If you do not you could cause a system error. When you turn on your notebook be sure you have a power source. This means that at least one battery is installed and charged, or that the AC adapter or the auto/airline adapter is connected and has power.
S e c t i o n T w o After satisfactory completion of the Power On Self Test (POST) your notebook will load your operating system. (See Boot Options on pages 6768 to see which kind of disk will be the s ource.) CAUTION Never turn off your notebook during Power On Self Test (POST) or it will cause an error message to be displayed when you turn your notebook on the next time. (See the Troubleshooting information on pages 140-142.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using RESTARTING THE SYSTEM When you wish to restart your system be sure that you follow the proper procedure. The procedure is as follows: 1.Go to the Start button menu.

Verify that Restart the computer? is selected and click on Yes .
S e c t i o n ■ ■ ■ T w o When used at temperatures that exceed a low of 5°C or a high of 35°C. High 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.) 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.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using Recharging the Batteries If you want to check the condition of either the internal Lithium ion Smart battery or the external Lithium ion Smart battery, check the Battery Level indicators located on the Status Indicator panel. These indicators change as the battery levels change. Battery 1 is the internal Lithium ion Smart battery and Battery 2 is the external Lithium ion Smart battery. (Figure 2-3 on page 23.) You can also check the PowerPanel toolbar.
S e c t i o n T w o battery alarm le vel will send your notebook into Suspend mode,it will not go to Save-to-Disk mode. (Figure 2-3 on page 23.) CAUTION You may not be able to hear the audio alarms if the volume control is set too low or is turned off by either hardware or software but you will still be able to see the Battery Level indicator(s) flash. When the low battery alarm occurs you need to save all your active data and put your notebook into Suspend mode until you can provide a new power source.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using Your LifeBook 600 Series POINT POINT An external mouse can be connected to the PS/2 port on the rear panel of your notebook, and used at the same time as the touchpad pointing device. Cursor Control Left-Click Left Double-Click Left Button Right Button Figure 2-6 Touchpad Pointing Device A light pressure with the tip of your fingernail is all that is required to operate the touchpad.

You will use your notebook’s operating system software to format a floppy disk.Please refer to the operating system manual for step-by-step instructions.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Your LifeBook 600 Series Keep the floppy disk drive and disks out of direct sunlight and away from heating equipment. Avoid storing the floppy disk drive in locations subject to shock and vibration. Avoid using the floppy disk drive and disks in damp and dusty locations. Never use the floppy disk drive with any liquid, metal, or foreign matter inside the floppy disk drive or disk. Never store a floppy disk near a magnet or magnetic field.
S e c t i o n T w o ■ CAUTION Do not operate your CD-ROM drive unless your notebook and LAN Enhancement Unit combination is sitting on a flat surface. Using a disk when the drive is not level may damage the drive or prevent proper operation. ■ ■ Place the CD into the tray, label side up, with the hole in the center of the disk snapped onto the raised circle in the center of the tray. Care of CD-ROMs CD-ROMs are precision devices and will function reliably if given reasonable care. Close the tray.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using ■ If a disk is dirty, use only a CD-ROM cleaner or wipe it with a clean,soft,lint free cloth starting from the inner edge and wiping to the outer edge. HARD DRIVE The internal hard drive capacity is dependent on which model you are using. See Appendix A (pages 152-156) for model information. Formatting the Hard Drive The hard drive inside your notebook is formatted (initialized) at the factory. You do not need to format it under normal circumstances.
S e c t i o n T w o on,and hold it in until it is acknowledged by activation of the selected mode. Which mode is activated depends on the settings of the BIOS setup utility Power Savings menu. The default is Suspend mode. (See pages 88-89 for how to select Save-to-Disk mode.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using POINT If your notebook is active when you enter the Suspend mode or Save-to-Disk mode, changes to open files are not lost. The files are left open and memory is kept active during Suspend mode or the memory is transferred to the internal hard drive during Save-to-Disk mode. CAUTION If you are running your notebook on battery power, be aware that the battery continues to discharge while your notebook is in Suspend mode, though not as fast as when fully operational.
S e c t i o n T w o (This group is set from PowerPanel.) ■ Presentation. ■ Green PC. ■ AC Profile. ■ Word Processing. ■ Communication. ■ Games. The activation choices are: ■ System Suspend. ■ System Save-to-Disk. ■ System Standby. ■ Hard Disk Standby. ■ Modem Power Toggle. ■ Video Standby. The factory set Maximum Power Savings profile is designed around trade offs of performance and battery life.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using MAXIMUM BATTERY LIFE PROFILE The Maximum Battery Life profile is a factory installed combination of timeouts and other power savings parameters read directly from the BIOS,and chosen as the settings that will produce the longest possible battery life.
S e c t i o n T w o GAMES PROFILE The Games profile is a factory installed combination of timeouts and other power savings parameters chosen as the settings that will produce superior performance with reasonable battery life when playing games on your notebook. SYSTEM SUSPEND ACTIVATION Clicking on the Suspend button or selecting System Suspend on the PowerPanel menu will put your notebook in Suspend mode. Pressing the Suspend/Resume button turns the power back on and lets you begin where you left off.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using ■ ■ Timing out from lack of activity. Battery level reaching the Dead Battery Warning condition. Your notebook’s system memory typically stores the file(s) on which you are working, the open application(s) and any other data required to support the operation(s) in progress. When you resume operation from Suspend mode, it returns to the point in the operation where it left off, before going into the mode.
S e c t i o n T w o POINT The main advantage of using the Save-toDisk function is that power is not required to maintain your data. This is particularly important if you will be leaving your notebook in a suspended state for a prolonged period of time. The drawback of using Save-to-Disk mode is that it lengthens the power down and power up sequences and resets peripheral devices.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using will cause your notebook to return to normal operation automatically. This feature is independent of the Suspend/Resume button. This parameter is enabled and disabled in the BIOS setup utility. Video Timeout The Video Timeout is one of the power management parameters which saves power by turning off the display if there is no keyboard or pointer activity for the user selected timeout period.
S e c t i o n T w o CAUTION Your internal modem is designed to allow faster downloads from K56flex compliant digital sources. Maximum achievable download transmission rates may not reach 56 Kbps and will vary with line conditions. LapLink software can be used for Infrared file transfers. See your online help for more information.
LifeBo ok 600 Series from Fuji tsu Using All of the pre-installed software can be accessed from the Program folder of the Windows 95 Start menu or from the folders above the ‘Programs’ folder in the Start menu; Communications Software, Internet Software, Multimedia Software, Service and Support Software,and System Management Software. If you aren’t sure what software is pre-installed check the Program folder. If you need assistance with an individual application use their online help.
S e c t i o n T w o CAUTION If you use a speakerphone function, be sure that the microphone setting in the ESS AudioRack is disabled. LapLink LapLink by Traveling Software provides direct file transfers to other computers; data transfers via internal modem,a PC Card modem, the infrared port,a serial cable, or a parallel cable (cables are not included).
