Using your computer for the first time
Be sure to read the enclosed Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort for
information on the safe and proper use of this computer. It is intended to
help you be more comfortable and productive while using a notebook
computer. By following the recommendations in it, you can reduce your
chance of developing a painful or disabling injury to your hand, arms,
shoulders, or neck.
This section provides basic information to start using your computer. It
covers the following topics:
Connecting the AC adaptor
Attach the AC adaptor when you want to charge the battery or operate from
AC power. The battery pack must be charged before you can operate from
battery power.
The AC adaptor can automatically adjust to any voltage ranging from 100
volts to 240 volts and to a frequency of either 50 hertz or 60 hertz, enabling
you to use this computer in almost any country/region. The adaptor
converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage supplied to this
computer.

Initial setup
Use a virus-check program and make sure that it is updated regularly.
Never format storage media without checking its content - formatting
destroys all stored data.
It is a good idea to back up the internal Hard Disk Drive or other main
storage device to external media periodically. General storage media
is not durable or stable over long periods of time and under certain
conditions might result in data loss.
Before you install a device or application, save any data in memory to
the Hard Disk Drive or other storage media. Failure to do so might
result in data loss.
