The Power-On Self-Test (POST)
The POST (Power-On Self-Test) is a series of software-controlled diagnostic
tests that run when you turn on or restart your Notebook PC. The software that
controls the POST is installed as a permanent part of the Notebook PC’s
architecture.
Using POST to access BIOS and Troubleshoot
During POST, you can access the BIOS settings or run troubleshooting options
using the function keys of your Notebook PC. You may refer to the following
information for more details.
BIOS
The BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) stores system hardware settings that
are needed for system startup in the Notebook PC.
The default BIOS settings apply to most conditions of your Notebook PC. Do not
change the default BIOS settings except in the following circumstances:
· An error message appears onscreen during system bootup and requests you to
run the BIOS Setup.
· You have installed a new system component that requires further BIOS
settings or updates.
WARNING: Using inappropriate BIOS settings may result to system instability or boot failure. We strongly recommend that you change the BIOS settings only with the help of a trained service personnel.
Accessing BIOS
Restart your Notebook PC then press

DVD-ROM Drive Information
The DVD-ROM drive allows you to view and create your own CDs and DVDs. You can
purchase an optional DVD viewer software to view DVD titles.
NOTE: The DVD-ROM Drive is available on selected models.
Regional Playback Information
Playback of DVD movie titles involves decoding MPEG2 video, digital AC3 audio
and decryption of CSS protected content. CSS (sometimes called copy guard) is
the name given to the content protection scheme adopted by the motion picture
industry to satisfy a need to protect against unlawful content duplication.
Although the design rules imposed on CSS licensors are many, one rule that is
most relevant is playback restrictions on regionalized content. In order to
facilitate geographically staggered movie releases, DVD video titles are
released for specific geographic regions as defined in “Region Definitions”
below. Copyright laws require that all DVD movies be limited to a particular
region (usually coded to the region at which it is sold). While DVD movie
content may be released for multiple regions, CSS design rules require that
any system capable of playing CSS encrypted content must only be capable of
playing one region.
IMPORTANT! The region setting may be changed up to five times using the viewer
software, then it can only play DVD movies for the last region setting.
Changing the region code after that will require factory resetting which is
not covered by warranty. If resetting is desired, shipping and resetting costs
will be at the expense of the user.

Internal Modem Compliancy
The Notebook PC with internal modem model complies with JATE (Japan), FCC (US,
Canada, Korea, Taiwan), and CTR21. The internal modem has been approved in
accordance with Council Decision 98/482/EC for pan-European single terminal
connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN). However due to
differences between the individual PSTNs provided in different countries, the
approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful
operation on every PSTN network termination point. In the event of problems
you should contact your equipment supplier in the first instance.
Overview
On 4th August 1998 the European Council Decision regarding the CTR 21 has been
published in the Official Journal of the EC. The CTR 21 applies to all non
voice terminal equipment with DTMF-dialling which is intended to be connected
to the analogue PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network).
CTR 21 (Common Technical Regulation) for the attachment requirements for
connection to the analogue public switched telephone networks of terminal
equipment (excluding terminal equipment supporting the voice telephony
justified case service) in which network addressing, if provided, is by means
of dual tone multi-frequency signalling.

Network Compatibility Declaration
Statement to be made by the manufacturer to the Notified Body and the vendor:
“This declaration will indicate the networks with which the equipment is
designed to work and any notified networks with which the equipment may have
interworking difficulties.”
Statement to be made by the manufacturer to the user: “This declaration will
indicate the networks with which the equipment is designed to work and any
notified networks with which the equipment may have inter-working
difficulties. The manufacturer shall also associate a statement to make it
clear where network compatibility is dependent on physical and software switch
settings. It will also advise the user to contact the vendor if it is desired
to use the equipment on another network.”
Up to now the Notified Body of CETECOM issued several pan-European approvals
using CTR 21. The results are Europe’s first modems which do not require
regulatory approvals in each individual European country.
Non-Voice Equipment
Answering machines and loud-speaking telephones can be eligible as well as
modems, fax machines, auto-dialers and alarm systems. Equipment in which the
end-to-end quality of speech is controlled by regulations (e.g. handset
telephones and in some countries also cordless telephones) is excluded.

1 National requirements will apply only if the equipment may use pulse
dialling (manufacturers may state in the user guide that the equipment is only
intended to support DTMF signalling, which would make any additional testing
superfluous).
In The Netherlands additional testing is required for series connection and
caller ID facilities.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
·
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
·
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

·
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
·
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
WARNING! The use of a shielded-type power cord is required in order to meet
FCC emission limits and to prevent interference to the nearby radio and
television reception. It is essential that only the supplied power cord be
used. Use only shielded cables to connect I/O devices to this equipment. You
are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the
equipment.

Déclaration d’Industrie Canada relative à l’exposition aux ondes radio
Cet appareil est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux radiations d’Industrie
Canada définies pour un environnement non-contrôlé. Pour maintenir la
conformité avec les exigences d’exposition RF d’IC, veuillez éviter tout
contact direct avec l’antenne pendant l’émission. Les utilisateurs finaux
doivent suivre les instructions de fonctionnement spécifiques pour satisfaire
la conformité aux expositions RF.
Son utilisation est sujette aux deux conditions suivantes :
·
Cet appareil ne peut pas causer d’interférence, et
