8 of 72
The Notebook is not intended for use by companies in the heavy
industry sector.
To avoid damage from lightning strikes, do not operate the
Notebook during thunderstorms.
Do not place any objects on top of the Notebook and do not exert
pressure on the display. Otherwise, there is a risk that the display
may break.
If the screen breaks, there is a danger of injury. If this happens, pick
up the shattered pieces wearing protective gloves and send them
to your service centre for professional disposal. Finally, wash your
hands with soap, as the pieces may have been contaminated with
chemicals.
Do not fold the display back by an angle of more than 120°.
Exceeding this value may damage the housing or the Notebook.
Always hold the display firmly by the middle when folding it back,
adjusting the position and closing it. Failure to do so may damage
the display. Never use force to open the display.
To avoid damaging the screen, do not touch it with fingers or
sharp objects.

9 of 72
2.3. Never Carry Out Repairs Yourself
WARNING!
Never try to open or repair the device yourself. There is a
risk of electric shock.
If there is a fault, contact the Medion Service Center or other
suitable specialist workshop.
2.4. Data Backup
CAUTION!
Back up your data on external storage media before
each update. We do not accept any liability for claims for
compensation arising from loss of data or any consequential
loss or damage.
2.5. Setup Location
Keep your Notebook and all connected devices away from
moisture and avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight. Non-compliance
with these instructions can lead to faults or damage to the
Notebook.
Do not use the Notebook outdoors because external elements,
such as rain, snow, etc., could damage it.
Set up and operate all components on a stable, level and vibration-
free surface to prevent the Notebook from falling down.
Do not operate the Notebook or power adaptor for long periods
on your lap or any other body part as the heat dissipation on the
underside can result in uncomfortable overheating.

unavoidable but totally harmless smell, which wears off with time.
Ventilate the room regularly to prevent odour build-up.
This device is not suitable for use with VDU workstations.
10 of 72
2.6. Environmental Requirements
The Notebook is most reliably operated at an ambient temperature
between 5° C (+41° F) and 30° C (+86° F) and at a relative humidity
between 20% and 80% (without condensation).
When powered off, the Notebook can be stored at temperatures
between 0° C and 60° C (+32° F and 140° F).
During a thunderstorm, disconnect the mains plug and the
antenna plug. For extra safety, we recommend using an
overvoltage protection device to prevent the Notebook from
sustaining damage as a result of power surges or lightning strikes.
After transporting the Notebook, wait until the device has reached
room temperature before switching it on. Large changes in
temperature or fluctuations in humidity can cause moisture build-
up within the Notebook due to condensation. This can cause an
electrical short circuit.
Keep the original packaging in the event the device needs to be
sent in the post.
2.7. Ergonomics
PLEASE NOTE!
Avoid dazzle, reflections and strong bright-dark contrast in
order to protect your eyes
.
The Notebook should never be placed next to a window because this is the
brightest part of the room in daylight. This brightness can make it more difficult for
the eyes to adjust to the darker display. The Notebook should always be positioned
so that the direction of vision is parallel to the window front.
Setting up the Notebook with your back to the window is incorrect as reflections
from the bright window on the screen will then be unavoidable. A position looking
onto the window is also incorrect as the contrast between the dark screen and the
bright daylight can cause problems for the eyes to adjust and result in problems.
The parallel line of vision should also be maintained in relation to artificial lighting
equipment.
In other words, the same criteria and principles apply where the workspace is
illuminated with artificial light. Where space restrictions make it impossible to
set up the screen as described, then correct positioning (rotating, tilting) of the
Notebook/screen can prevent dazzling, reflections and excessive bright-dark
contrast, etc.
11 of 72
In many cases, an improvement can also be achieved by using slats or vertical
blinds on the windows, partition walls or by changing the artificial lighting
equipment.
2.8. Connecting
Follow the instructions below to connect your Notebook correctly
and safely:
2.8.1. Power Supply
DANGER!
Do not open the housing of the mains adapter. There is a
risk of electric shock when the housing is open. It does not
contain any parts requiring maintenance.
The socket outlet must be close to the Notebook and easily accessi-
ble.
To disconnect the power supply from your Notebook (via the
mains adaptor), pull the mains plug from the power outlet.
Plug the Notebook’s mains adapter into AC 100–240 V~, 50/60 Hz
earthed sockets only. If you are not sure about the power supply at
the set-up location, please ask your power supplier.
Use only the mains adapter and power cable supplied.
For extra safety, we recommend using an overvoltage protection
device to prevent your Notebook from sustaining damage as a
result of power surges or lightning strikes.
If you want to disconnect the adapter from the mains, pull the
connector out of the wall socket first and then out of the socket
on the Notebook. The mains adapter or the Notebook may be
damaged if this process is carried out in the reverse order. Always
take hold of the plug when disconnecting the cable from the
socket. Never pull on the cable.
12 of 72
2.9. Cabling
Position the cables so that they cannot be stepped on or tripped
over.
To avoid damaging the cables, do not place any objects on them.
Do not connect peripheral devices – such as keyboards, mouse
and monitor, etc. – when the Notebook is switched on to avoid
damage to the Notebook or the devices. Some devices may also
be connected while the computer is running. This is generally the
case for devices with a USB connection. In all cases, observe the
relevant operating instructions.
Maintain a distance of at least one metre from sources of high-
frequency and magnetic interference (TV sets, loudspeakers,
mobile phones, DECT telephones, etc.) in order to avoid
malfunctions and data loss.
Please note that only shielded cables that are shorter than 3
metres may be connected to the external interfaces of this
Notebook. Please only use double-shielded cables for printer cable
connections.
Do not exchange the supplied cable for another one. Use only
the supplied cable as this cable has been extensively tested in our
laboratory.
In addition, when connecting your peripherals only use the
connecting cables supplied with those devices.
Ensure that all connection cables are connected to their
corresponding peripheral device to avoid any interference
radiation. Disconnect any cables that are not required.
The only devices which may be connected to the Notebook are
those that meet the requirements set out in the EN60950 standard
“Information Technology Equipment – Safety or devices that
meet the EN60065 standard Audio, video and similar electronic
apparatus – Safety requirements”.

closing it. Failure to do so may damage the display. Never use force to open the
display.
PLEASE NOTE!
When first operating your Notebook please ensure that the battery
is inserted and the mains adapter is connected. This is required for
Windows® 8 to correctly work out the Windows® 8 performance index.
Switch the Notebook on by pressing the on/off switch (10). The Notebook will
now start and run through various steps.
PLEASE NOTE!
There should be no bootable disk (e.g. the recovery disc) in the optical
drive as this will prevent the operating system from being loaded from
the hard drive.
19 of 72
The operating system will be loaded from the hard drive. The loading process takes
a little longer during the initial setup. Once all the necessary data has been entered,
the operating system will be set up. The operating system is fully loaded once the
Windows
®
8 start-up screen appears.
PLEASE NOTE!
The initial installation may take a few minutes. Do not unplug the
Notebook from the mains or switch it off during the initial installation.
This may adversely affect the installation. Do not switch off the
Notebook until after the installation has been completed successfully
and the startup screen appears.
6. Power Supply
6.1. On/Off Switch
Open the Notebook and hold the on/off switch down briefly to switch the
Notebook on or off.
20 of 72
The operating light indicates the current operating mode. Regardless of the
operating system, the Notebook will switch off if the switch is held down for longer

CAUTION!
Do not switch your Notebook off while the hard drive or optical
drive is being accessed. Otherwise data may be lost. To protect
the hard drive, you should always wait for 5 seconds after
switching off the Notebook before switching it back on again
.
6.2. Mains Power
Your Notebook comes with a universal mains adapter for alternating current which
automatically adapts to the available power source. The following values are
supported: AC 100–240 V~/50–60Hz. Observe the safety information concerning
the power supply on pages 12 ff.
The adapter is connected to an AC outlet via a mains cable. The mains adapter DC
cable is connected to the left side of the Notebook (17).
The adapter has an on/off switch (optional). When the switch is set to OFF (0), no
power is being consumed and no power is being supplied to the Notebook.
The adapter supplies the Notebook with power in the ON position (I) and also
charges the battery. The operating lights on the Notebook provide information
about the operating mode. Your battery will also be charged while you work
on your Notebook with the mains adapter connected. The mains adapter also
consumes power when the Notebook is not connected to it. You should therefore
always remove the mains adapter plug from the socket when it is not connected to
the Notebook or move the switch to the OFF (0) position.
CAUTION!
Use only the mains adapter and power cable supplied
.
6.2.1. Starting the Notebook
Open up the display as described above and press the on/off switch.
Follow the instructions on the screen. Step-by-step instructions will guide you
through the process to be followed.

9. The Hard Drive
The hard drive is your main memory medium and combines high storage capacity
with rapid data access. You Notebook is supplied with an OEM version
*
* of the
Microsoft Windows
®
8 operating system which supports all of the Notebooks
performance features. We have configured your Notebooks hard drive so that you
will be able to work with it optimally without having to install any additional drivers
yourself. The Windows
®
8 operating system requires part of the capacity to manage
the hard drive therefore the hard drive’s full capacity is not available. This explains
any differences between the UEFI firmware configuration and the operating system
display. The Notebook’s operating system, other applications and security data are
located on the hard drive meaning that the full capacity is already reduced.
The first partition (C:\) contains the operating system, the applications and the
“Documents” folder for the configured user.
The second partition (D:\) is used for the data backup and also contains drivers
(D:\Drivers) and utilities (D:\Tools) for your Notebook.
CAUTION!
The startup files for system restoration „Resetting the Notebook
to its Factory Settings“ and the Windows
®
8 installation files are
located in non-rewritable partitions. These partitions cannot
be deleted.
**
Original equipment manufacturer/program versions purchased from the manufacturer which are usu-
ally sold in conjunction with end devices

9.1. Important Directories
We have listed the most important directories below and described their contents.
CAUTION!
Do not delete or modify these directories or their content
otherwise data may be lost or system functionality may be
impaired.
C:\
The C: drive root directory contains important files required for Windows® 8 startup.
On delivery these files are hidden for security reasons.
C:\Programs
As the name suggests, software programs install the files required for running the
application into this directory.
C:\Windows
The main Windows ®
8
directory. The operating system saves its files here.
D:\Drivers
You will find all the (preinstalled) drivers required for your Notebook in this folder.
D:\Tools
Here you will find the utility programs for your Notebook.

10. The Optical Drive
10.1. Inserting a Disc
Unlike optical drives on a desktop PC, the Notebook uses a mount to hold the disc.
When inserting the disc ensure that it is pressed into the mount correctly and that
it clicks into position there.
PLEASE NOTE!
Do not stick protective film or other adhesive labels to the disc.
To prevent damage to your drive, do not use any deformed or
damaged discs.
CAUTION!
Do not use scratched, broken, dirty or poor quality discs. The
high speeds in the drive can cause these to break destroying
your data and damaging your device. Inspect discs carefully
before inserting them. If damage or dirt is visible, do not use
the disc. Damage caused by faulty media is not covered under
warranty and repairs will be chargeable.
Incorrectly positioning the disc in the mount can cause it to be
damaged when closing the drive drawer.
With the device switched on, press the eject button on the optical drive to open
the drawer.
Carefully pull the drawer out fully.
Remove the disc from its case, where possible without touching the unprinted
side.
Insert the disc into the drawer with the label up and carefully press it down. The
disc now lies flat in the drawer and audibly clicks onto the disc mount.
Check that the disc can turn freely and then carefully slide the drawer back into
the optical drive until it clicks into place.
On delivery, your optical drive is assigned the drive letter E. You can easily
access the data on your discs using Windows Explorer (Computer). Run
Windows Explorer using the shortcut on the taskbar or by simultaneously
pressing the Windows key and the E key. When accessing DVD videos (or audio
and video files on conventional data CDs), the preinstalled media player is used
automatically.
If you wish to remove a disc, press the eject button.
35 of 72
CAUTION!
Do not try to remove the disc from the drive while the
Notebook is accessing the optical drive.
10.1.1. Emergency Release of a Blocked Disc
In the event of the drawer no longer opening automatically, it can be opened
manually providing your device has an emergency eject hole.
Exit Windows
®
8 and switch off the Notebook.
Insert a long pointed object (e.g. straightened paperclip) into the emergency
release until you feel some resistance.
A slight push now opens the drawer.
Remove the disc and restart the Notebook.
10.2. Playing/Reading Discs
Your optical drive is capable of playing audio CDs, DVD films or data CDs/DVDs.
Once a disc has been loaded, a dialogue box opens containing various playback
options. Normally, there will be a number of different options available.
If the dialogue box does not open, there is always the option of accessing the
optical drive via Explorer.
10.3. Regional Playback Information for DVDs
Playback of DVD film titles includes decoding MPEG2 video, digital AC3 audio
data and decoding CSS-protected content. CSS (sometimes also referred to as
Copy Guard) is the name of a data protection program used by the film industry to
protect against illegal copying.
Among the many controls for CSS licensees, the most important of the playback
restrictions involve country-specific content.
To make it easier to create geographically separate film releases, DVD titles are
coded for specific regions. Copyright laws required that each DVD film be limited to
a specific region (usually the region where it is sold).
DVD film versions can be published in multiple regions but CSS rules require that
each CSS decoder system may only be used for one region.
PLEASE NOTE!
The region setting can be changed up to five times
via the
viewing software before the last setting becomes permanent.
If you then wish to change the region setting again, this
must be carried out by the manufacturer. Any shipping and
configuration costs must be borne by the user.

10.4. Issues Relevant to the Burner
This section only concerns devices supplied with a CD-RW, a combination CD/DVD
read drive or a DVD-RW drive. First some information about blank discs
10.4.1. Blank CDs and DVDs
Normal CDs are pressed by a glass master and then sealed. With blank discs, digital
information is burned onto them using the drive’s laser. They are therefore more
sensitive then conventional discs.
Because of this, it is essential to avoid, particularly in the case of unused blanks:
exposure to direct sunlight (UVA/UVB radiation)
scratches and damage
• extreme temperatures
37 of 72
11. The Sound System
11.1. External Audio Connections
Your Notebook has an integrated stereo speaker so you can always reproduce
sound without additional devices. Using the external connections provides you
with an ideal opportunity to connect your Notebook to external devices.
The Fn + 11 and Fn + 12 keyboard shortcut enables you to adjust the volume.
WARNING!
Listening to a device at high volumes for an extended
period via headphones/earphones can damage your
hearing. Excessive volume when using headphones or
earphones can damage your hearing. Before pressing
play, set the volume to the lowest setting. Start playback
and increase the volume to a comfortable level. Changing
the basic settings of the equaliser can also increase the
volume and thus cause permanent damage to your
hearing. Changing the drivers, software, equaliser,
operating system, etc., can also lead to an increase in
the volume and thus cause permanent damage to your
hearing.
Audio output /
Headset connection

For sound playback via external stereo devices such
as (active) speakers or headphones/headset, as well
as for speech recording via an external recording
device/headset.
38 of 72
12. Network Operation
12.1. What is a Network?
We talk about a network when multiple computers are directly connected to one
another. This allows users to transfer information and data with one another and to
share their resources (printers and drives).
Here are a few concrete examples:
In an office, messages are exchanged by e-mail and appointments are managed
centrally.
Users share one printer on the network and back up their data to a central
computer (server).
Two or more computers are connected to one another to play network games or
exchange data.
12.1.1. Network Connection (RJ45)
Connect one end of a cable with a RJ45 connection (western jack) to your
Notebook’s network interface (19) and the other to a different computer or hub/
switch. You can find more details about the network in the Windows® 8 help.
12.2. Wireless LAN (Wireless Network)
Wireless LAN is an optional feature. This function enables you to establish a network
connection to a corresponding remote station. Please read about the necessary
requirements.
The wireless LAN function is enabled and disabled via the Windows
®
8 menu and is
activated by default.
CAUTION!
Do not operate the WLAN function in locations (e.g.: hospitals,
planes, etc.) where there is sensitive equipment. Do not switch
the device unless you are sure it will cause no interference.
39 of 72
12.2.1. Requirements
A so-called WLAN access point may be used as a remote station. A WLAN access
point is a radio transmitting device that communicates with your Notebook and
controls access to the connected network.
WLAN access points are frequently found in large offices, airports, train stations,
universities or Internet cafés. They provide access to particular services and
networks or to the Internet.
Access permissions are generally necessary and often result in usage charges.
Access points often have built-in DSL modems. These so-called routers establish the
connection to the existing DSL Internet connection and the wireless LAN.
A connection can also be established to another end device with wireless LAN
functionality without an access point. Without a router, however, the network is
restricted to those devices directly connected to it.
The wireless network connection works in accordance with the IEEE 802.11n
*
standard and is compatible with the IEEE 802.11b/g standard.
If encryption is used for the transfer, the same procedure must be used for all
devices. Encryption is a procedure to protect the network from unauthorised
access.
The transfer speed can vary depending on the distance and the number of users
accessing the remote station.
* To make use of the full performance, a WLAN router compatible with the 802.11n
standard is required.
40 of 72
12.3. Bluetooth
Bluetooth technology is used to wirelessly bridge short distances. Bluetooth
devices transfer data via radio so that computers, mobile phones, printers,
keyboards, mice and other devices can communicate with one another wirelessly.
Bluetooth wireless technology has numerous possible applications. A few of them
are listed below:
Creating a wireless Internet connection using a mobile phone.
Transferring files between computers or between a computer and another
device.
Printing using a Bluetooth printer.
Using a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
Connecting to a PAN (Personal Area Network).
Synchronising a personal digital assistant (PDA) with a computer or other device
that uses Bluetooth.
The Bluetooth wireless technology data transfer speed can vary depending on
the device or environmental factors. Data can be transferred through walls, jacket
pockets and briefcases using a Bluetooth device. The transfer between Bluetooth
devices occurs at the high frequency of 2.4 Gigahertz (GHz). For Bluetooth high
speed data transfer, WLAN must be enabled and the partner station must also
support the high speed mode.
CAUTION!
Do not operate the Bluetooth function in locations (e.g.:
hospitals, aeroplanes, etc.) where there is sensitive equipment.
Do not switch the device unless you are sure it will cause no
interference.
12.4. Flight Mode
In flight mode, all wireless connections (e.g. WLAN, Bluetooth) are disabled. Flight
mode is disabled by default to ensure that all wireless connections are available.
Move the mouse pointer into the top right or bottom corner of the display and
click Settings.
Next, click Change PC settings.
Click Wireless.
Now enable or disable Flight mode here. Alternatively, use the Fn +
keyboard shortcut to open flight mode.
Once flight mode is enabled, a small aeroplane is displayed in the traditional
desktop task bar. You can also enable/disable flight mode by clicking this icon.
41 of 72
13. The multi-Card Reader
Memory cards are media that are used, e.g. in the field of digital photography, and
are gradually replacing the diskette. The shape and capacity of a memory card can
vary depending on the manufacturer.
Your Notebook supports the following formats:
• MMC (MultiMediaCard)
SD (Secure Digital), SDHC, SDXC
When inserting the memory cards, ensure that the contacts are pointing in the right
direction, as specified in the list below. Inserting a card incorrectly may damage the
card reader and/or the card.
Card Type Connection Contacts
SD (Secure Digital) pointing downwards
MMC (MultiMediaCard) pointing downwards
13.1. Inserting a Memory Card
PLEASE NOTE!
The memory cards can only be inserted in one direction. Please observe
the instructions in the section above.
Slide the card in as far as it will go.
13.2. Removing Memory Cards
To remove SD/MMC cards, first push these into the socket to release the safety
catch.
Now pull the card out of the slot and store it properly.
14. The Webcam
The integrated webcam enables the use of various communication services.
42 of 72
15. The Universal Serial Bus Port
The universal serial bus (USB 1.1 and USB 2.0) is a standard for connecting input
devices, scanners and other peripherals. Up to 127 devices can be connected to the
USB ports via a single cable.
The USB 3.0 ports are fully backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1.
Your Notebook has 2 USB 3.0 connection sockets (21 ) and (22) ( optional) and
2 USB 2.0 connection sockets (20).
PLEASE NOTE!
Where possible, always connect your USB devices to the same port that
they were originally installed on. Otherwise they will be assigned a new
ID and the drivers will need to be reinstalled.
15.1. Charging function for Compatible Mobile Phones
(optional)
You can use the USB 3.0 port on the left side of the Notebook (22) to charge a
compatible mobile phone (5 volts max. 1.5A)
The charging function is available in sleep mode and when the Notebook is

battery power.
43 of 72
16. Securing Your Notebook
Your new Notebook has software and hardware solutions for preventing
unauthorised access.
16.1. Password Setting (Power-on)
You can protect your Notebook against unauthorised use with a power-on
password. On switching on the Notebook, a password prompt will appear on the
screen. The password is set up in the UEFI firmware configuration.
CAUTION!
Keep your password in a safe place. If you forget your
password, you have no way of deleting it. If this happens,
contact your service centre.
You can also use the Windows
®
8 security options to protect your data against
unauthorised access.
16.2. Kensington Security Lock
you can use a so-called Kensington security lock to protect your Notebook against
theft. This security lock (complete with cable) is usually available as an accessory in
specialist retailers.
To attach the security lock, wind the cable around a stationery object, e.g. a table
leg. Plug the lock into the Kensington device and turn the key to lock it.
Keep the key in a safe place.
44 of 72
17. Software
This section deals with the subject of software. We distinguish here between the
operating system, the software (the applications), the Windows activation and
the UEFI firmware configuration.
PLEASE NOTE!
The current Windows family currently includes Windows 8 and Windows
8.1. Windows 8.1 is the first update of the Windows 8 generation.
17.1. Getting to Know Windows
®
8
Windows
®
8, the new operating system from Microsoft, contains a series of
innovative functions and new technologies that your Notebook uses to work
quickly and reliably. At the same time, it is also designed to be easy to use.
17.2. Windows Activation
To protect against software piracy, Microsoft has introduced product activation. The
Windows
®
8 version installed on your Notebook and supplied with the Notebook
must be activated to enable you to use of all Windows
®
8 functions.
To do this, you require simply an Internet connection. The activation process is fully
automatic; no personal data will be transmitted.
If no Internet connection is available, select telephone activation as follows:
Move the mouse pointer into the top right or bottom corner of the display and
click Settings.
Next, click Change PC settings.
Select the Activate Windows item.
Now click Activate by phone.
Click Next after choosing your country.
Call one of the specified hotlines on the telephone and read out the column of
figures displayed when prompted to do so.
You will then be given a confirmation ID over the telephone.
Enter this in the empty field and click Activate.
PLEASE NOTE!
If you have not activated Windows® 8, not all functions will be available
to you under PC settings. A watermark will also continue to be displayed
at the bottom right on the traditional desktop.
45 of 72
17.3. Windows
®
8 – Whats New
17.3.1. Microsoft Account
A Microsoft account is an e-mail address and password for logging in to Windows
®
8. You can use any e-mail address. We recommend using the address you use to
communicate with friends and log into your favourite web sites, however.
The Microsoft account also allows you to purchase or download apps from the
Store and install them on up to five devices.
Once you have logged on to your Notebook using a Microsoft account, you also
have access to the various services and programs provided by Microsoft.
The contact information and status updates for your friends from services such
as Hotmail, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn will be updated automatically as
soon as you run these services using your Microsoft account.
You can also access and share your photos, documents and other files via
SkyDrive, Facebook and Flickr.
Your personal settings, including designs, language settings, Internet favourites
and apps will be synchronised with each PC running Windows
®
8 that you log on
to.
You can obtain Apps from the Windows
®
8 Store. You can use these on any PC
running Windows
®
8 that you log on to.
If you wish to create a Microsoft account in Windows
®
8, proceed as follows:
Move the mouse pointer into the top right or bottom corner of the screen and
click Settings.
Click Change PC settings. > Users > Switch to a Microsoft account.
46 of 72
17.3.2. Taskbar (Desktop Mode)
You can start programs from the taskbar at the bottom of the screen and switch
between programs already running. In Windows® 8 you can place any program
onto the taskbar, so that you can always open it with a single click. You can also
rearrange the icons on the taskbar by simply clicking on them and dragging them
to the desired position. Move the mouse pointer over the icons and thumbnails of
each file or each open window and that program will be displayed. If you move the
mouse pointer over the thumbnail, a full screen preview of the window in question
appears. When you move the mouse pointer away from the thumbnail again, the
full screen preview closes.
17.3.3. Jump Lists
Jump lists offer a practical way of calling up recently opened files. To display the
recently used files, simply right-click on the application icon in the taskbar. Thus if
you right-click on the Word icon, the recently used Word documents are displayed.
You can also easily place other files you wish to have easily to hand in the jump list
so that they are always displayed. This allows you to access documents that you use
frequently in just a few mouse clicks.
The jump lists for certain programs such as Windows
®
8 Media Player can be
populated in advance with frequently used commands. Thus, for example, you
will see options to play all music or to reopen the last playlist in the jump list for
Windows
®
8 Media Player.
The frequently visited and last visited websites are displayed in the jump list for
Internet Explorer. This therefore allows you to quickly access commands for certain
programs that could previously only be called up from the program itself, such as
the command to compose a new e-mail message.
17.3.4. Improved Desktop
Windows
®
8 simplifies working with windows on the desktop. You therefore have
more intuitive options for opening and closing, changing sizes and rearranging.
Windows
®
8 makes completing everyday tasks even simpler. The locking function
(snaps) makes it easier to compare two open windows, for example. You do not
need to manually adjust the size of the opened windows to make a comparison.
Simply drag the window to one of the screen margins using the mouse and it will
fill half of the screen.
Click the window’s title bar, “shake it and all other opened windows are displayed
as icons on the task bar. “Shake” the window once more and the other windows are
displayed again.
47 of 72
17.3.5. Improved Device Management
Windows
®
8 allows you to connect, manage and use all devices via the central
“Devices” function.
All devices are shown in a central location.
With the new “Device Stage” technology, however, Windows® 8 goes one step
further with device management. Device Stage helps you to use all compatible
devices that are connected to the computer. Thanks to Device Stage you can now
display the device status and perform frequently used commands within a single
window. Here you will even find images of the devices so you can easily see which
devices are connected. The device manufacturers can even adjust Device Stage. For
example, if your camera manufacturer releases an updated version of Device Stage,
you can see details such as the number of photos on the camera and get links to
useful information when you connect the camera to your Notebook.
17.3.6. Home Group
With home network groups, a Windows
®
8 function, connecting home computers
becomes child’s play. A home network group is set up automatically when you
connect the first PC running Windows
®
8 to the home network. Adding additional
PC’s running Windows
®
8 to the home network group can be done very quickly.
You can specify precisely what should be shared on each PC with all other PCs in
the home network group. Sharing files on the various home PCs – and on many
other devices – is then as easy as if all the data were located on a single hard drive.
Thus, you can save digital photos on the computer in the study and then access
them easily on a Notebook in any other room. Similarly, the printer in the study is
automatically shared among all PCs in the house once they are part of the home
network group.
17.4. Overview
The greatest innovation with Windows
®
8 is the Start screen.
This key element replaces the Start menu in Windows
®

19. FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to install the discs supplied?
No All programs are preinstalled. The discs are provided as backup copies
only.
Where can I find the necessary drivers for my Notebook?
The drivers can be found in the second hard drive partition in the
Drivers and Tools folders.
What is Windows
®
8 activation?
You will find a relevant section in these operating instructions containing
detailed information on this topic.
How do I activate Windows
®
8?
Windows
®
8 is activated automatically as soon as an Internet connection is
established.
How do I activate Windows
®
8 without an Internet connection?
Windows
®
8 can also be activated over the telephone. Follow the instructions
in the section “„Windows Activation“ to activate Windows
®
8 by telephone.
When is restoring factory settings recommended?
This method should only be selected as a last resort. Read about the
alternatives in the System recovery section.
How do I perform a data backup?
Perform a backup or backup synchronisation of selected data onto external
media to familiarise yourself with the technology. A backup is of no use if
you are unable to recover the data or if the medium is faulty or is no longer
available.
Why do I need to reinstall my USB device even though I have already done it?
If the device is not operated on the same USB port as the one it was installed
in, it automatically receives a new identifier. The operating system then treats
it like a new device and tries to reinstall it.
Use the installed driver or connect the device to the port on which it was
originally installed.

20. Customer Service
20.1. What To Do In Case of Hardware Problems
Malfunctions can sometimes have quite trivial causes, but they may also be the
result of defective components. We have included a brief troubleshooting guide
below which may help to solve any problems.
If these tips don’t do the trick, then we’ll be more than pleased to assist you. Just
give us a call!
20.2. Find The Cause
Start by carefully checking all the cable connections. If the indicator lamps are
not on, ensure that the Notebook and all peripheral devices are connected to the
power supply.
If you are in battery mode, connect the Notebook to the mains adapter and
check that the battery is charged.
If you wish to operate the Notebook using the mains adapter, disconnect the
mains adapter from the socket and connect an electrical appliance such as a
lamp to the same socket to test it. If the lamp does not work either, seek the
advice of an electrician.
Turn off the Notebook and check all cable connections. If the Notebook is
connected to peripheral devices, check all cable connections. Do not swap
around the cables for the various devices, even if they look alike. The pin
assignment within the cables may be different. Once you have ensured that the
devices power supply is functioning and all connections are intact, then switch
the Notebook back on.
61 of 72
20.2.1. Faults and Possible Causes

20.3. Do You Need More Help?
You’ve checked through the suggestions in the previous section and you’re still
having problems with your device? Then call our hotline or contact us at www.
medion.com. We’ll be glad to help you.
Before contacting your technology centre, however, prepare the following
information:
Have you made any upgrades or modifications to the initial configuration?
What peripheral devices do you use?

What software were you using when the problem occurred?
What steps have you already taken to try and rectify the problem?
20.4. Driver Support
The system has been thoroughly and successfully tested with the installed drivers
in our test laboratory. It is normal in the computer sector, however, for the drivers
to need updating from time to time. This is because there may be compatibility
problems with other components (programs, devices) which have not yet been
tested. You can find current drivers on the Internet at the following address:
http://www.medion.com
Please use the service address for the country where the device was purchased.
63 of 72
20.5. Transport
Please note the following information if you wish to transport the Notebook:
Switch the Notebook off. This ensures that the hard drive heads are
automatically moved to a safe area to avoid damage. Remove any inserted
DVDs/CDs.
After transporting the Notebook, wait until the appliance has reached
room temperature before switching it on. Large changes in temperature or
fluctuations in humidity can cause moisture build-up within the Notebook due
to condensation. This can cause an electrical short circuit.
Close the Notebook and check that the lid is firmly closed.
Always use a Notebook carrying case to protect the Notebook from dirt,
moisture, vibrations and scratches.
Always use the original cardboard packaging to ship your Notebook and obtain
advice on this from your carrier.
Always charge your battery and any spare batteries fully before embarking on
longer trips and do not forget to take along your mains adapter.
Find out about the power and communication options available in your
destination before travelling.
Where necessary, purchase the required power or communication adapter (LAN
etc.) before departure.
When shipping the Notebook, pack the battery separately in the cardboard
packaging.
When going through the hand luggage check at the airport it is recommended
that you send the Notebook and all magnetic storage media (external hard
drives) through the x-ray facility (the device that scans your bags). Avoid the
magnetic sensor (the structure that you walk through) or the magnetic hand
scanner (the manual device used by security personnel) as this may destroy your
data, among other things.
64 of 72
20.6. Maintenance
CAUTION!
None of the parts inside the Notebook housing require
cleaning or maintenance.
You can increase the lifespan of your Notebook with the following
measures:
Always unplug the device, disconnect all cables and remove the
battery before cleaning.
Clean the Notebook with a damp, lint-free cloth.
Do not use solvents, corrosive or aerosol-based detergents to clean
the device.
Do not use CD-ROM cleaning discs or similar products that clean
the lens of the laser to clean your optical drive.
Dust or grease on the touchpad can affect its sensitivity. Remove
the dust or grease from the surface of the touch pad with a strip of
adhesive tape.
Over time, dust can collect inside the Notebook which then
blocks the vents. This can lead to an increase in the fan speed and,
therefore, also increase the operating volume of your Notebook. It
can also lead to overheating and malfunctions. Therefore, have the
interior of the Notebook cleaned by your service department or a
specialist at regular intervals.
65 of 72
20.7. Care of the Display
Close the Notebook when you are not working with it. Avoid scratching the
surface of the screen because it can be easily damaged.
Make sure that no water droplets remain on the screen. Water can cause
permanent discolouration.
Clean the screen with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Do not place the screen in strong sunlight or near ultraviolet light.
The Notebook and its packaging can be recycled.
PLEASE NOTE!
The surfaces of the device are covered in protective film to prevent
scratching during production and transport.
Remove the film once the device has been set up properly and before
you use it.
21. Upgrading/Modifying and Repair
Upgrades and modifications to your Notebook should only
be carried out by qualified specialists. If you do not have the
necessary qualifications, have the work carried out by a qualified
service technician. Please contact your customer service

23. European EN 9241-307 Class II Standard
For active matrix LCDs (TFT) with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, each of which
consist of three sub-pixels (red, green, blue), there are a total of approx. 3.1 million
control transistors in use. Due to this very high number of transistors and the
associated extremely complex manufacturing processes used, occasionally one or
more pixels can fail or become incorrectly controlled.
In the past, there were a number of approaches for defining the permitted number
of pixel defects. However, these approaches were mostly very complicated and
varied from one manufacturer to the next. When handling warranty issues for all
of its display products, MEDION therefore adheres to the strict and transparent
requirements of the standard ISO 9241-307, Class II; which has been briefly
summarised below.
The EN 9241-307 standard defines, amongst other things, the generally applicable
guidelines relating to pixel defects. Pixel defects are categorised into four fault
classes and three defect types. Every individual pixel consists of three sub-pixels,
each of which is assigned a basic colour (red, green, blue).
Pixel structure
5 Pixel
Rows
Sub-Pixel
Pixel
blue
green
red
5 Pixel
69 of 72
Pixel defect types:
• Type 1:
permanently illuminated pixel (bright, white dot) even when not activated. A
white pixel occurs due to the illumination of all three sub-pixels.
• Type 2:
non-illuminated pixel (dark, black dot) even when activated.
• Type 3:
abnormal or faulty red, green or blue sub-pixel (e.g. permanently illuminated at
half brightness, one colour not illuminated, flashing or flickering but not type 1
or 2)
Supplement: Type 3 cluster (= failure of two or more sub-pixels within a 5 x 5 pixel
block). A cluster is a field of 5 x 5 pixels (15 x 5 sub-pixels).
