Using the Optical Drive on Battery Power
Since an optical drive consumes a lot of power, your overall battery life will be shorter when operating
the drive continuously (such as watching a DVD movie) than during standard operation. Many movies
run-times are longer than your LIFEBOOK notebook can support on a single battery. If you are watching
a DVD movie on battery power you may need to swap in an additional, charged battery or attach AC
power during the movie to view it in its entirety.
To Watch a Movie on Battery Power:
1
Have an additional full-charged battery or your AC adapter ready for use.
2
Start watching your DVD movie.
3
If a low battery warning occurs, immediately stop the movie and exit the DVD/CD-RW application
.
4
Connect an AC Adapter to your system, or install a fully charged battery in the Flexible Bay (after removing any
modular devices that may be present in the bay) prior to removing the main battery.
