stop the movie and exit the DVD player.

button again. This step is not required if you
attached AC power without entering suspend mode.

chapter of the movie you were last watching.
7. Continue watching your DVD movie.

P O I N T
An additional fully-charged battery is highly
recommended if you will be watching DVD movies on
battery power. If you don’t have an additional battery,
you may purchase one either on-line at
FPCDirect.fujitsupc.com or call 1-877-FPCDirect
(1-877-372-3473).
C A U T I O N
If you do not stop the DVD player quickly and the
LifeBook attempts to auto-suspend (critical battery low
state) the LifeBook will shutdown improperly. If this
occurs, you will need to perform a hard reset and follow
the instruction, if any, presented to you before the
system will reboot.
P O I N T
Some shorter DVD movies may not require you to
swap batteries or attach AC power to complete them.
However, it is best to be prepared since actual battery life
while operating the DVD drive cannot be guaranteed.
