Display Panel
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook contains a display panel
that is backlit for easier viewing in bright environments
and maintains top resolution through the use of active-
matrix technology.
OPENING THE DISPLAY PANEL
1. Push the Display Panel latch to the right. This
releases the locking mechanism, allowing you to
raise the display.
2. Lift the display backwards, being careful not to
touch the screen, until it is at a comfortable
viewing angle.

ADJUSTING DISPLAY PANEL BRIGHTNESS
Once you have turned on your LifeBook notebook, you
may want to adjust the brightness level of the screen to a
more comfortable viewing level. There are two ways to
adjust the brightness, by using the keyboard or the
power management utility.
Using the Keyboard
Adjusting the brightness using the keyboard changes the
setting only temporarily.
■
[Fn+F6]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness
of your display.
■
[Fn+F7]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the
brightness of the display.
CLOSING THE DISPLAY PANEL
1. Holding the edge of your display panel, pull it
forward until it is flush with the body of your Life-
Book notebook.
2. Push down until you hear a click. This will engage
the locking mechanism and prevent your display
panel from opening unexpectedly.
Display Panel Latch
■ When using AC power your brightness
setting is set to its highest level by
default. When using battery power your
brightness setting is set to approximately
mid-level by default.
■ The higher the brightness level, the
more power the notebook will consume
and the faster your batteries will dis-
charge. For maximum battery life, make
sure that the brightness is set as low as
possible.
