USING DOLBY
HEADPHONE
The Dolby Headphone utility lets you enjoy multi-
channel sound sources, such as movies, with realistic
surround sound using conventional stereo headphones.
Dolby Headphone is a signal processing system that
enables your stereo headphones to realistically portray
the sound of a five-speaker playback system
.
To use Dolby Headphones, perform the following:
1. Insert the disc in the optical drive tray. When you
do so, PowerDVD will start automatically.
2. Place your cursor over the Fujitsu logo on the
PowerDVD control panel and click on it. If the disc
supports Dolby Surround 5.1, a menu will appear.
3. Verify that Dolby headphones is checked on the
menu. If you do not want it active, select Disable.
USING THE DRIVE ON BATTERY POWER
Since optical drives consume a lot of power, your overall
battery life will be shorter when operating the optical
drive continuously (such as watching a DVD movie).
Many movie run-times are longer than your LifeBook
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 or attach AC
power during the movie to view it in its entirety.
To Watch a Movie on Battery Power:
1. Have an additional fully-charged battery or your AC
adapter ready for use.
2. Start watching your DVD movie.
3. When the low battery warning occurs, immediately
stop the movie and exit the optical player
.
4. Manually place your notebook into suspend mode
by depressing the Suspend button. Plug in a power
adapter and replace the discharged battery with an
additional fully-charged battery. If you do not have
an additional battery, you may use the AC power
adapter as your power source to continue watching
the movie while recharging the installed battery.
5. Resume your notebook by pressing the Suspend
button again. This step is not required if you
attached AC power without entering suspend mode.
6. Restart your optical drive, locate and skip to the
chapter of the movie you were last watching.
7. Continue watching your DVD movie.
AUTO INSERT NOTIFICATION FUNCTION
The Auto Insert Notification function allows your Life-
Book notebook to automatically start a DVD/CD as soon
as it is inserted in the optical drive and the tray is closed.
Your notebook will begin playing an audio DVD/CD or
will start an application if the DVD/CD includes an auto
run file.
To prevent a CD from playing automatically as soon as
it is inserted, refer to the related help file for your
specific operating system.
Media discs which do not have the
Dolby Surround 5:1 symbol will not
support Dolby Headphone.
After making changes to Dolby Head-
phone and clicking OK, wait at least 10
seconds before making another change
in order to allow the system to stabilize.
Prolonged use of the optical drive, such as
watching a DVD movie, will substantially
reduce your battery life. Many movie run-
times are longer than your system 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 or attach AC power
during the movie to view it in its entirety.
An additional battery is recommended if
you will be watching DVD movies on
battery power. If you don’t have an
additional battery, you may purchase one
either on-line at: www.shopfujitsu.com or
call 1-877-372-3473.
If you don’t stop the optical drive quickly
and the notebook attempts to auto-
suspend (critical battery low state) the
notebook will shut down improperly. If this
occurs, you will need to power the system
up with the power/suspend/resume button
and follow any instructions that appear.
Some shorter DVD movies may not require
you to swap batteries or attach AC power
to complete them. However, it is best to be
prepared since actual battery life while
operating the optical drive cannot be
guaranteed.
