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 three ways to adjust the brightness, by using the
keyboard, the Power Options, or the Windows Mobility Center.

Using the Keyboard

• [Fn+F6]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness of your display.
• [Fn+F7]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the brightness of the display.

Using the Power Options

To change the brightness using the Power Options utility, open the Control Panel and click on the Power
Options icon. At the bottom of the window, drag the Screen brightness: bar to the left or right, depending
upon your preference. Note that the settings you make via this utility become permanent until you decide
to change them again.

Using the Windows Mobility Center

Click Start -> Control Panel. In View by:, select one of the icon views. Select Display, then click Adjust
brightness in the left pane. At the bottom of the window, drag the Screen brightness: bar to the left or
right, depending upon your preference.
