Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial setup involves connecting the 135W AC adapter to ensure the system is fully powered during the Windows 11 configuration process. Ensure you connect to a 5GHz Wi-Fi band to take full advantage of the Wi-Fi 6 capabilities for lower latency during online gaming.

For ongoing care, keep the air intake vents on the bottom and the exhaust vents at the back clear of obstructions, such as soft blankets or pillows, to maintain efficient airflow. If you intend to upgrade the internal components, the memory is accessible via two SO-DIMM slots; always disconnect the power and battery before opening the chassis to avoid electrostatic damage. Regularly clean the screen with a dry microfiber cloth to maintain the clarity of the matte display.
