FAQs

How do I update the drivers?

Windows generally updates drivers automatically. However, you can manually update drivers through Device Manager. Search for 'Device Manager' in the Windows search bar, then right-click on your device and select 'Update driver'.

How do I adjust the screen brightness?

Use the function keys (usually F1-F12) that have a sun icon. Alternatively, you can adjust the brightness in the Windows settings under 'System' -> 'Display'.

How do I connect to Wi-Fi?

Click on the Wi-Fi icon in the system tray (bottom right corner). Select your Wi-Fi network and enter the password if required.

What should I do if the laptop freezes?

Press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds to force a shutdown. Then, restart the laptop. If the problem persists, check for any recently installed software or drivers that might be causing the issue.

How do I extend battery life?

Reduce screen brightness, close unused applications, disable Bluetooth when not in use, and enable battery saver mode in Windows settings.

How can I clean the laptop?

Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to clean the exterior and the screen. Be careful not to let any moisture get into the ports or the keyboard.

What is the warranty period?

Please refer to the warranty information provided by Acer or the retailer where you purchased the laptop for specific details.

How do I access the BIOS?

Typically, you access the BIOS by pressing a specific key (e.g., Delete, F2, F12) during startup. The key to press will be indicated on the screen during the boot process, usually at the Acer logo.

Troubleshooting
