Volume Control
Your LifeBook notebook has multiple volume controls
which interact with each other.
CONTROLLING THE VOLUME
The volume can be controlled in several different ways:
■
Volume can be set using the Volume button, which is
located below the right hinge of the display. To lower
the volume, press the left side of the button; to
increase the volume, press the right side of the button.
■
Volume can be set from within the Volume Control
on the Taskbar.
■
Volume can be controlled by many volume controls
that are set within individual applications.
■
Certain external audio devices you might connect to
your system may have hardware volume controls.
Each source discussed above puts an upper limit on the
volume level that must then be followed by the other
sources.
We recommend that you experiment with the various
volume controls to discover the optimal sound level.
Any software that contains audio files will
also contain a volume control of its own. If
you install an external audio device that
has an independent volume control, the
hardware volume control and the software
volume control will interact with each
other. It should be noted that if you set
your software volume to Off, you will
override the external volume control
setting.
