Possible Solutions
Check the power management and/or setup utility
settings in the Power Savings menu and adjust
according to your operating needs.
Turn down the brightness adjustment. The higher
the brightness the more power your display uses.
Replace the batteries.
Replace the batteries.
Restore the notebook to normal operating tempera-
ture. The Charging icon on the Status Indicator
panel will flash when the battery is outside its
operating range.
Enable the button from the setup utility.
Hold the button longer. This may need to be a few
seconds if your application is preventing the CPU
from checking for button pushes.
Close all applications and try the button again.
Set the operating source by pressing the [ESC] key
while the Fujitsu logo is on screen or use the [F2]
key and enter the setup utility and adjust the source
settings from the Boot menu. (See BIOS Setup
Utility on page 27 for more information)
Make sure you have the right password. Enter the
setup utility and verify the Security settings and
modify them as accordingly. (See BIOS Setup Utility
on page 27 for more information)
Use the BIOS setup utility or Primary Master
submenu, located within the Main menu, to try to
auto detect the internal hard drive.
See the Power On Self Test (POST) messages to
determine the meaning and severity of the problem.
Not all messages are errors; some are simply status
indicators. (See Power On Self Test Messages on
page 62 for more information)
Make sure you select Save Changes And Exit when
exiting the BIOS setup utility.
Contact your support representative for repairs.
