Connecting to the Internet

Your computer's wireless connection is turned on by default.

Windows will detect and display a list of available networks during setup.

Select your network and enter the password if required.

To turn your computer's Bluetooth or wireless connections on or off, press

<Fn+F3> to open Launch Manager.

Note: Click On to enable the wireless/Bluetooth connection. Click Off

to disable.

Otherwise, open Internet Explorer and follow the instructions. Please also

refer to your ISP or router documentation.

Instant Connect ensures a faster connection to any of the networks that

your computer connects to most frequently.

This computer has a built-in power management unit that monitors system

activity, such as activity involving one or more of the following devices:

keyboard, mouse, hard disk, peripherals connected to the computer, and

video memory. If no activity is detected for a period of time, the computer

stops some or all of these devices in order to conserve energy.

The Acer Green Instant On feature allows your computer to wake up from

Sleep mode in less than the time it takes to open the lid. When you close

the lid, or select Shut Down > Sleep from the Start menu, your computer

enters Sleep mode. While the computer is in Sleep mode, the power

indicator LED will flash orange.

After a certain amount of time in Sleep mode, the computer will

automatically enter Deep Sleep to preserve battery life. When the

computer is in Deep Sleep, the power indicator LED will be turned off. In

this state, battery life lasts up to 80 days.

Open the lid or press any key to wake your computer up from Deep Sleep

or Sleep mode.
