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 Aspire Series Generic User Guide contains useful information applying to all  
models in the Aspire 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 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 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.
