Locatethe2batteryclips(Shown as1&2)andclip themin
oppositedirections.Clip1willstaylocked;clip2needsto beheld
in the open position. Locate the gap (circled) and use it to lift the

continueuntilthebattery iscompletelyoutofthe bay.Ensureto
store the units battery in a safe and secure place so that it does not
get damaged.
1.3 Connecting the AC adaptor
Connect the AC adaptor when you need to charge the battery or
want to operate using direct power. If the notebook is new and has
not been used the battery pack will need to be charged before you
canoperateusingbatterypowerexclusively.
The AC adaptor can be connected to any power source supplying
from100to240voltsand50or60hertz.ThisallowstheACAdaptor
to work in most countries and regions.
It is recommended to use only the AC Adaptor supplied with the
UltraThinandanyACAdaptorapprovedbythesupplier.Usingany
other adaptor could cause damage or malfunction and might result
in injury.

1.4 The LCD panel
The display panel can be opened at almost any angle for an optimal
display, depending on the hinges of the LCD.
While holding down the palm rest with one hand so that the
notebook does not lift with the panel, lift the display panel itself and
adjustthetiltuntiltheviewingangleiscomfortable.
Use extreme care when opening and closing the LCD display
panel. Opening it too fast or slamming it closed could damage
the panel or notebook.
Do not open the panel too far as this could stress or damage
the hinges and loosen the panel, as it has no retaining latch and
it relies on the hinges to remain closed and open.
Donotpressorpush onthepanelor panelcoverasitcould
cause damage to the panel.
Do not lift the notebook using the panel and do not put anything
in between the panel and the keyboard when closing the panel.
When opening or closing the display panel, place one hand on
the palm rest to hold the computer in place and use the other
hand to slowly open or close the display panel (Do not use
excessiveforcewhenopeningorclosingthedisplaypanel)
