LCD
Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the computer, the
brightness of the LCD screen will deteriorate. This is an intrinsic
characteristic of LCD technology. Maximum brightness is only available
when operating in AC power mode. The screen will dim when the computer
is operated on battery power and you may not be able to increase the
brightness of the screen.
Central Processing Unit (“CPU”) Performance Disclaimer:
CPU performance in your computer product may vary from specifications
under the following conditions:
■
use of certain external peripheral products
■
use of battery power instead of AC power
■ use of certain multimedia, computer generated graphics or video
applications
■ use of standard telephone lines or low speed network connections
■ use of complex modeling software, such as high end computer aided
design applications
■ use of several applications or functionalities simultaneously
■ use of computer in areas with low air pressure (high altitude > 1,000
meters or > 3,280 feet above sea level)
■
use of computer at temperatures outside the range of 5 ºC to 30 ºC (41ºF
to 86 ºF) or > 25 ºC (77 ºF) at high altitude (all temperature references
are approximate and may vary depending on the specific computer
model).
CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design
configuration.
Under some conditions, your computer product may automatically shut-
down.
This is a normal protective feature designed to reduce the risk of lost data
or damage to the product when used outside recommended conditions.
To avoid risk of lost data, always make back-up copies of data by

more information.
Graphics Processing Unit (“GPU”) Performance Disclaimer:
The graphics processing unit ("GPU") performance may vary depending on
product model, design configuration, applications, power management
settings and features utilized.
GPU performance is only optimized when operating in AC power mode and
may decrease considerably when operating in battery power mode.
