You turn on your
LifeBook notebook and
nothing seems to
happen. (continued) The power adapter (AC or auto/
airline) is not plugged in properly. Verify that your adapter is connected correctly. (See
Power Sources on page 25 for more information)
The Power adapter (AC or auto/
airline) has no power from the
AC outlet, airplane seat jack, or
the car’s cigarette lighter. Move the AC cord to a different outlet, check for
a line switch or tripped circuit breaker for the AC
outlet. If you are using an auto/airline adapter in
a car make sure the ignition switch is in the On or
Accessories position.
The Power adapter (AC or auto/
airline) is faulty. Try a different Power adapter or install a charged
optional second battery.
Power switch is not in the
On position. Slide your power switch firmly to the Off position,
pause 10 seconds or more and then slide it firmly to
the On position.
Your LifeBook note-
book turns off all by
itself. The power management parame-
ters are set for auto timeouts
which are too short for your
operating needs. Press any button on the keyboard, or move the
mouse to restore operation. If that fails, push the
Suspend/Resume button. Check your power
management settings, or close your applications and
go to the Power Savings menu of the setup utility to
adjust the timeout values to better suit
your operation needs.
You are operating on battery
power only and have ignored a
low battery alarm until the
batteries are all at the dead battery
state and your machine has gone
into Dead Battery Suspend mode. Install a power adapter and then push the Suspend/
Resume button.
(See Power Sources on page 25 for
more information)
You have a battery failure. Verify the condition of the batteries using the
Status Indicator panel, and replace or remove
any batteries that are shorted.
(See Status Indicator
Panel on page 13 for more information)
Your power adapter has failed or
lost its power source. Make sure the adapter is plugged in and the outlet
has power.
Your LifeBook note-
book will not work on
battery alone. The installed batteries are dead. Replace the battery with a charged one or install a
Power adapter.
No batteries are installed. Install a charged battery.
The batteries are improperly
installed. Verify that the batteries are properly connected by
re-installing them.
Your installed batteries
are faulty. Verify the condition of the batteries using the
Status Indicator panel and replace or remove
any batteries that are shorted.
(See Status Indicator
Panel on page 13 for more information)
The batteries seem to
discharge too quickly. You are running an application
that uses a great deal of power
due to frequent hard drive or
media player drive access, use of a
modem card or a LAN PC card. Use both the primary battery and an optional
second battery and/or use a power adapter for this
application when at all possible.
