To remove a disk, do the following:
1.
Check the LED display and make sure that the computer is not accessing the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM/Combo
Drive.
Push the eject button and pull the tray all the way out.
Carefully pick up the CD disk by the edges and – while pressing down on the center ring – remove the CD-
ROM/DVD-ROM/Combo from the tray.
Do not insert any foreign objects into the disc tray. If you experience difficulty when ejecting the CD
disk tray, stretch a paper clip (or use a pin or a thin metal rod) and insert it into the emergency eject
hole located on the right side of the front panel. The CD disk tray should eject immediately. This
procedure can also be used to remove a CD from the drive when the Notebook is powered off.
Power Saving Modes
This section contains information on the Notebook’s power system, including the AC Adapter, the battery system,
recharging the battery, and tips for conserving battery power.
The power system is comprised of two parts, the AC Adapter and the battery system. The AC Adapter converts
AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the computer.
The Battery Power System
A fully charged pack will provide approximately 2 hours of battery life depending on your system configuration
application it runs. Before using the computer on battery power for the first time, check the battery status icon on
the Windows Toolbar to make sure the battery is fully charged.
See Battery Status later in this section for a description and explanation of the Windows Battery icon. Charging
the battery takes about 3 hours to charge when the system is in off state. If possible, always charge the battery
completely.
