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 Hardware and Sound >
Power Options > Adjust Screen Brightness. 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.
