Display Panel
The display panel functions the same as a desktop monitor. The Notebook PC uses an
active matrix TFT LCD, which provides excellent viewing like that of desktop monitors.
Unlike desktop monitors, the LCD panel does not produce any radiation or flickering, so
it is easier on the eyes. Use a soft cloth without chemical liquids (use plain water if neces-
sary) to clean the display panel.
Microphone (Built-in)
The built-in mono microphone can be used for video conferencing, voice narrations, or simple audio
recordings.
Touchpad and Buttons
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.
Keyboard
The keyboard provides full-sized keys with comfortable travel (depth at which the keys can be de-
pressed) and palm rest for both hands. Two Windows™ function keys are provided to help ease naviga-
tion in the Windows™ operating system.
Status Indicators
Status indicator details are described in section 3.
Instant Keys
Instant keys allow you to launch frequently used applications with one push of a button. Details pro-
vided later in this manual.

Test) process. There is no hardware or software (including BIOS) setup required after the memory is
installed. Visit an authorized service center or retailer for information on memory upgrades for your
Notebook PC. Only purchase expansion modules from authorized retailers of this Notebook PC to ensure
