Precautions (Battery Pack)
NOTE
The battery pack may become warm during recharging or
normal use. This is completely normal.
Recharging will not commence outside of the allowable
temperature range (0 °C to 55 °C {32 °F to 131 °F}). (
“Battery Power”) Once the allowable range re-
quirement is satisfied, charging begins automatically.
Note that the recharging time varies based on the usage
conditions. (Recharging takes longer than usual when the
temperature is 10 °C {50 °F} or less.)
If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened.
Only use the computer within the allowable temperature
range.
The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount of
time the computer can be run off a particular battery pack
becomes dramatically shorter and repeated recharging
does not restore its performance, the battery pack should
be replaced with a new one.
When transporting a spare battery inside a package, brief-
case, etc., it is recommended that it be placed in a plastic
bag so that its contacts are protected.
Always power off the computer when it is not in use.
Leaving the computer on when the AC adaptor is not
connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity.
Care should be exercised with regard to the following in
order to avoid the possibility of overheating, fire or dam-
age.
Avoid Heat
Do not throw the battery pack into a fire or
expose it to excessive heat.
Do Not Disassemble
Do not insert sharp objects into the battery pack,
expose it to bumps or shocks, deform, disas-
semble, or modify it.
Do Not Short
Do not short the positive (+) and negative (-)
contacts.
Do Not Put into a Microwave
Do not put the battery pack into a microwave
oven or a pressurized chamber.
Avoid Extreme Heat, Cold and Direct Sun-
light
Do not charge, use or leave the battery pack for
extended periods where it will be exposed to
direct sunlight, in a hot place (in a car on a sunny
day, for example), or in a cold place.
Keep Articles Away
Do not place the battery pack together with ar-
ticles such as necklaces or hairpins when carry-
ing or storing.
If the battery pack will not be used for a long period of time
(a month or more), charge or discharge (use) the battery pack
until the remaining battery level becomes 30% to 40% and
store it in a cool, dry place.
This computer prevents overcharging of the battery by re-
charging only when the remaining power is less than approx.
95% of capacity.
The battery pack is not charged when the computer is first
purchased. Be sure to charge it before using it for the first
time. When the AC adaptor is connected to the computer,
charging begins automatically.
Should the battery leak and the fluid get into your eyes, do not
rub your eyes. Immediately flush your eyes with clear water
and see a doctor for medical treatment as soon as possible.
Stop Using
Should the battery emit an abnormal odor, be-
come hot to the touch, become discolored,
change shape, or become in any way different
from normal, remove it from the computer and
stop using it.
Do Not Use With Any Other Computer
The battery pack is rechargeable and was in-
tended for the specified computer. Do not use
it with a computer other than the one for which
it was designed.
Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The bat-
tery pack may no longer function properly if the contacts
are dirty or damaged.
Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to
become wet.

If the connector has holding screws, fasten the screws firmly.
Do not carry the computer with cables attached, and do not pull on the cables forcefully.
Saving Data on the Hard Disk
Hard Disk Lock
When the Hard Disk Lock is set to [Enable], it is impossible to read/write data from/to the hard disk when the hard
disk is installed in a different computer, since a password is also set for the hard disk. When the hard disk is
returned to the original computer, you can read/write data as before. In this case, however, make the settings in the
Setup Utility exactly the same as they were before the hard disk was removed. (Note that this Hard Disk Lock
does not guarantee the complete protection of data.
“Security Measures”)
When Disposing of or Transferring Ownership of This Device
When disposing of or transferring ownership of this device, erase all data on the hard disk in order to prevent the
theft of hard disk data. Even if you delete data or initialize the hard disk through normal Windows commands, data
can still be read using special software. In order to erase all data, either have the data erased by a specialist (at a
charge) or use the hard disk data erase utility (included) (
page 29). (Note that this hard disk data erase utility
does not guarantee that data will be completely erased.)
Also, note that if you transfer ownership of this device without deleting commercial software that you have
installed to the hard disk, you may be in violation of the licensing agreement for that software.
Do not expose your computer to shock.
Use care when handling your computer, shock may damage your hard disk or make your software applica-
tions and data unusable.
Do not power off your computer while software applications are running or hard disk drive indicator ( ) is on.
Properly shut Windows* down to avoid problems.
Save all valuable data to disks.
Backing up data to disks will limit damage should trouble occur to your computer or should you inadvert-
ently change or erase data.

Turn your computer on
Slide the power switch and hold it for approximately one second until the power
indicator turns on before releasing it.
CAUTION
While booting, avoid the following until the hard disk drive indicator ( )
has turned off.
• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
• Touching the power switch.
• Performing any keyboard, touch pad, touchscreen (only for models with
touchscreen), or external mouse operations.
• Closing the display.
Once the computer is powered off, you must wait at least ten seconds before
powering it on again.
When using this computer with the battery pack only, it may take some time
for the power to turn on after sliding the power switch. In this case, slide
the power switch and hold it for more than one second. This phenomenon
occurs because the standby power is minimized while the power is turned
off; it is not a malfunction.
When the CPU temperature rises, the computer may not power on to pre-
vent the CPU from overheating. Should this happen, allow the computer to
cool down then switch the power on again.
If the computer still does not power on, contact your technical support office.

The power saving function is factory set, so if there is no input from a key, the touch
pad, the touchscreen (only for models with touchscreen) or an external mouse (when
one is connected) for a certain interval of time, the power to the LCD and hard disk
may be turned off. The LCD will resume operation when the touch pad, the touchscreen
(only for models with touchscreen) or an external mouse (when one is connected) is
used or a key is pressed.
The power to the LCD may be turned off even when an application software is being
installed. In this case, because it is conceivable that a selection dialog box will be
shown, do not press Space or Enter to attempt to resume from this condition
as doing so may trigger a selection, but instead, press a key unrelated to the direct

Troubleshooting
List of Error Codes
The following is a list of the messages that BIOS can display. Most of them occur during POST. Some of them display information
about a hardware device, e.g., the amount of memory installed. Others may indicate a problem with a device, such as the way it has
been configured. Following the list are explanations of the messages and remedies for reported problems.
If your system displays any of the below error messages other that the ones marked with an asterisk (*), write down the message
and contact your technical support office (
page 32). If your system fails after you make changes in the Setup menus, reset the
computer, enter Setup and install Setup defaults or correct the error.
0200 Failure Fixed Disk
Fixed disk in not working or not configured properly. Check to see if fixed disk is attached properly. Run Setup. Find out if
the fixed-disk type is correctly identified.
0210 Stuck key
Stuck key on keyboard.
0211 Keyboard error
Keyboard not working.
0212 Keyboard Controller Failed
Keyboard controller failed test. May require replacing keyboard controller.
0213 Keyboard locked - Unlock key switch
Unlock the system to proceed.
0230 System RAM Failed at offset : nnnn
System RAM failed at offset nnnn of in the 64k block at which the error was detected.
0231 Shadow RAM Failed at offset : nnnn

0232 Extended RAM Failed at offset : nnnn
Extended RAM Failed at address line : nnnn
Extended memory not working or not configured properly at offset or address nnnn.
0250 System battery is dead - Replace and run SETUP
The CMOS clock battery indicator shows the battery is dead. Replace the battery and run Setup to reconfigure the system.
*0251 System CMOS checksum bad - Default configuration used
System CMOS has been corrupted or modified incorrectly, perhaps by an application program that changes data stored in
CMOS. The BIOS installed Default SETUP Values. If you do not want these values, enter Setup and enter your own values.
If the error persists, check the system battery or contact your technical support office (
page 32).
0260 System timer error
The timer test failed. Requires repair of system board.
0270 Real time clock error
Real-time clock fails BIOS test. May require board repair.
*0280 Previous boot incomplete - Default configuration used
Previous POST did not complete successfully. POST loads default values and offers to run Setup. If the failure was caused by
incorrect values and they are not corrected, the next boot will likely fail. On systems with control of wait states, improper
Setup settings can also terminate POST and cause this error on the next boot. Run Setup and verify that the wait-state
configuration is correct. This error is cleared the next time the system is booted.
0281 Memory Size found by POST differed from EISA CMOS
Memory size found by POST differed from EISA CMOS.
