Troubleshooting
There may be occasions when you encounter simple setup or operating problems that you can solve on the
spot, or problems with peripheral devices that can be solved by replacing the device. The information in this
section helps you isolate and resolve some of these straightforward issues and identify failures that require
service.
Identifying the Problem
If you encounter a problem, go through the following procedure before pursuing complex troubleshooting:
1
Turn off your LIFEBOOK Tablet PC.
2
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into your Tablet PC and to an active AC power source.

the card from the slot, thus eliminating it as a possible cause of failure.

Make sure that any devices connected to the external connectors are plugged in properly. You can also
disconnect such devices, thus eliminating them as possible causes of failure.
