Troubleshooting

There may be occasions when you encounter simple setup or operating problems that you can solve on the spot, or problems with peripheral devices that can be solved by replacing the device. The information in this section helps you isolate and resolve some of these straightforward issues and identify failures that require service.

IDENTIFYING THE PROBLEM

If you encounter a problem, go through the following procedure before pursuing complex troubleshooting:

1.Turn off your LifeBook notebook.

2.Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into your note- book and to an active AC power source.

3.Make sure that any card inserted in the PC Card slot is seated properly. You can also remove the card from the slot, thus eliminating it as a possible cause of failure.
