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.
Keyboard
4
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.
Stereo Speakers
5
The built-in stereo speaker system allows you to hear audio without additional attachments. The
multimedia sound system features an integrated digital audio controller that produces rich, vibrant
sound (results improved with external stereo headphones or speakers). Audio features are software
controlled.
Touchpad and Buttons
6
The touchpad with its buttons is a pointing device that provides the same functions as a desktop mouse.
A software-controlled scrolling function is available after setting up the included touchpad utility to
allow easy Windows or web navigation.
Status Indicators
7
Status indicator details are described in section 3.
CD Player Control Buttons
8
There are several CD control buttons integrated externally on the Notebook PC for convenient 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. (See section 3 for more
information.)
Power Switch
9
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.
