Your guides
To help you use your Acer notebook, we have designed a set of guides:
First off, the Just for Starters…poster helps you get started with setting up your computer.
The printed Travel Mate Series Generic User Guide contains useful information applying to all models in the Travel Mate product series. It covers basic topics such as Acer’s Empowering Technology, using the keyboard, Audio, etc. Please understand that due to its nature, the Generic User Guide as well as the Acer System User’s Guide mentioned below will occasionally refer to functions or features which are only contained in certain models of the series, but not necessarily in the model you purchased. Such instances are marked in the text with language such as “only for certain models”.
The printed Quick Guide introduces you to the basic features and functions of your new computer. For more on how your computer can help you to be more productive, please refer to the Acer System User’s Guide.
This guide contains detailed information on such subjects as system utilities, data recovery, expansion options and troubleshooting. In addition it contains warranty information and the general regulations and safety notices for your notebook. It is available in Portable Document Format (PDF) and comes preloaded on your notebook. Follow these steps to access it:

Click on Start, All Programs, Acer System.
Click on Acer System User’s Guide.
