connect your notebook to the wireless LAN. If you are connecting to a business or campus wireless network, please contact your network administrator for configuration assistance. Check your packing slip to see if your model has this feature.

Caring for your LCD display

The display on your notebook will maintain its original crisp and bright appearance if cared for properly. Avoid touching the display with fingers or other objects that could- scratch the screen. Use only a soft cloth and an approved cleaning solution to clean the display—coarse cloth, strong cleansers or alcohol-based solvents will damage the screen. When cleaning the display use very gentle pressure to avoid scratching or other damage. Avoid exposing your notebook to extreme heat or cold. Protect the outside of the notebook when carrying it to prevent impacts to the notebook casing that could damage the display or other components.

Battery safety and maintenance

If your notebook will not operate on battery power, press the power indicator button on the battery to see if the battery has enough charge remaining to power the notebook. If it does, remove your battery and check and clean the metal connections with a soft cloth to ensure they are able to conduct electricity. Replace the battery and reconnect your AC adapter and ensure that the AC adapter light is on and the charge indicator (located on the front edge of the

12notebook) glows orange to indicate a charging battery. If after several hours of charging the battery still fails to hold a charge, the battery may have exceeded its useful life and a new battery may need to be purchased.
