USING THE MEDIA PLAYER ON
BATTERY POWER
Since media player drives consume a lot of power, your
overall battery life will be shorter when operating the
media player drive continuously (such as watching a
DVD movie) than during standard operation. Many
movies run-times are longer than your LifeBook note-
book 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 full-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 media player.
4. Manually place your notebook into suspend mode
by depressing the Suspend button and replace the
discharged battery with an additional full-charged
battery. Or if you do not have an additional battery,
you may attach AC power as soon as you see the low
battery warning.
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 media player, 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 media player 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.
Disabling Auto Insert Notification Function
To disable the Auto Insert Notification function, follow
these easy steps:
1. Save all data and close all open applications.
2. From the Start menu, select Settings, and then select
Control Panel.
3. Double-click the System icon. This will open the
System Properties dialog box.
4. Select the Device Manager tab to display the device
lists for your notebook.
CAUTION
Prolonged use of the media player drive, such as
watching a DVD movie, will substantially reduce your
notebook’s 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.
POINT
An additional fully-charged battery is highly
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.fujitsupc.com or call 1-877-372-3473.
CAUTION
If you do not stop the media player quickly and the
LifeBook notebook attempts to auto-suspend (critical
battery low state) the notebook will shut down
improperly. If this occurs, you will need to perform a
hard reset and follow the instruction, if any, presented
to you before the system will reboot.
POINT
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 media player drive cannot be
guaranteed.
