Display Panel
3
The display panel functions the same as a desktop monitor. The Notebook PC uses an active
matrix TFT LCD, which provides excellent viewing like that of desktop monitors. Unlike
desktop monitors, the LCD panel does not produce any radiation or flickering, so it is easier on
the eyes. Use a soft cloth without chemical liquids (use plain water if necessary) to clean the
display panel. Note: This Notebook PC incorporates the new V-cut technology to increase
brightness and reduce weight, but a little light will leak due to a limitation of the V-cut technology.
Status Indicators

Status indicator details are described in section 3.
Power Switch

The power switch allows powering ON and OFF the Notebook PC and recovering from STD. Use the switch
once to turn ON and once to turn OFF the Notebook PC. In Windows XP, this button can also be used to
safely turn OFF the Notebook PC. The power switch only works when the display panel is opened.
Keyboard

The keyboard provides full-sized keys with comfortable travel (depth at which the keys can be depressed)
and palm rest for both hands. Two Windows™ function keys are provided to help ease navigation in the
Windows™ operating system.
Touchpad and Buttons

The touchpad with its buttons is a pointing device that provides the same functions as a desktop mouse. A

Windows or web navigation.

CD playing. The buttons activate and control your operating system's software audio player
when the Notebook PC is ON. When your Notebook PC is OFF, the CD control buttons
activate a hardware CD player function that allows you to listen to audio CDs without software.
