When you turn on your notebook be sure
you have a power source. This means that
at least one charged battery is installed, or
that the AC adapter or the auto/airline
adapter is connected and has power.
C A U T I O N
Never turn off your notebook during
Power On Self Test (POST) or an error
message will be displayed when you turn
your notebook on the next time.
(See the Troubleshooting information
on pages 78-80.)

The main Lithium ion battery is not
charged when you purchase your note-
book. Initially you will need to connect
the AC adapter to use your notebook. If
you purchase an optional second Lithium
ion battery, it will not be charged when
you get it; you will need to charge it
prior to use.
When the power switch is turned on, your
notebook performs a Power On Self Test
(POST) to check the internal parts and config-
uration. If a fault is found you will hear a beep
and/or an error message will be displayed.
(See Troubleshooting on pages 78-80.)
Depending on the nature of the problem
you may be able to continue by starting the
operating system or by entering the BIOS setup
utility and revising the settings.
(See BIOS
Guide on page 44 for more information.)
After satisfactory completion of the Power On
Self Test (POST) your notebook will load your
operating system.
(See Boot Menu on pages 91-
94 to see which kind of disk will be the source
.

Booting the System with Windows 98
Second Edition
We strongly recommend that you not attach
any other external devices 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 98 SE Welcome
will begin.
