Troubleshooting
► Bring the notebook up/down to a normal
temperature again.

extremely short, the battery is probably too
old. Replace battery if necessary.
► Use the mains adapter as frequently as
possible.
► Set the screen slightly darker with the
key combination for Decreasing the screen

power being drawn.
Troubleshooting
► Make sure you have inserted your
SmartCard into the SmartCard reader
with the chip facing upwards/downwards
(device-dependent).
► Check whether the SmartCard you are using
is supported. Your SmartCard must comply
with the ISO standard 7816-1, -2, -3 and -4.
