Status Indicator Panel
The Status Indicator displays symbols that
correspond with a specific component of your
Fujitsu LifeBook notebook. These symbols tell
you how each of those components are
operating. (Figure 2-9)
POWER INDICATOR
The Power indicator symbol states whether your
system is operational. It has several different
states, each of which tells you the mode your
notebook is in.
• Steady On: This means that there is power
to your LifeBook notebook and that it is ready
for use.
• Flashing: This means that your LifeBook
notebook is in Suspend mode.
• Steady Off: This means that your system is
either in Save-to-Disk mode, or that your
LifeBook notebook has been turned off.

If you are charging your battery, the Power
indicator will remain on even if your notebook is
shut off.
AC ADAPTER INDICATOR
The AC Adapter indicator states whether your
notebook is operating from the AC adapter or
the batteries. This icon has two different states
that can tell you what power source your LifeBook
notebook is using.
• On: This means that AC adapter power
source is currently in use.
• Off: Power is only coming from the batteries,
and you do not have an adapter connected.
