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 LifeBook notebook.
2
Push down until you hear a click. This will engage the locking mechanism and prevent your display panel from
opening unexpectedly.
