CHAPTER 3: Setting Up and Getting Started

4 When you finish using your notebook for the first

time, turn off your notebook and leave your

notebook connected to AC power until the

battery charge indicator turns blue.

Protecting from power source problems

During a power surge, the voltage level of electricity

coming into your notebook can increase to levels far

above normal levels and cause data loss or system

damage. Protect your notebook and peripheral

devices by connecting them to a

surge protector

which absorbs voltage surges and prevents them from

reaching your notebook.

Connecting to a

broadband modem or

network

Your notebook has a network jack that you can use

to connect to a cable or DSL modem or to a wired

Ethernet network.

Important

If the battery charge indicator does not turn blue after

three hours, contact Gateway Customer Care at the location

shown on the Customer Care label. For more information, see

Warning

High voltages can enter your notebook through both the

power cord and the modem connection. To protect your notebook

and avoid electrical shock, use a surge protector. If you have a

telephone modem, use a surge protector that has a modem jack. If

you have a cable modem, use a surge protector that has an

antenna/cable TV jack. During an electrical storm, unplug both the

surge protector and the modem.
