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.
