3 If a low battery warning occurs, immediately stop the movie and exit the DVD/CD-RW application.
4 Connect an AC Adapter to your system, or install a fully charged battery in the Flexible Bay (after removing any
modular devices that may be present in the bay) prior to removing the main battery.
5 Manually place your notebook into Sleep mode by depressing the Suspend button then replace the discharged
battery with a fully-charged battery.
6 If you removed the optical drive from the Flexible Bay in step 4, reinstall it now.
7 Resume your notebook by pressing the Suspend button again. This step is not required if you attached AC
power without entering Sleep mode.
8 Restart your DVD/CD-RW application and skip to the chapter of the movie you were last watching.
9 Continue watching your DVD movie.
Auto Insert Notification Function
The Auto Insert Notification function allows your LifeBook notebook to automatically start a DVD/CD
as soon as it is inserted in the optical drive and the tray is closed. Your notebook will begin playing an
audio DVD/CD or will start an application if the DVD/CD includes an auto run file.
To prevent a CD from playing automatically as soon as it is inserted, refer to the related help file for your
specific operating system.
IF YOU DO NOT STOP THE OPTICAL DRIVE QUICKLY AND THE LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK ATTEMPTS TO AUTO-
SUSPEND (CRITICAL BATTERY LOW STATE) THE NOTEBOOK WILL SHUT DOWN IMPROPERLY. IF THIS
OCCURS, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTALL A FRESH POWER SOURCE (EITHER A CHARGED BATTERY OR AC
A
DAPTER).
S
OME SHORTER DVD MOVIES MAY NOT REQUIRE YOU TO SWAP BATTERIES OR ATTACH AC POWER TO
COMPLETE THEM. HOWEVER, IT IS BEST TO BE PREPARED SINCE ACTUAL BATTERY LIFE WHILE
OPERATING THE OPTICAL DRIVE CANNOT BE GUARANTEED.
