of
these functions will help to save the battery power
As for different software and peripherals, even if they are not the program or
equipment in use, they still consume power. In order to save the battery
power, we recommend as follows:
9
If the Modem or other communication programs are not used, these
programs shall be shut off.
:Let the computer run with the battery power until the computer automatically shuts off

due to excessively low power. Even when you see the information on excessively low
power on the computer screen or when you hear the warning beep sound of
excessively low power, you cannot manually shut off the computer. You should let the
continuously running state of the computer go on until all the battery power is
consumed and the computer is automatically shut off.
:When the battery is being charged, you should generally wait until that the battery

indication lamp on the computer indicates the charging has been completed, i.e.
For details, please refer to the indication lamp of power state in this manual.
A:You should do one complete discharging and charging at least every 30 days or after
every other 20 times of incomplete discharging.
6) Special attention:
The improper replacement of battery types may lead to explosion risks. Only the
original battery of same type or the battery kinds of same levels recommended by
10
the original manufacturer can be used for replacement.
In order to prevent the fire accident, combustion or damages on the battery, the two
poles of the battery cannot be touched with metallic articles.
Special care should be taken when handling damaged battery or battery with liquid
leakage. If you accidentally touch the battery liquid, please quickly flush with soap
and water. If it touches you eyes, please wash your eyes with water for 15 minutes
and rush to hospital for medical treatment.
If the environmental temperature is on the high side, please don’t charge the
battery.
When storing the battery, please don’t expose the battery to a high temperature.
7) Power
