series of beeps and the built-in
display is blank.
POST has detected a failure
that doesn’t allow the display
to operate.
Contact your support representative.
The display goes blank by itself
after you have been using it.
Power management timeouts
may be set for short intervals
and you didn’t notice the dis-
play come on and go off.
Press any button on the keyboard, or move the mouse to restore operation. If that
fails, push the Power/Suspend/Resume button. (The display may be shut off by
Standby Mode, Auto Suspend or Video Timeout)

blinking, enter your password.
The display does not close. Small object (like a paper clip)
is stuck between the display
and keyboard.
Remove all foreign objects from the keyboard.
The display has bright or dark
spots.
If the spots are tiny and few,
this is normal for a large LCD
display.
This is normal; do nothing.
If the spots are numerous or
large enough to interfere with
your operation needs.
Display is faulty; contact your support representative.
The display is dark when on
battery power.
Power Management utility
default is set on low bright-
ness to conserve power.
Press [Fn] + [F7] to increase brightness or double-click on the battery gauge and
