Connecting the Power Adapters

The AC adapter or an optional auto/airline
adapter provides power for operating
your notebook, with or without the LAN
Enhancement Unit,and charging the batteries.

(Figure 1-14.)

To Connect the ACAdapter to your Notebook

1.Plug the DC output cable of the AC adapter
into the DC power jack on the rear panel
of your notebook.

2.Plug the AC adapter into an AC
electrical outlet.

To Connect an Optional Auto/Airline
Adapter to your Notebook

1.Plug the DC output cable into the DC power
jack on the rear panel of your notebook.

2.Plug the auto/airline adapter connector into
the cigarette lighter of a car or other vehicle
with the ignition key in the On or the
Accessories position.Or plug the auto/airline
adapter plug into the power jack on the seat
in airplanes that are equipped to support
powered electronic devices.

C A U T I O N

Neither the internal nor the external
Lithium ion battery is charged when you
purchase your notebook. Initially you will
need to connect the AC adapter or an
optional auto/airline adapter to use the
notebook and charge the batteries. It can
take up to 3 hours to charge a single
battery if the notebook is Off or in
Suspend mode. If your notebook is
in use it can take up to 9 hours or more
to charge a single battery.

Figure 1-14 Connecting the AC Adapter

1. Be sure that you have both an internal and
an external charged battery installed.

2. Remove the AC or auto/airline adapter.

DATA SECURITY

Your LifeBook 600 Series has a built-in hard­ware control password security feature that
allows you to protect the data stored in the
notebook from unauthorized access. Your
operating system and some applications have
software control password security features
that allow you to protect all or portions
of the data stored in the notebook from
unauthorized access.

Hardware Data Security Features

When you are using your notebook’s built-in

hardware control password to gain access to the
notebook the actual password will not appear
on the screen. This is a safety precaution.The

hardware control security parameters are set

from the BIOS setup utility. (See Security Menu
on pages 81-85 for more information on setting
and clearing passwords and enabling and
disabling built-in security features.)

Software Data Security Features

The operating system and some applications
have security features that are independent of
the built-in hardware protection features that
are controlled from the BIOS. See your software
documentation for more information about
these features.

C A U T I O N

Software security feature passwords may
not be the same as the hardware security
passwords. Be sure you know which
features are controlled from software
and which from hardware or you may
lock yourself out of your own data or
lock up your hardware and not be able
to operate your notebook.

C A U T I O N

Make sure you memorize your password s ,
both hard w a re and software. If you forg e t ,
you may not be able to use the notebook,
and you will have to contact your serv i c e
p rovider and arrange to have them re s e t

the hard w a re system password. See your
s o f t w a re manuals for what to do if you

f o rget your software security password ( s ) .

STARTING YOUR NOTEBOOK
FOR THE FIRST TIME

Booting the System

The first time that you turn on your notebook
you will need to attach your AC adapter
because the battery is not charged when you
get your machine. We strongly recommend
that you not attach any other external devices
and do not put any CD or floppy disk in your
drives until you have gone through the initial
power on sequence.

When you turn on your notebook for the first
time it will display a Fujitsu logo on the screen.
If you do nothing the system will read the hard
drive for the operating system software, flash
the notebook configuration information on the
screen,and then the Windows 95 Setup Wizard
Screen will appear. (See Power On on pages 27-28
for additional help.) You will then be stepped

through the condition of use process.You
must complete this initial process before you
will be able to use your notebook.(If you wish
to access the BIOS setup utility before you go
through the condition of use process you must

press the F2 key while the Fujitsu logo is still
visible. If you press the Esc key while the
Fujitsu logo is still present you will get a dialog
box which will allow you to select which drive

is to be used for finding the operating system.)
If you turn off the power without using the
on screen Cancel button you will get an error
message when you start your notebook again.
