Figure 7.  Status Indicator Panel

Status Indicator Panel

The Status Indicators display symbols that correspond to specific components of your Fujitsu LifeBook 
notebook. The LEDs below each symbol tell you how each of those components is operating. The Status 
Indicators are located in two different areas (Figure 7). Keyboard-related indicators are above the 
keyboard on the right, and the remaining indicators are below the keyboard on the right. Note that when 
the system is in tablet mode, it is not possible to see the keyboard-related indicators; this is fine, since the 
keyboard is not accessible when the system is in tablet mode.
