Your CELSIUS Mobile A is a versatile and ergonomic notebook. Innovative technology and
ergonomic design make this notebook the ideal user-friendly and reliable travel companion.
To simplify the initial start-up of your notebook, one or two operating systems are preinstalled on the
hard disk (dual-installation). If two operating systems are preinstalled, you can select which of the
two operating systems you want to install during initial start-up.
The energy-saving processor and the configurable energy-saving functions allow you to make the
most effective use of the battery capacity.
Your notebook has 128 -1024 Mbyte of main memory installed, depending on the upgrade level.
Data is stored on a hard disk drive. Your notebook is also equipped with a 3 1/2-inch disk drive.
Depending on the model, your notebook is delivered with a CD-RW drive, a DVD-ROM drive or a
combo drive (CD-RW/DVD). A PC card slot (CardBus or PCMCIA) enables the device to operate
two type II PC cards or one type III PC card. Depending on the variant, your notebook may be
equipped with an internal mini-PCI board.
Your notebook has connectors for external devices such as an external monitor, a printer, and a
mouse. The ECP capable parallel port is designed for fast bi-directional data transfer. You can
connect peripheral devices such as a scanner, loudspeakers, gamepads, keyboard, or mouse via
the two USB ports. In addition, your notebook is equipped with a TV-Out connector to connect to a
television.
For mouse control, the notebook has a touchpad with touchpad buttons.
An audio controller, two built in loudspeakers and a built in microphone provide your notebook with

environment. You can also connect an external microphone and an external loudspeaker.
The system settings of the notebook can be configured via the user-friendly BIOS Setup programme.
Certain system settings (e.g. screen display, energy saving functions) can be modified via various
key combinations while you are using the notebook.
Your notebook has a number of security features to ensure that no unauthorised persons can
access your data. You can activate the fingerprint sensor for example. The security functions in the
BIOS Setup also allow you to protect your data by means of passwords.
