STARTING YOUR COMPUTER

Thank you for purchasing this Gateway computer!

This guide has been designed to introduce you to the features of your

computer and assist in your computing experience.

After setting up and starting your computer, as shown in the setup

instructions, it will ask you questions that will help you connect to the

Internet. Your computer will then configure installed software.

WIRELESS CONNECTION

To connect to a wireless network, first check the wireless features of

your computer are on, and that the router or modem you want to

connect to is also correctly configured.

• If wireless is not on, press the communication key ( ) to open the

Launch Manager

and make sure Wi-Fi is On.

• Your computer will detect and display any available networks, select

your network and enter the password, if required.

• After a short delay, your computer should connect to the Internet.

If your network is not detected, or your computer does not connect to

the Internet, please refer to your ISP or router’s documentation. After

your computer starts and you can use it, open Internet Explorer and

follow the instructions.

Starting your computer -

Alternatively, use a network cable to connect directly to a network

port on your router. Please refer to your ISP or router’s guide.

COMPUTER BASICS

SAFETY AND COMFORT

Safety precautions

Please follow the guidelines below to use your computer comfortably

and to avoid health problems.

Computer environment

Make sure that the computer:

• Is used on a stable surface, stand or table. A fall can seriously

damage the computer.

• Is not used on a surface that vibrates, or used when taking part in

sport, exercise or other activities in a dynamic environment.

Vibration or movement can loosen fastenings, damage internal

components and even cause battery leakage.

• Is away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.

• Is away from magnetic fields or any device generating static

electricity.

• Is kept at least 30 centimetres (one foot) away from a mobile phone.

• Is not in a dusty or damp environment.

• Is not used near water. Never spill liquids of any kind on or into your

computer.

Computer Basics -

• Is not placed on a carpet or any other surface that may have an

electrical charge.

Cables

Make sure that:

• Cables are not strained and that there is no risk of people walking

or tripping over them.

• Other devices do not crush the cables.

• The power cable is connected to the computer before connecting

the power cable to the AC power outlet.

• The power cable is unplugged from the power outlet before

disconnecting the power cable from the computer.

• Three-pin power cords are connected to a grounded power outlet.

• The power outlet is easily accessible and as close to the computer as

possible (do not overload it with too many adapters).

If your computer uses an external AC adapter:

• Do not cover or place objects on the AC adapter. Allow the adapter

to cool properly during use by keeping it clear of objects.

• Only use the AC adapter that is supplied with your computer.

Although other adapters may look similar, using them can damage

your computer. If a replacement is required, use only parts certified

for use with your computer.

Cleaning your computer

• Always unplug your computer from the power outlet before

cleaning it.

• Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, use a damp cloth instead.

• Never spray cleaning product directly on the screen.

Note: If your computer includes slots for memory cards or

expansion devices, plastic ’dummies’ may be installed in the card

slots. Dummies protect unused slots from dust, metal objects or

other particles. Save the dummies for use when no cards are in the

slots.

Servicing your computer

Do not attempt to service your computer yourself, as opening or

removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other risks.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Unplug your computer from the wall outlet and refer servicing to

qualified service personnel when:

• the power cord or plug is damaged, cut or frayed,

• liquid was spilled into the product,

• the product was exposed to rain or water,

• the product has been dropped or the case has been damaged

• the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a

need for service

Computer Basics -

• the product does not operate normally after following the

operating instructions

Note: Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating

instructions, since improper adjustment of other controls may

result in damage and will often require extensive work by a

qualified technician to restore the product to normal condition.

Health precautions

• The computer and accessories may contain small parts. Keep them

out of the reach of small children.

• If you work or play for hours at a time, then make sure you take

regular breaks. Look away from the computer's screen once in a

while. Do not use your computer if you are tired.

• To protect your hearing, when using speakers or headphones,

increase volume gradually until you can hear clearly and

comfortably; do not increase the volume level after your ears have

adjusted. Do not listen to high volumes for extended periods. Do

not increase the volume to block out noisy surroundings; decrease

the volume if you cannot hear people speaking near you.

• Ensure that the computer’s ventilation slots and openings are never

obstructed or covered. Do not place the computer on a soft surface

(such as a carpet, chair or bed) that may block ventilation slots.

• Do not push objects of any kind into ventilation or case slots as they

may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that may

result in a fire or electric shock.

• Some disorders of the hands, wrists, arms, neck, shoulders, legs and

back may be associated with, or aggravated by certain repetitive

actions. To reduce your risk of developing these disorders, type with

your wrists straight and your hands and wrists floating above the

keyboard. If you experience periods of pain, tingling, numbness or

other discomfort, please contact your doctor.

• We advise that parents monitor the use of games by their children.

If you or your child experience any of the following symptoms:

dizziness, blurred vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of

consciousness, disorientation, any involuntary movement or

convulsion, IMMEDIATELY discontinue use and consult your doctor.

This may happen even if the person has no medical history of

epilepsy.
