Recycling your battery
Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a shorter amount of time; this is a natural occurrence for all batteries. When this occurs, you may want to replace the battery with a fresh one*. If you replace it, it is important that you dispose of the old battery properly because batteries contain materials that could cause environmental damage if disposed of improperly.
Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the services of the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC)**, a non-profit public service organization dedicated to protecting our environment by recycling old batteries at no cost to you.
RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousands of locations throughout the United States and Canada. To find the location nearest you, go to www.RBRC.org or call 1-800-822-8837.
If there are no convenient RBRC locations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer Education Initiative website (http://EIAE.org/)
and search for a convenient disposal location.
Remember – protecting the environment is a cooperative effort, and you should make every effort to protect it for current and future generations.
* To order a new battery for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site at www.shopfujitsu.com in the US or
www.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks in Canada.
** RBRC is an independent third party to which Fujitsu provides funding for battery recycling; RBRC is in no way affiliated with Fujitsu.

D
If you would like to use the system as a tablet, perform the following steps.
THE DISPLAY CAN BE ROTATED IN EITHER DIRECTION, BUT WHEN RETURNING THE SYSTEM TO NOTEBOOK MODE, BE SURE TO TURN IT BACK TO ITS
ORIGINAL POSITION (I.E., THE REVERSE OF HOW YOU TURNED IT WHEN YOU OPENED IT. TURNING THE DISPLAY IN THE INCORRECT DIRECTION COULD CAUSE HINGE DAMAGE.
IN THE FOLLOWING STEP, BE SURE TO POSITION THE DISPLAY PERPENDICULAR TO THE KEYBOARD, OTHERWISE THE KEYBOARD OR DISPLAY COVER
COULD GET SCRATCHED.
1 Lift the display until it is perpendicular to the keyboard. (Figure 9). 2 When the display is perpendicular to the keyboard, rotate it 180 degrees in either direction (Figure 10) so that it
is facing backwards.
3 Holding the top edge of the display panel, pull it forward until it is lying nearly atop the keyboard. 4 To return the system to notebook configuration, repeat steps 3 and 2.

Holding the Tablet PC
Your computer can be used in tablet configuration in four different orientations: 0o, 90o, 180o, and 270o. (Figure ). Letters associated with each orientation refer to the position of the system when the arrow is facing up.
(A) Portrait Orientation: Hold the system with the display positioned vertically with the web camera on the
left.
(B) 2nd Portrait Orientation: Hold the system with the display positioned vertically with the web camera on
the right.
(C) Landscape Orientation: Hold the system with the display positioned horizontally with the web camera on
the top.
IF YOU HAVE A SYSTEM WITH A WIRELESS WAN MODULE INSTALLED, PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: WHILE HOLDING THE SYSTEM HORIZONTALLY
WITH THE WEB CAMERA AT THE BOTTOM (2ND LANDSCAPE ORIENTATION, AS NOTED BELOW) WWAN MUST NOT BE OPERATED WITH THE ANTENNA OPEN. OPERATING IN THIS POSITION COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE WWAN ANTENNA.
(D) 2nd Landscape Orientation: Hold the system with the display positioned horizontally with the web
camera on the bottom.
Changing Auto Rotation Feature
Your Tablet PC has an Auto Rotation utility that allows you to determine how you would like the display to act when the tablet is rotated. When Auto Rotation is enabled, the display will automatically rotate in the same direction as the screen.
When you receive your Tablet PC, Pause and Automatic Pause are set as the defaults for the Auto Rotation utility. When Pause is enabled, the system will not enter Auto Rotate until it is enabled. When Automatic Pause state is enabled, the screen will not rotate automatically if it has been rotated by a means other than Auto Rotation (such as when using the rotate button on the tablet).
If the system is in Automatic Pause state, there are several ways to resume Auto Rotate:
Position the display and screen in the same orientation.
When the system wakes from standby or hibernate mode.
When the system is rebooted or a logoff/logon is performed.
29
- Display Panel
When the system is in Pause state, there are several ways to enable it:
Go to the Start menu > All Programs > Auto Rotation Utility, and click Resume.
Right-click on the Auto Rotation Utility icon in the system tray and click Resume.
Open the Fujitsu Menu by pressing the [A] button or by clicking the Fujitsu Menu icon in the system tray, then
clicking the [AutoRotation Resume] button on the second page of the Fujitsu Menu.
Note: If you have Windows 8 Pro installed, pressing and holding the rotation button also turns off Auto Rotate.
Adjusting Display Panel Brightness
Once you have turned on your Tablet PC, you may want to adjust the brightness level of the screen to a more comfortable viewing level. There are three ways to adjust the brightness: keyboard, power management utility, and Fujitsu Menu.
Using Keyboard to Adjust Brightness
Adjusting the brightness using the keyboard changes the system setting (i.e., the settings you make via the function keys automatically changes the brightness settings in the system’s Pen and Tablet Settings).
[Fn+F6]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness of your display.
[Fn+F7]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the brightness of the display.
Using Power Management to Adjust Brightness
To adjust brightness with the power management utility: Click Start -> Control Panel. In View by:, select one of the icon views. Select Display, then click Adjust brightness in
the left pane. Drag the Screen brightness: slider to the left or right, depending upon your preference.
Using the Fujitsu Menu to Adjust Brightness
To adjust brightness using the Fujitsu menu, click on the Fujitsu Menu icon in the system tray in the lower right corner of the screen. (You can also open the Fujitsu menu by pressing the [A] button.) Scroll down to the Windows Mobility Center and double-click it, then double-click the icon adjacent to Display brightness. Set the screen brightness sliders for On battery and Plugged in scenarios.
You can also use the Fujitsu Menu as a quick way to reduce the brightness to a minimum or increase it to a maximum. This is done by clicking the corresponding button in the Fujitsu Menu: LCD Brightness Min or LCD Brightness Max.
30
- Display Panel
IF USING AC POWER, YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTING IS SET TO ITS HIGHEST LEVEL BY DEFAULT. IF USING BATTERY POWER, YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTINGS

T
HE HIGHER THE BRIGHTNESS LEVEL, THE MORE POWER THE TABLET PC WILL CONSUME AND THE FASTER YOUR BATTERIES WILL DISCHARGE. FOR
MAXIMUM BATTERY LIFE, MAKE SURE THAT THE BRIGHTNESS IS SET AS LOW AS POSSIBLE.
Enabling/Disabling Ambient Light Sensor
This system has an ambient light sensor (just below the Tablet buttons) that automatically senses the light conditions in which the computer is operating. If the lighting is very bright, the brightness of the LCD will increase to make it easier to see the display. Conversely, if it is used in a darkened room, the display will automatically dim.
N
OTE THAT WHEN YOU FIRST START YOUR SYSTEM, THE AMBIENT LIGHT SENSOR IS DISABLED. YOU WILL INITIALLY NEED TO ENABLE IT USING THE
FOLLOWING STEPS.
The light sensor can be enabled or disabled from the Control Panel as follows:
Windows 7:
1 Open the system Control Panel and click in the View by: field, select either large or small icons. 2 Click on the Location and Other Sensors icon. 3 To enable or disable the Light Sensor utility, check or uncheck the box in the Enabled column. 4 For more information about the light sensor, click on Light Sensor in the Sensor column to open the Sensor
Properties window.
5 From the Sensor Properties window, you can change the sensor’s description, uninstall the sensor, or enable or
disable selected users.

N
DISPLAYED WHEN YOU TURN YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC ON THE NEXT TIME.
See “Power On Self Test Messages” on page 99.
Boot Sequence
The procedure for starting-up your notebook is termed the Bootup sequence and involves your notebook’s BIOS. When your notebook is first turned on, the main system memory is empty, and it needs to find instructions to start up your notebook. This information is in the BIOS program. Each time you power up or restart your notebook, it goes through a boot sequence which displays a Fujitsu logo until the operating system is found. During booting, your notebook is performing a standard boot sequence including a Power On Self Test (POST). When the boot sequence is completed without a failure and without a request for the BIOS Setup Utility, the system displays the operating system’s opening screen.
The boot sequence is executed when:
You turn on the power to your LIFEBOOK notebook.
You restart your LIFEBOOK notebook from [Settings]->[Power] menu.
The software initiates a system restart; for example, when you install a new application.

Booting the System
We strongly recommend that you not attach any external devices or put a DVD/CD in your drive until you have gone through the initial power on sequence.
When you turn on your LIFEBOOK notebook for the first time, it will display a Fujitsu logo on the screen. If you do nothing the system will load the operating system, and then the Windows Welcome will begin.
Starting Windows the First Time
After you boot up the system the first time and follow the instructions on the screen, you will eventually come to the Welcome window. After sign-in, it takes less then a minute for the computer to boot to Windows; during that time the progress bar and interactive messages are displayed on the screen.
During the course of the first start up, you will need to read and accept the End User License Agreements (EULAs) for Microsoft and Fujitsu.
YOU CANNOT USE YOUR NOTEBOOK UNTIL YOU HAVE ACCEPTED THE LICENSE AGREEMENT. IF YOU STOP THE PROCESS YOUR NOTEBOOK WILL RETURN
TO THE BEGINNING OF THE WINDOWS WELCOME PROCESS, EVEN IF YOU SHUT YOUR NOTEBOOK DOWN AND START IT UP AGAIN.
Several additional windows will appear, prompting you to enter a name and description for your computer, an Administrator password, and a domain name. Read the instructions on the screens carefully and fill in the information as directed.
Following first boot, you will arrive at the Modern start screen. Some useful shortcuts for your reference: Press the Windows + D keys to go to traditional Windows desktop or press Windows + M keys to load the traditional Windows desktop and minimize all applications.
Installing Bonus Apps
After you have started your system the first time, you will see a Bonus Apps icon on your desktop. Click on
the icon to see which additional applications are available for you to install. You can also access Bonus Apps by opening the Charms panel from the Modern Start screen and searching for "Fujitsu BonusApps". Applications that are already installed appear in grey; those that are available for installation appear in blue.
63
- Starting Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC
Select the applications you wish to install by selecting the checkbox adjacent to your selection, or click [Select All] if you would like to install all available applications. Once you have made your selections, click [Install].
Note that in some cases (depending upon which application was selected for installation) after installation completes, the system will prompt you to reboot. There are also cases in which if multiple applications are selected to install but one of them needs a reboot, the system will reboot and continue installing the rest of the selected applications.
Registering your LIFEBOOK with Fujitsu
You can register your notebook by going to our website at: http://www.us.fujitsu.com/computers. You will need to be set up with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to register online.

Power Management

Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has many options and features for conserving battery power. Some of these features are automatic and need no user intervention. However, others depend on the parameters you set to best suit your operating conditions, such as those for the display brightness. Internal power management for your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC may be controlled from settings made in your operating system.
Besides the options available for conserving battery power, there are also some things that you can do to prevent your battery from running down as quickly. For example, you can create an appropriate power saving profile, put your Tablet PC into Sleep mode when it is not performing an operation, and you can limit the use of high power devices. As with all mobile, battery powered computers, there is a trade-off between performance and power savings.
In Windows 7, when you have a second battery installed you can select the battery discharge settings by going to Start -> Battery Utility -> Battery Discharge Settings.
Power and Suspend/Resume Slide
When your Tablet PC is active, the Power and Suspend/Resume slide can be used to manually put it into Sleep mode. Push the Power and Suspend/Resume slide when your Tablet PC is active, but not actively accessing anything, and immediately release the slide. Your system will enter Sleep mode.
If your Tablet PC is suspended, pushing the Power and Suspend/Resume slide will return your Tablet PC to active operation. You can tell whether or not your system is in Sleep mode by looking at the Power indicator which is part of the Suspend/Resume slide. LIFEBOOK Tablet PC is fully operational. If the indicator is both visible and flashing, your Tablet PC is in Sleep mode. If the indicator is not visible at all, the power is off or your Tablet PC is in Save-to-Disk (Hibernation) mode.
“Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) Feature” on page 67.
(See figure 2 on page 11 for location)
If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your

Sleep Mode
Sleep mode saves your Tablet PC’s system memory contents during periods of inactivity by maintaining power to critical parts. This mode will turn off the CPU, the display, the hard drive, and all of the other internal components except those necessary to maintain system memory and allow for restarting.
Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC can be put in Sleep mode by:
Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume slide when your system is turned on.
65
- Power Management
Clicking the power icon on the lock menu.
Selecting Sleep from the [Settings]->[Power] menu.
Timing out from lack of activity.
Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery Warning condition.
Your Tablet PC’s system memory typically stores the files on which you are working, open application information, and any other data required to support the operations in progress. When you resume operation from Sleep mode, your Tablet PC will return to the point where it left off. You must use the Power and Suspend/Resume slide to resume operation, and there must be an adequate power source available, or your Tablet PC will not resume.
IF YOU ARE RUNNING YOUR TABLET PC ON BATTERY POWER, BE AWARE THAT THE BATTERY CONTINUES TO DISCHARGE WHILE YOUR TABLET PC IS
IN SLEEP MODE, THOUGH NOT AS FAST AS WHEN FULLY OPERATIONAL.
DISABLING THE SUSPEND/RESUME SLIDE PREVENTS IT FROM BEING USED TO PUT YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC IN SLEEP OR SAVE-TO-DISK MODE.
T
HE RESUME FUNCTION OF THE SLIDE CANNOT BE DISABLED.
THE SLEEP OR HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) MODE SHOULD NOT BE USED WITH CERTAIN PC CARDS. CHECK YOUR PC CARD DOCUMENTATION
FOR MORE INFORMATION.
WHEN PC CARDS OR EXTERNAL DEVICES ARE IN USE, HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) MODE CANNOT RETURN TO THE EXACT STATE PRIOR TO
SUSPENSION BECAUSE ALL OF THE PERIPHERAL DEVICES WILL BE RE-INITIALIZED WHEN THE SYSTEM RE-STARTS.
IF YOUR TABLET PC IS ACCESSING INFORMATION WHEN YOU ENTER SLEEP OR HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) MODE, CHANGES TO OPEN FILES ARE
NOT LOST. THE FILES ARE LEFT OPEN AND MEMORY IS KEPT ACTIVE DURING SLEEP MODE, OR THE MEMORY IS TRANSFERRED TO THE INTERNAL HARD DRIVE DURING HIBERNATION MODE.
THE MAIN ADVANTAGE OF USING THE HIBERNATION (SAVE-TO-DISK) FUNCTION IS THAT POWER IS NOT REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN YOUR DATA. THIS
IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IF YOU WILL BE LEAVING YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC IN A SUSPENDED STATE FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME.
T
HE DRAWBACK OF USING HIBERNATION MODE IS THAT IT LENGTHENS THE POWER DOWN AND POWER UP SEQUENCES AND RESETS PERIPHERAL
DEVICES.
YOUR SYSTEM IS SET TO USE THE MAX BATTERY POWER SCHEME WHEN RUNNING ON BATTERY POWER. IF YOU CHANGE THE POWER SCHEME TO A
DIFFERENT PROFILE, YOUR BATTERY LIFE MAY VARY.

- Power Management
Power Off
Before turning off the power, check that the hard drive/optical drive access indicator is off. If you turn off the power while accessing a disk there is a risk of data loss. To ensure that your Tablet PC shuts down without error, use the Windows shut down procedure.
ALWAYS POWER OFF THE COMPUTER BEFORE TRANSPORTING AND/OR PACKAGING IT. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN THE SYSTEM, WAIT UNTIL THE STATUS
LED
PANEL INDICATES POWER OFF CONDITION (I.E., NO LIGHTS ARE ILLUMINATED).
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE UNIT MAY NOT AUTOMATICALLY GO TO POWER OFF OR HIBERNATE MODE WHEN YOU CLOSE THE LID. THIS SITUATION MAY
OCCUR DUE TO PRE-OS BOOT PASSWORD SECURITY SETTINGS OR SOME OTHER APPLICATION RUNNING ON THE COMPUTER.
ATTEMPTING TO TRANSPORT THE COMPUTER WHILE POWER IS ON MAY DAMAGE THE TABLET PC DUE TO SHOCK OR OVERHEATING SINCE THE AIR
VENTS MAY BE BLOCKED OR RESTRICTED.
E SURE TO CLOSE ALL FILES, EXIT ALL APPLICATIONS, AND SHUT DOWN YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM PRIOR TO TURNING OFF THE POWER. IF FILES ARE
B
OPEN WHEN YOU TURN THE POWER OFF, YOU WILL LOSE ANY CHANGES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN SAVED, AND MAY CAUSE DISK ERRORS.
Using the correct procedure to shut down from Windows allows your Tablet PC to complete its operations and turn off power in the proper sequence to avoid errors. The proper sequence is:
From the Modern Start screen, open Charms ([Windows] + C) or mouse over [-] in the bottom right corner of the screen), then click [Settings] -> [Power]. Select Shut down from the list. If you are going to store your Tablet PC for a month or more see the Care and Maintenance Section.

ENERGY STAR® Compliance
Your Fujitsu system is an ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PC. By choosing a computer with the latest energy-saving technology, you’re helping to preserve our environment for future generations.
ENERGY STAR is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department of Energy,
Natural Resources Canada, and other governments around the world helping us save money while protecting the environment through energy efficient products and practices. With energy costs and global warming top-of-mind for consumers, Fujitsu is committed to offering solutions that help consumers conserve energy and improve the quality of our environment.
Sleep Mode:
If you are powering your system with a power adapter, you will notice that your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 15 minutes of user inactivity, and the computer goes into Sleep mode after 20 minutes of user inactivity. If you are powering your system with the battery, your computer is initially set so that the display turns off after 10 minutes of user inactivity, and the computer goes into Sleep mode after 20 minutes of user inactivity. When going into Sleep mode, the computer also reduces the speed of any active Ethernet network links. To “wake” the computer from Sleep mode, press the Suspend/Resume slide.
Energy saving benefits:
Fujitsu ENERGY STAR qualified mobile PCs use about half as much electricity as standard equipment – saving half in utility costs. But more than that, ENERGY STAR also makes a difference for the environment. Did you know that the average house can be responsible for twice the greenhouse gas emissions as the average car? That’s because every time you flip on a light switch, run your dishwasher, or turn on your PC, you use energy, which means more greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. So the more energy we can save through energy efficiency, the more we help to reduce greenhouse gases and the risks of global warming.

User-Installable Features

Lithium ion Battery

Your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC has a Lithium ion battery that provides power for operating your Tablet PC when no external power source is available. The battery is durable and long lasting, but should not be exposed to extreme temperatures, high voltages, chemicals or other hazards.
The Lithium ion battery operating time may become shorter if it is used under the following conditions:
When used at temperatures that exceed a low of 5°C or a high of 35°C (41° to 95° F). Extreme temperatures not only reduce charging efficiency, but can also cause battery deterioration. The Charging icon on the Status Indicator panel will flash when you try to charge a battery that is outside its operating temperature range.
When using a high current device such as a modem, external optical drive, or the hard drive, using the AC adapter will conserve your battery life.
DO NOT LEAVE A FAULTY BATTERY IN YOUR TABLET PC. IT MAY DAMAGE YOUR AC ADAPTER, OPTIONAL AUTO/AIRLINE ADAPTER, ANOTHER BATTERY
OR YOUR TABLET PC ITSELF. IT MAY ALSO PREVENT OPERATION OF YOUR TABLET PC BY DRAINING ALL AVAILABLE CURRENT INTO THE BAD BATTERY.
70
ACTUAL BATTERY LIFE WILL VARY BASED ON SCREEN BRIGHTNESS, APPLICATIONS, FEATURES, POWER MANAGEMENT SETTINGS, BATTERY CONDITION
AND OTHER CUSTOMER PREFERENCES. OPTICAL DRIVE OR HARD DRIVE USAGE MAY ALSO HAVE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON BATTERY LIFE. THE BATTERY CHARGING CAPACITY IS REDUCED AS THE BATTERY AGES. IF YOUR BATTERY IS RUNNING LOW QUICKLY, YOU SHOULD REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE.
UNDER FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL LAW IT MAY BE ILLEGAL TO DISPOSE OF BATTERIES BY PUTTING THEM IN THE TRASH. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF OUR
ENVIRONMENT AND DISPOSE OF BATTERIES PROPERLY. CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY FOR DETAILS REGARDING RECYCLING OR DISPOSING OF OLD BATTERIES. IF YOU CANNOT FIND THIS INFORMATION ELSEWHERE, CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT REPRESENTATIVE AT 1-800-
8FUJITSU (1-800-838-5487)
Recharging the Batteries
If you want to know the condition of the primary Lithium ion battery, check the Battery Level indicator located on the Status Indicator panel. The indicator changes as the battery level changes.
The Lithium ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter or Auto/Airline adapter. To recharge the battery make sure the battery that needs to be charged is installed in your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC and connect the AC or Auto/Airline adapter.
W
HEN BUTTON A IS PRESSED WHILE THE SYSTEM IS IN OFF MODE, THE BATTERY LED SHOWS THE REMAINING CAPACITY OF THE BATTERY (SEE
“S
TATUS INDICATOR PANELON PAGE 24.) FIVE SECONDS AFTER RELEASING THE BUTTON, THE LED WILL TURN OFF AUTOMATICALLY.
M
AKE SURE THAT THE PERCENTAGE CHARGE IS INDICATED BY THE BATTERY CHARGING INDICATOR ON THE STATUS INDICATOR PANEL.
W
HEN THE [PUSH] MARK ON THE BATTERY ITSELF IS PRESSED, THE LED BESIDE THE [PUSH] MARK SHOWS THE REMAINING CAPACITY OF THE
BATTERY (GREEN: 50-100%, ORANGE: 11-49%, RED: 1-10%).
There is no memory effect on the Lithium ion battery therefore you do not need to discharge the battery completely before recharging. The charge times will be significantly longer if your Tablet PC is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly, put your Tablet PC into Sleep mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. (See Power Management on page 65 for more information on Sleep mode and shutdown procedure)
71
- Lithium ion Battery
USING HEAVY CURRENT DEVICES OR FREQUENT EXTERNAL OPTICAL DRIVE ACCESSES MAY PREVENT CHARGING COMPLETELY.
Low Battery State
When the battery is running low, a low battery notification message will appear. If you do not respond to the low battery message, the batteries will continue to discharge until they are too low to operate. When this happens, your Tablet PC will go into Sleep mode. There is no guarantee that your data will be saved once the Tablet PC reaches this point.
ONCE THE LOW BATTERY NOTIFICATION MESSAGE APPEARS, YOU NEED TO SAVE ALL YOUR ACTIVE DATA AND PUT YOUR LIFEBOOK TABLET PC INTO
S
LEEP MODE UNTIL YOU CAN PROVIDE A NEW POWER SOURCE. YOU SHOULD PROVIDE A CHARGED BATTERY, AN AC POWER ADAPTER, OR
A
UTO/AIRLINE ADAPTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
WHEN YOU ARE IN SLEEP MODE THERE MUST ALWAYS BE AT LEAST ONE POWER SOURCE ACTIVE. IF YOU REMOVE ALL POWER SOURCES WHILE YOUR
LIFEBOOK T
ABLET PC IS IN SLEEP MODE, ANY DATA THAT HAS NOT BEEN SAVED TO THE HARD DRIVE WILL BE LOST.
Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indicator just like the normal Sleep mode. Once your Tablet PC goes into Dead Battery Suspend mode you will be unable to resume operation until you provide a source of power either from an adapter, or a charged battery. Once you have provided power, you will need to press the Power/Suspend/Resume slide to resume operation.
In the Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data can be maintained for some time, but if a power source is not provided promptly, the Power indicator will stop flashing and go out, meaning that you have lost the data that was not stored. Once you provide power, you can continue to use your Tablet PC while an adapter is charging the battery.
Shorted Batteries
The Status Indicator panel indicator associated with the Battery Level indicator displays the operating level available in that battery. If this display shows a flashing red LED, it means the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it does not damage other parts of your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC.
72
- Lithium ion Battery

Troubleshooting Your LIFEBOOK

Troubleshooting

There may be occasions when you encounter simple setup or operating problems that you can solve on the spot, or problems with peripheral devices that can be solved by replacing the device. The information in this section helps you isolate and resolve some of these straightforward issues and identify failures that require service.
Identifying the Problem
If you encounter a problem, go through the following procedure before pursuing complex troubleshooting:
1 Turn off your LIFEBOOK notebook. 2 Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into your notebook and to an active AC power source. 3 Make sure that any card installed in the PC Card slot is seated properly. You can also remove the card from the slot,
thus eliminating it as a possible cause of failure.
4 Make sure that any devices connected to the external connectors are plugged in properly. You can also disconnect
such devices, thus eliminating them as possible causes of failure.
5 Turn on your notebook. Make sure it has been off at least 10 seconds before you turn it back on. 6 Go through the boot sequence. 7 If the problem has not been resolved, refer to the Troubleshooting Table, that follows, for more detailed

Problem Possible Cause Possible Solutions Audio Problems
There is no sound coming from the built-in speaker.
Optical Drive Problems
LIFEBOOK Tablet PC fails to recognize DVD/CD­RW/CD-ROM’s.
The volume is turned too low. Adjust the volume control on your Tablet PC and operating system. Use the
[Fn+F9] key combination on your keyboard. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the volume of your Tablet PC.
The software volume control is set too low.
Headphones are plugged into your Tablet PC.
Software driver is not configured correctly.
The speakers have been muted using the Volume icon in the system tray.
The disc is not pushed down onto raised center circle of the drive.
Optical drive tray is not latched shut.
Manually adjusting the volume (i.e., keyboard "hot keys") should dynamically adjust the volume of the operating system (see above). If that doesn’t work, adjust the sound volume control settings in your software or application.
Plugging in headphones disables the built-in speakers. Remove the head­phones.
The audio driver may be installed or reinstalled using the Drivers and Applica­tions CD that came with your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK. Refer to your application and operating system documentation for help.
Click the Volume icon in the system tray on the bottom right of the screen. (It looks like a speaker). If the Mute box has a red circle on it, click on it to unselect it. You can also use the [Fn+F3] key combination to toggle the volume on and off. Pressing [F3] while holding [Fn] will toggle the audio mute.
Open optical drive tray and re-install the disc properly.
Push on the front of the optical drive tray until it latches. If that doesn’t work, pull out the modular drive latch to remove the device from the bay, then re­insert the drive until it latched; this ensures that the drive is properly seated.
Incorrect DVD Player or player software is installed.
DVD/CD-RW/CD-ROM is dirty or defective.
Install DVD Player software.
Wipe the disc with a non-abrasive CD cleaning cloth and reinsert. If it still will not work try another DVD/CD-RW/CD-ROM in the drive.
