Connecting to the Internet

Your computer's wireless connection is turned on by default.

Windows will detect and display a list of available networks during setup.
Select your network and enter the password if required.

To turn your computer's Bluetooth or wireless connections on or off, press
to open Launch Manager.

Note: Click On to enable the wireless/Bluetooth connection. Click Off
to disable.

Otherwise, open Internet Explorer and follow the instructions. Please also
refer to your ISP or router documentation.

Acer Instant Connect

Instant Connect ensures a faster connection to any of the networks that
your computer connects to most frequently.

Power management

This computer has a built-in power management unit that monitors system
activity, such as activity involving one or more of the following devices:
keyboard, mouse, hard disk, peripherals connected to the computer, and
video memory. If no activity is detected for a period of time, the computer
stops some or all of these devices in order to conserve energy.

Acer Green Instant On

The Acer Green Instant On feature allows your computer to wake up from
Sleep mode in less than the time it takes to open the lid. When you close
the lid, or select Shut Down > Sleep from the Start menu, your computer
enters Sleep mode. While the computer is in Sleep mode, the power
indicator LED will flash orange.

After a certain amount of time in Sleep mode, the computer will
automatically enter Deep Sleep to preserve battery life. When the
computer is in Deep Sleep, the power indicator LED will be turned off. In
this state, battery life lasts up to 80 days.

Open the lid or press any key to wake your computer up from Deep Sleep
or Sleep mode.
