Power Failures
You turn on your LifeBook
notebook and nothing
seems to happen.
The installed primary
battery is completely
discharged, there is no
optional second battery
installed or there is no
power adapter installed.
Check the Status Indicator Panel to determine the presence and
condition of the batteries. See “Status Indicator Panel” on
page 23. Install a charged battery or a Power adapter.
The primary battery is
installed but is faulty.
Use the Status Indicator panel to verify the presence and condi-
tion of the batteries. See “Status Indicator Panel” on page 23. If a
battery is indicating a short, remove that battery and operate from
another power source or replace that battery.
The battery or batteries
are low.
Check the Status Indicator Panel to determine the presence and
condition of the batteries. See “Status Indicator Panel” on
page 23. Use a Power adapter to operate until a battery is
charged or install a charged battery.
The power adapter (AC
or auto/airline) is not
plugged in properly.
Verify that your adapter is connected correctly. See “Power
Sources” on page 45.
The power adapter (AC
or auto/airline) has no
power from the AC out-
let, airplane seat jack,
or car cigarette lighter.
Move the AC cord to a different outlet, check for a line switch or
tripped circuit breaker for the AC outlet. If you are using an
auto/airline adapter in a car make sure the ignition switch is in the
On or Accessories position.
The power adapter (AC
or auto/airline) is faulty.
Try a different Power adapter or install a charged optional second
battery.
Your LifeBook notebook
turns off all by itself.
The power manage-
ment parameters are
set for auto timeouts
which are too short for
your operating needs.
Press any button on the keyboard, or move the mouse to restore
operation. If that fails, push the Power/Suspend/Resume button.
Check your power management settings, or close your applica-
tions and go to the Power Options Properties located in the Con-
trol Panel to adjust the timeout values to better suit your needs.
