LOADING MEDIA ON YOUR DRIVE
To load a disc into your optical drive:
1. Before using the optical drive, be sure to connect the
Docking Station to an AC Adapter or install a high-
capacity battery. The optical drive requires too
much power to be run on the standard 3-cell
battery.
2. Push and release the eject button on the front of the
optical drive to open the holder tray (Figure 4-14).
The tray will come out of the LifeBook notebook a
short distance.

2. Gently pull the tray out until a media disc can easily
be placed in the tray (Figure 4-15).
• Due to the power demands of an optical
drive, when using the integrated optical
drive in the LifeBook Q2010 Docking
Station you must power it using either
the AC Adapter or a high capacity (4- or
6-cell) battery. The dock-based optical
drive will not operate using a 3-cell
battery; this feature ensures that
sufficient battery power is available for
normal operational tasks. Please note
that the use of an optical drive will
noticeably impact the battery life you
will experience.
• Do not operate your optical drive unless
your LifeBook notebook is sitting on a
flat surface. Using a drive when the sys-
tem is not level may damage the drive or
prevent proper operation.
■
Install your media player software
before first using the optical drive.
Refer to the applicable readme file on
the Driver Applications CD-ROM.
■
You should regularly check the Fujitsu
website at: http://
www.computers.us.fujitsu.com/
support for current updated drivers.
■
All LifeBook DVD players are set to play
DVD titles with region code number 1
which is specified for the North Amer-
ican market. The region number is a
regional restriction code defined by the
DVD Forum acting on Hollywood
requirements. Different region codes
are recorded on video DVD titles for
publication in different areas of the
world. If the regional code of the DVD
player does not match the codes on the
titles, then playback is impossible.
■
You can change the region code on the
DVD player using the Properties menu
of the DVD software. Note, however,
that you can only change the region
code up to four times. After the fourth
change, the last code entered becomes
permanent, and cannot be changed.
There may be a protective sheet in the tray
from when it was shipped; please make
sure it is removed before operating the
drive.
