Getting Started
This section helps you get your computer running and registered, so you
can take advantage of Sony’s many support options. You’ll also learn how
to locate your on-screen VAIO® Computer User Guide, which contains
step-by-step instructions for operating your computer.
Turning On Your Computer
To use your computer immediately, use the supplied AC adapter as a power
source. Your supplied battery is not charged when you unpack it; however, you
can begin charging it when you use your AC adapter. See “Powering Your
Computer” in your on-screen VAIO® Computer User Guide for more
information about battery use. To find the user guide, see “Locating Your VAIO
Computer User Guide” on page 30.
Inserting a battery
To insert a battery
1 Turn the computer over, and slide the UNLOCK/LOCK latch on the bottom
of the battery to the UNLOCK position.
2 Align the grooves on the battery with the tabs on the back of the computer.
✍ This computer is designed to operate only with a genuine Sony battery.
