Preparing the notebook for use
!
Please read the "Important notes" chapter.
Before you can use your notebook for the first time you need to charge the battery and install the
supplied software. The operating system Windows°XP and drivers required are preinstalled.
Upon delivery, the battery can be found in the battery compartment. The battery must be charged if
you want to operate your notebook with the battery.
When not plugged into a mains outlet, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the
battery's life by enabling the system's energy saving functions.
When you use your notebook in your home or office, we recommend you use the mains adapter
instead of the battery.
Please see the "Connecting external devices" chapter for instructions on how to connect devices
such as a mouse and a printer to the notebook.

packaging in the future if you need to transport your device.
