You turn on your LifeBook 
notebook and nothing 
seems to happen.
(continued)
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 21. Install a charg
ed 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 21. 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 21. Use a P
ower 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 33.
The power adapter has 
no power from the AC 
outlet, airplane seat 
jack, or 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.
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.
You have a battery 
failure.
Verify the condition of the batteries using the Status Indicator 
panel, and replace or remove any batteries that are shorted. See 
“Status Indicator Panel” on page 21.
