Power Failures
You turn on your
LifeBook notebook
and nothing seems
to happen.
Your LifeBook
notebook turns off
all by itself.
The installed primary
battery is completely
discharged, there is no
optional second battery
installed or there is no
power adapter installed.
The primary battery is
installed but is faulty.
The battery is low.
The power adapter is not
plugged in properly.
The power adapter has no
power from the AC outlet.
The power adapter is
faulty.
You have a battery failure.

parameters are set for
auto timeouts which are
too short for your
operating needs.
Check the Status Indicator Panel to determine
the presence and condition of the batteries.

Use the Status Indicator panel to verify the
presence and condition of the batteries. If a
battery is indicating a short, remove that

Check the Status Indicator Panel to verify the
presence and condition of the battery. Use an
