down menu for options.

movie. From these controls, it is possible to add
sub-titles, speed up or slow down, even play movie
related games.

rewind, fast-forward and stop the movie at any point.

the title bar. This will open a DVD Player dialog box.

the DVD Player dialog box and return to the movie.
3. If you are watching a DVD movie in full screen or
cinema mode, right click on the movie and choose
exit from the pop-up menu.
USING THE DVD PLAYER ON
BATTERY POWER
Since DVD drives consume a lot of power, your overall
battery life will be shorter when operating the DVD drive
continuously (such as watching a DVD movie) than
during standard operation. Many movies run-times are
longer than your 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, add a second modular battery in your Flexible
Bay or attach AC power during the movie to view it
in its entirety.
POINT
For more information on using the Control Panels and
the other options for navigating a movie, review the
CineMaster on-line help file located at C:\ProgramFiles\
Fujitsu\DVDPlayer\DVDPlayer.hlp on your notebook.
CAUTION
Prolonged use of the DVD drive, such as watching a
DVD movie, will substantially reduce your notebook’s
battery life.
