Adjusting Display Panel Brightness
Once you have turned on your LifeBook notebook, you may want to adjust the brightness level of the
screen to a more comfortable viewing level. There are three ways to adjust the brightness: by using the
keyboard, the Power Options, or the Windows Mobility Center.
Using the Keyboard
• [Fn+F6]: Pressing repeatedly will lower the brightness of your display.
• [Fn+F7]: Pressing repeatedly will increase the brightness of the display.
Using the Power Options
To change the brightness using the Power Options utility, open the Control Panel and click on Hardware
and Sound > Power Options > Adjust Screen Brightness. At the bottom of the window, drag the Screen
brightness: bar to the left or right, depending upon your preference. Note that the settings you make via
this utility become permanent until you decide to change them again.
Using the Windows Mobility Center
Click Start -> Control Panel. In View by:, select one of the icon views. Select Display, then click Adjust
brightness in the left pane. At the bottom of the window, drag the Screen brightness: bar to the left or
right, depending upon your preference.
Closing the Display Panel
1 Holding the edge of your display panel, pull it forward until it is flush with the body of your LifeBook notebook.
2 Push down until you hear a click. This will engage the locking mechanism and prevent your display panel from
opening unexpectedly.
• WHEN USING AC POWER YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTING IS SET TO ITS HIGHEST LEVEL BY DEFAULT. WHEN USING
BATTERY POWER YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTING IS SET TO APPROXIMATELY MID-LEVEL BY DEFAULT.
• THE HIGHER THE BRIGHTNESS LEVEL, THE MORE POWER THE NOTEBOOK WILL CONSUME AND THE FASTER
YOUR BATTERIES WILL DISCHARGE. FOR MAXIMUM BATTERY LIFE, MAKE SURE THAT THE BRIGHTNESS IS SET
AS LOW AS POSSIBLE.
