We would like to thank you for making an eMachines notebook your choice for

meeting your mobile computing needs.

Your guides

To help you use your eMachines notebook, we have designed a set of guides:

First off, the setup poster helps you get started with setting up your computer.

The eMachines Generic User Guide contains useful information applying to all

models in the eMachines product series. It covers basic topics such as using the

keyboard and audio, etc. Please understand that due to its nature, the Generic User

Guide will occasionally refer to functions or features which are only contained in

certain models of the series, but not necessarily in the model you purchased. Such

instances are marked in the text with language such as "only for certain models".

The Quick Guide introduces you to the basic features and functions of your new

computer. For more on how your computer can help you to be more productive,

please refer to the eMachines Generic User Guide. This guide contains detailed

information on such subjects as system utilities, data recovery, expansion options

and troubleshooting. In addition it contains warranty information and the general

regulations and safety notices for your notebook. It is available in Portable

Document Format (PDF) and comes preloaded on your notebook. Follow these

steps to access it:

1 Click on Start > All Programs > Documentation.

2 Click on eMachines Generic User Guide.

Note: Viewing the file requires Adobe Reader. If Adobe Reader is not

installed on your computer, clicking on eMachines Generic User

Guide will run the Adobe Reader setup program first. Follow the

instructions on the screen to complete the installation. For instructions

on how to use Adobe Reader, access the Help and Support menu.
