Use the Cool and Quiet on lap feature

The Cool and Quiet on lap feature helps cool down your computer when it becomes hot. Any extended
contact with your body, even through clothing, could cause discomfort. If you prefer using your computer on
the lap, it is recommended that you enable the Cool and Quiet on lap feature in UEFI BIOS:
1. Enter the UEFI BIOS menu. See "Enter the UEFI BIOS menu" on page 25.
2. Click Config and turn on the Cool and Quiet on lap mode switch.

Connect to a Bluetooth-enabled device

You can connect all types of Bluetooth-enabled devices to your computer, such as a keyboard, a mouse, a
smartphone, or speakers. To ensure the connection is successful, place the devices 10 meters (33 feet), at
most, from the computer.
1. Turn on Bluetooth on the computer.
• Click the system menu drop down (top right) and choose Settings.
• Choose the Bluetooth menu and enable Bluetooth with the toggle button at the top.
2. Any discoverable devices will be shown in the Devices list.
3. Select a Bluetooth device, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
Your Bluetooth-enabled device and computer will automatically connect the next time if the two devices are
in range of each other with Bluetooth turned on. You can use Bluetooth for data transfer or remote control
and communication.
