Starting Your LifeBook Notebook
Power On
Power/Suspend/Resume Button
The Power/Suspend/Resume button is used to turn on your LifeBook notebook from its off state. Once
you have connected your AC adapter or charged the internal Lithium ion battery, you can power on
your LifeBook notebook.
To turn on your LifeBook notebook from its off state, press the Power/Suspend/Resume button,
located above the keyboard to the right. When you are done working you can either leave your
notebook in Suspend mode, See “Standby Mode” on page 60., or you can turn it off See “Powering
Off” on page 63..
When you power on your LifeBook, it will perform a Power On Self Test (POST) to check the internal
parts and configuration for correct functionality. If a fault is found, your LifeBook notebook will emit
an audio warning and/or an error message will be displayed. See “Power On Self Test Messages” on
page 114. Depending on the nature of the problem, you may be able to continue by starting the
operating system or by entering the BIOS setup utility and revising the settings.
After satisfactory completion of the POST, your notebook will load your operating system.
WHEN YOU TURN ON YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK BE SURE YOU HAVE A POWER SOURCE. THIS MEANS
THAT AT LEAST ONE BATTERY IS INSTALLED AND CHARGED, OR THAT THE AC OR AUTO/AIRLINE
ADAPTER IS CONNECTED AND HAS POWER.
D
O NOT CARRY YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK AROUND WITH THE POWER ON OR SUBJECT IT TO SHOCKS
OR VIBRATION, AS YOU RISK DAMAGING YOUR NOTEBOOK.
