Display Panel (3)
The Mobile System uses an ultra-clear flat panel which provides excellent viewing like
that of desktop monitors without any harmful radiation or flickering, so it is easier on
the eyes. Use a soft cloth without chemical liquids (use plain water if necessary) to
clean the display panel.
WARNING: The display panel is fragile. Do not bend or press on the panel.
Power Switch (4)
The power switch turns the Mobile System ON and OFF and can also put the Mobile
System into sleep or hibernation modes. Actual behavior of the power switch can be
customized in Windows Control Panel “Power Options.”
Instant Keys (5)
Instant keys allow you to launch frequently used applications with one push of a
button. Details are described in section 2.
Audio Speakers (6)
The built-in stereo speaker system allows you to hear audio without additional
attachments. The multimedia sound system features an integrated digital audio
controller that produces rich, vibrant sound (results improved with external stereo
headphones or speakers). Audio features are software controlled.
Keyboard (7)
The keyboard provides full-sized keys with comfortable travel (depth at which the keys
can be depressed) and a palm rest for both hands. A Windows function key is provided
to help ease navigation in the Windows operating system.
Touchpad and Buttons (8)
The touchpad with its buttons is a pointing device that provides the same functions as
a desktop mouse. A software-controlled scrolling function is available after setting up
the included touchpad utility to allow easy Windows or web navigation.
Status Indicators (top) (9)
Status indicators represent various hardware/software conditions. See indicator
details in section 2.
