Volume Control

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has multiple volume controls which interact with each other.

Controlling the Volume

The volume can be controlled in several ways:

•Volume can be controlled using the [Fn]+[F8] and [Fn]+[F9] key combinations.

•Certain external audio devices you might connect to your system may have hardware volume

controls.

Each source discussed above puts an upper limit on the volume level that must then be followed by the

other sources.

We recommend that you experiment with the various volume controls to discover the optimal sound level.

ANY SOFTWARE THAT CONTAINS AUDIO FILES WILL ALSO CONTAIN A VOLUME CONTROL OF ITS OWN. IF
YOU INSTALL AN EXTERNA L AUDIO DEVICE THAT HAS AN INDEPENDENT VOLUME CONTROL, THE
HARDWARE VOLUME CONTROL AND THE SOFTWARE VOLUME CONTROL WILL INT ERACT WITH EACH
OTHER. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT IF YOU SET YOUR SOFTWARE VOLUME TO OFF, YOU WILL OVERRIDE
THE EXTERNAL VOL UME CONTROL SETTING.

•Volume can be set using the volume

control toggle on the right of the

WLAN switch.

•Volume can be set from within the

Volume Control in the system tray.

•Volume can be controlled by many

volume controls that are set within

individual applications. Figure 14. Volume Control Location
