Preparing your notebook for use
Preparing your notebook for use
First-time setup Notebook Gettingstarted Notebook
If your notebook comes with a Windows operating system then all of the necessary
hardware drivers and the supplied software will already be pre-installed.
With the operating system Microsoft Vista, it may take up to 20 minutes to prepare your
notebook for use depending on the hardware
fi tted and the software supplied.
When you switch on the notebook for the fi rst time it will perform a system
check. A number of different messages may be displayed. In the process,
the display may
fl icker or darken temporarily.
Please follow the instructions on the screen.
It is very important that you do not switch the notebook off during this initial set-up process.
Before you can use your notebook for the fi rst time you will need to charge the battery.
On delivery, the battery can be found in the battery compartment or in the accessories kit. The
battery must be charged if you want to operate your notebook with the battery.
When not plugged into a mains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can
increase the battery’s life by enabling the system’s energy saving functions.
If you use the notebook in at home or in an of fi ce, we recommend you use
the mains adapter instead of the battery.
Please refer to the "AMILO Notebook" operating manual for instructions on how to connect
external devices (e.g. a mouse or a printer) to the notebook..
