Display Panel
Your Fujitsu LifeBook contains a display panel that is
backlit for easier viewing in bright environments and
maintains top resolution through the use of active-
matrix technology.
OPENING THE DISPLAY PANEL
1. Slide the latch located at the top of the display panel
to the right. This releases the locking mechanism
and raises
the display slightly.
2. Lift the display backwards, being careful not to
touch the screen, until it is at a comfortable
viewing angle.
ADJUSTING DISPLAY PANEL BRIGHTNESS
Once you have turned on your LifeBook, you may want
to adjust the brightness level of the screen to a more
comfortable viewing level. There are two ways to adjust
the brightness, keyboard and power management utility.
Keyboard
Adjusting the brightness using the keyboard changes the
setting only temporarily.
■ [FN+F6]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the
brightness of your display.
■ [FN+F7]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the
brightness of the display.
Power Management Utility
Adjusting the brightness using the Power Management
changes the setting permanently.
1. Double-click the Battery icon in the lower right
corner of your display. This will open the PMSet 98
Properties dialog box.
2. Select the Power Control tab and adjust your
LCD Backlighting to the desired level.
3. Click OK or Apply to permanently change
the settings.
You may need to readjust the brightness level periodi-
cally depending on your operating environment.
CLOSING THE DISPLAY PANEL
1. Holding the edge of your display panel, pull it
forward until it is flush with the body of your Life-
Book.
2. Push down until you hear a click. This will engage
the locking mechanism and prevent your display
panel from opening unexpectedly.

P O I N T
If using AC power, your brightness setting is set to its
highest level by default. If using battery power, your
brightness settings is set to its lowest level by default.
P O I N T
The higher the brightness level, the more power the
LifeBook will consume and the faster your batteries
will discharge. For maximum battery life, set the bright-
ness to as low a level as possible.
