First things first  
We would like to thank you for making an Acer notebook your choice for  
meeting your mobile computing needs.  
Your guides  
To help you use your Acer notebook, we have designed a set of guides:  
First off, the Just for Starters... poster helps you get started with setting up your  
computer.  
The printed Aspire Series Generic User Guide contains useful information  
applying to all models in the Aspire product series. It covers basic topics such as  
Acer’s Empowering Technology, using the keyboard, audio, etc. Please  
understand that due to its nature, the Generic User Guide as well as the  
AcerSystem User Guide mentioned below 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 printed 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 AcerSystem 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:
