The optional Quick Point device consists of a cursor
control button at the lower center of the keyboard. It is
roughly the same size and shape as a pencil eraser. The
cursor control works the same way a mouse ball does,
and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires
light pressure to move; the more pressure you use, the
faster the cursor will move.
When used with the Quick Point button, the middle
Touchpad button allows you to scroll up and down a
screen.
■
If the interval between clicks is too long,
the double-click will not be executed.
■

LifeBook E8000 Notebook
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 different ways:
■
Volume can be set from within the Volume Control on
the Taskbar.
■
Volume can be controlled with the F8 and F9 func-
tions keys. Pressing [F8] repeatedly while holding [Fn]
will decrease the volume of your notebook. Pressing
[F9] repeatedly while holding [Fn] will increase the
volume of your notebook.
■
Volume can be controlled by many volume controls
that are set within individual applications.
■
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 external audio device that
has an independent volume control, the
hardware volume control and the software
volume control will interact with each
other. It should be noted that if you set
your software volume to Off, you will
override the external volume control
setting.
There are 26 levels through which the
function keys cycle.

LifeBook E8000 Notebook
Power Management
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has many options and
features for conserving battery power. Some of these
features are automatic and need no user intervention,
such as those for the internal modem. However, others
depend on the parameters you set to best suit your oper-
ating conditions, such as those for the display bright-
ness. Internal power management for your notebook
may be controlled from settings made in your operating
system, pre-bundled power management application, or
from settings made in BIOS setup utility.
Besides the options available for conserving battery
power, there are also some things that you can do to
prevent your battery from running down as quickly.
For example, you can create an appropriate power saving
profile, put your notebook into Suspend mode when it
is not performing an operation, and you can limit the
use of high power devices. As with all mobile, battery
powered computers, there is a trade-off between
performance and power savings.
POWER/SUSPEND/RESUME BUTTON
When your LifeBook notebook is active, the Power/
Suspend/Resume button can be used to manually put
your notebook into Suspend mode. Push the Power/
Suspend/Resume button when your notebook is active,
but not actively accessing anything, and immediately
release the button. You will hear two short beeps and
your system will enter Suspend mode. (See figure 2-3 on
page 6 for location)
If your LifeBook is suspended, pushing the Power/
Suspend/Resume button returns your notebook to active
operation. You can tell whether the system is Suspended
by looking at the Power indicator. (See figure 2-3 on
page 6) If the indicator is visible and not flashing, your
notebook is fully operational. If the indicator is visible
and flashing, your notebook is in Suspend mode. If the
indicator is not visible, the power is off or your notebook
is in Hibernation mode. (See Hibernation Feature)
SUSPEND MODE
Suspend or Standby mode in Windows saves the
contents of your LifeBook notebook’s system memory
during periods of inactivity by maintaining power to
critical parts. This mode will turn off the CPU, the
display, the hard drive, and all of the other internal
components except those necessary to maintain system
memory and allow for restarting. Your notebook can be
put in Suspend mode by:
■
Pressing the Power/Suspend/Resume button when
your system is turned on.
■
Selecting Standby from the Windows Shut Down menu.
■
Timing out from lack of activity.
■
Allowing the battery to reach the Dead Battery
Warning condition.
Your notebook’s system memory typically stores the file
on which you are working, open application informa-
tion, and any other data required to support operations
in progress. When you resume operation from Suspend
mode, your notebook will return to the point where it left
off. You must use the Power/Suspend/Resume button to
resume operation, and there must be an adequate power
source available, or your notebook will not resume.
■
If you are running your LifeBook note-
book on battery power, be aware that
the battery continues to discharge while
your notebook is in Suspend mode,
though not as fast as when fully opera-
tional.
■
Disabling the Power/Suspend/Resume
button prevents it from being used to
put your LifeBook notebook in Suspend
or Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode.
The resume function of the button can-
not be disabled.
■
The Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to-
Disk) mode should not be used with cer-
tain PC Cards. Check your PC Card doc-
umentation for more information. When
PC Cards or external devices are in use,
Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) mode cannot
return to the exact state prior to suspen-
sion, because all of the peripheral
devices will be re-initialized when the
system restarts.
■
If your LifeBook notebook is actively
accessing information when you enter
the Suspend or Hibernation (Save-to-
Disk) mode, changes to open files are
not lost. The files are left open and
memory is kept active during Suspend
mode or the memory is transferred to
the internal hard drive during Hiberna-
tion mode.
The main advantage of using the
Hibernation (Save-to-Disk) function is that
power is not required to maintain your
data. This is particularly important if you
will be leaving your LifeBook notebook in
a suspended state for a prolonged period
of time. The drawback of using
Hibernation mode is that it lengthens the
power down and power up sequences and
resets peripheral devices.

Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indi-
cator just like the normal Suspend mode. Once your
notebook goes into Dead Battery Suspend mode you will
be unable to resume operation until you provide a
source of power either from an adapter, or a charged
battery. Once you have provided power, you will need to
press the Power/Suspend/Resume button to resume
operation.
In the Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data can be
maintained for some time, but if a power source is not
provided promptly, the Power indicator will stop
flashing and go out, meaning that you have lost the data
that was not stored. Once you provide power, you can
continue to use your notebook while an adapter is
charging the battery.
Shorted Batteries
The Status Indicator panel uses a symbol inside the
battery outline of the Battery Level indicator to display
the operating level available in that battery. (See figure 2-
10 on page 12) If this display shows a Shorted Battery, it
means the battery is damaged and must be replaced so it
does not damage other parts of your LifeBook notebook.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
With the purchase of an additional battery, you can have
a fully charged spare to swap with one that is not
charged. There are two ways to swap batteries, cold-
swapping and hot-swapping:
Cold-swapping Batteries
To cold-swap batteries in your battery bay follow these
easy steps: (Figure 4-1)
1. Have a charged battery ready to install.
2. Shut down your notebook and disconnect the AC
adapter.
3. Unlock the battery by pushing the two release
latches toward the battery pack (Figure 4-1).
4. While pressing the release latches, lift the battery out
of the bay.
5. Insert a new battery into the bay, and press it down
so that the latches click into place.
6. Plug in the AC adapter and turn the power on.
Hot-swapping Batteries
To hot-swap batteries in your battery bay follow these
easy steps: (Figure 4-1)
1. Plug an AC Adapter into the system and connect it
to a power outlet.
Figure 4-1. Removing a Battery
2. Follow steps 3 through 5 in “Cold Swapping
Batteries”.
Be sure to plug in an AC Adapter prior to
removing the battery. There is no bridge
battery present to support the system
while the battery is being replaced. If you
do not use an AC Adapter you will lose
any unsaved files.
If the Lithium ion battery connector is not
fully seated, you may not be able to use
your notebook or charge your battery.

MMC/SD Card
Figure 4-3. Installing a MMC/SD Card
Multimedia Card/
Secure Digital Media
Your LifeBook notebook supports Multimedia cards
(MMC) and Secure Digital (SD) cards, on which you can
store and transfer data to and from a variety of digital
devices. These cards use flash memory architecture,
which means they don’t need a power source to retain
data.
MMC is a flash memory technology that allows you to
record, transfer and share digital content, such as digital
pictures, movies, music, voice, and computer data and
applications.
Secure Digital (SD) Cards are very similar to MMCs. Like
the MMC, SD Cards allow portable storage among a
variety of devices, such as cell phones, GPS systems,
digital cameras, and PDAs. SD Cards transfer data
quickly, with low battery consumption. Like the memory
stick, it uses flash memory architecture.
INSTALLING MMC/SD CARDS
MMC and SD Cards are installed in the MMC/SD Card
slot (Figure 4-3). To install an MMC or SD Card, follow
these steps
:
1. See your MMC or SD Card manual for instructions
on the installation of your card. Some cards may
require that your notebook is off while installing
them.
2. Make sure there is no card currently in the slot. If
there is, see Removing an MMC/SD Card.
3. Insert your PC Card into the slot with the product
label facing up.
4. Push the card firmly into the slot until it is seated in
the connector.
REMOVING AN MMC/SD CARD

(Figure 4-11). Either slot can be used to secure the port
replicator alone. The anti-theft lock slot on the back of
the port replicator can also be used to lock the system
into the port replicator.
Follow the instructions that came with the lock/cable
device for information on its use.
To lock the system to the port replicator:
1. Install the system onto the port replicator as detailed
in “Attaching the Port Replicator”.
2. Slide the anti-theft lock slot on the rear of the port
replicator all the way to the left to lock the system
into place (Figure 4-14).
3. Secure the lock per the instructions that came with
the locking device. Until it is unlocked, the system
and port replicator are locked together.
