Volume Control
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has multiple volume
controls which interact with each other.
CONTROLLING THE VOLUME
There is the hardware volume control located on the
LifeBook notebook itself, and the volume control set
from within the Volume Control on the Taskbar. In
addition to those, there are also application volume
controls that are set individually within each program.
Each source discussed above puts an upper limit on the
volume level that must then be followed by the other
sources. For example:
■ Your hardware volume control is all the way down,
therefore your individual software application’s
volume control has no effect on the volume.
We recommend that you use the hardware volume
controls to set the upper limit for the sound level and
then make fine adjustments with the Volume Control
on the Taskbar and individual application software.
SETTING THE HARDWARE
VOLUME CONTROL
1. Turn the volume control knob to the right (i.e.,
towards the back of your LifeBook) to increase the
volume.
2. Turn the volume control knob to the left (i.e.,
towards the front of your LifeBook) to decrease the
volume. (See figure 2-5 on page 10 for location)
P O I N T
Any software that contains audio files will also contain
a volume control of its own. Both the main LifeBook
notebook volume control and the software volume con-
trol will interact with each other, but it should be noted
that if you set your software volume to Off, you will
override the main volume control setting and the soft-
ware setting will control the maximum knob setting.
