DATA SECURITY

Your LifeBook 700 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 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 89-94 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

The primary Lithium ion battery is not
charged when you purchase your note­book. Initially you will need to connect
the AC adapter or the auto/airline adapter
to use it. If you purchase a second Lithium
ion battery it will not be charged when
you get it. You will need to charge it prior
to use. It can take up to three (3) hours to
charge a single battery if your notebook
is turned off or is in Suspend mode. If
your notebook is in use it can take up
to nine (9) hours or more to charge a
single battery.

To Connect the Optional Auto/airline Adapter

1. Plug the DC Output cable into the DC
Power jack on the right-side panel of
your notebook.

2. Plug the auto/airline adapter plug into the
cigarette lighter of a car or other vehicle
with the ignition key in the On or the
Accessories position or into the DC
Power jack on an airplane seat.

To Switch From AC Adapter Power
To Battery Power

1. Be sure that you have at least one charged
battery installed.

2. Remove the AC or auto/airline adapter.

C A U T I O N

Make sure you memorize your pass­words, both hardware and software.
If you forget, you may not be able to use
the notebook, and you will have to con­tact your service provider and arrange to
have them reset the hardware system
password. See your software documen­tation for what to do if you forget your
software security password(s).

L i f e B o o k 7 00 S e r i e s f r o m Fujitsu

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.

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 23-
24 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.

Conditions of Use Process

LEARNING ABOUT YOUR OPERAT I N G
SYSTEM AND APPLICATION SOFTWA R E

Tutorials

All operating systems and most application
software have tutorials built-in.We highly rec­ommend that you step through your tutorial
before you use an application even if you are
familiar with the same application on a differ­ent machine,an earlier version of the applica­tion, or a similar product.

Manuals

In the accessories box you will find manuals for
Windows 95 and other pre-installed software.

Software manuals of pre-installed software
that are not in the accessories box are available

SECTION TWO

USING YOUR LIFEBOOK
700 SERIES FROM FUJITSU

This section describes the indicators,buttons,
connections and operating modes of your
LifeBook 700 Series and their use.

DISPLAY PANEL

Opening the Display Panel

Lifting the latch releases the top of the display
panel from the front of the notebook body.
When the display panel is released it pops up
slightly to make it easier to open.Lift the dis­play panel backward until the screen is at a
comfortable viewing angle. (Figure 2-1.)

Adjusting the Display Panel

When you turn on your notebook, you may
want to adjust the brightness level of the screen
for best visibility. To do this, adjust the bright­ness control slider on the right side of the
display panel. (Figure 2-2.)You may need to
adjust the brightness periodically for different
operating environments.

Figure 2-1 Opening the Display Panel

P O I N T

The higher the brightness level, the more
power the notebook will consume and
the faster your batteries will discharge.
For maximum battery life, make sure that
the brightness is set as low as possible.

ADJUSTING THE KEYBOARD ANGLE

On the bottom of your notebook,near the
back,are a pair of feet which flip down and
hold the back of the notebook about 6° higher
than the front when resting on a flat surface.
They are designed to make it more comfortable
to use the keyboard with your notebook.The
feet must be folded flat against the bottom
of the notebook when opening or using the
CD-ROM drive or it will not open or operate
properly. (Figure 1-10 on page 10)

C A U T I O N

When you are not using the adjustment
feet be sure that they are folded flat
against the bottom of the notebook.
They could be broken off or injure
someone if not used properly.

C A U T I O N

Do not operate your CD-ROM drive
or attempt to open the tray unless your
notebook is sitting on a flat surface and
the adjustment feet are folded against
the bottom of the notebook. Using a
CD-ROM drive when it is not level
may damage the drive or prevent
proper operation.

STATUS INDICATOR PANEL

The Status Indicator panel is located in the
recess just above the keyboard. (Figure 2-3 on
page 20.) The appropriate indicators become

visible as you use your notebook.

Power Indicator

The Power indicator tells you when the system

is operational. It is on steady when there is
power to your notebook,and blinks when the
system is in Suspend mode. It goes off when
the system has entered Save-to-Disk mode,has
entered the Windows 95 pseudo-off state, or
the power is turned off from the power switch.

L i f e B o o k 7 0 0 Se r i e s f r o m Fuj i t su

P O I N T

When your notebook has been shut
down from Windows 95, it is not the
same as turned off from the power
switch. It is in a pseudo-off state, with
all applications closed, but can be turned
on by pressing the Suspend/Resume
button. It is drawing some current in
the pseudo-off state.

C A U T I O N

Your notebook’s power switch must be
turned off to prevent all current draw.
