already made the necessary settings for your computer optimal operation. Refer
to Chapter 6 on running the SETUP program later.
After the test has completed, your computer will start to search and boot up
the operating system from your hard drive. The notebook computer normally
comes with a Windows operating system pre-installed in your hard drive.
2.4 Adjusting the Display Controls
The LCD brightness adjustment is controlled by <Fn> +<F8> and <Fn> +
<F9>
keys respectively. You need to press these hot-key controls after
powering on your notebook to suit your viewing pleasure.
The Brightness hot-key control adjusts the brightness on the LCD. The
brightness hot-key control will not set the LCD completely dark or bright; it
provides sufficient lighting to the LCD to match the external lighting of the
surrounding. The brighter the room, the more you need to increase the
brightness of the LCD.
2.5 Turning off Your Computer
If you are not going to use the computer for a while, it is best to turn off the
power of the computer. Before turning off the power, you need to first close all
application programs and shut down the operating system.
After turning off the computer, make it a habit to leave the LCD panel open
for a while whenever used for an extended period of time. This allows the
inside parts of the computer to cool off. Closing the panel will force the heat
up against the LCD screen, which may degrade the LCD when done regularly.
More importantly, never close the LCD panel for a long period of time when
computer is on and power saving features are disabled.
