Display Panel

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook contains a display panel that is backlit for easier viewing in bright environments and maintains top resolution through the use of active- matrix technology.

OPENING THE DISPLAY PANEL

1.Press the Display Panel latch. This releases the locking mechanism and raises the display slightly.

2.Lift the display backwards, being careful not to touch the screen, until it is at a comfortable viewing angle. (Figure 3-2)

ADJUSTING DISPLAY PANEL BRIGHTNESS

Once you have turned on your notebook, you may want to adjust the brightness level of the screen to a more comfortable viewing level. There are two ways to adjust the brightness, by using the keyboard or the power management utility.

Using the Keyboard

Adjusting the brightness using the keyboard changes the setting only temporarily.

■[FN+F6]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness of your display.

■[FN+F7]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the brightness of the display.

P O I N T

If using AC power your brightness setting is set to it’s highest level by default. If using battery power your brightness settings is set to it’s lowest level by default.

Using the Power Management Utility

Adjusting the brightness using the Power Management changes the setting permanently.

1.Double-click the Battery Icon in the lower right corner of your display. This will open the PMSet 98 Properties dialog box.

2.Select the Power Control tab and adjust your LCD Backlighting to the desired level.

3.Click OK or Apply to permanently change the settings.

You may need to readjust the brightness level periodi- cally depending on your operating environment.

P O I N T

The higher the brightness level, the more power the notebook will consume and the faster your batteries will discharge. For maximum battery life, make sure that the brightness is set as low as possible.

CLOSING THE DISPLAY PANEL

1.Holding the edge of your display panel, pull it forward until it is ﬂush with the body of your notebook.

2.Push down until you hear a click. This will engage the locking mechanism and prevent your display panel from opening unexpectedly.
