installed, see the instructions contained in “Using the
optional optical drive” on page 8.
FRONT/RIGHT SIDE COMPONENTS
The following is a brief description of the port replicator’s
front and right side components. (Figure 2)

Air Vents
Air vents are used to cool the system to prevent overheating.
ATTACHING THE PORT REPLICATOR
The port replicator can be attached to your notebook while
the power is on, while in suspend mode, or while the power
is off.
1. Unplug the AC adapter from the system if it is connected
and any other connectors that are attached to the back
of the system.
To protect your notebook and/or port replicator
from damage and to optimize performance, be
sure to keep all air all vents unobstructed,
clean, and clear of debris. This may require
periodic cleaning, depending upon the
environment in which the system is used.
Do not operate the notebook in areas where the
air vents can be obstructed, such as in tight
enclosures or on soft surfaces like a bed.
The AC adapter must be plugged into the port
replicator in order to use all of the ports. If the
adapter is connected to the system, several of
the port replicator ports will not be usable.

MEDIA PLAYER SOFTWARE
The optical disk drive and media player software let you play
DVDs and CDs on your notebook. The media player
includes controls which allow you to take full advantage of
the DVD movie features, as well as standard features like fast
forward, fast reverse, pause, etc. With this drive you can also
burn onto recordable discs.
LOADING MEDIA ON YOUR DRIVE
To load a disc into your optical drive: (Figure 6)
1. Push and release the eject button on the front of the
optical drive to open the holder tray. The tray will come
out of the port replicator a short distance.
2. Gently pull the tray out until a media disc can easily be
placed in the tray.
Do not operate your optical drive unless your
LifeBook notebook is sitting on a flat surface.
Using a drive when the system is not level may
damage the drive or prevent proper operation.
You should periodically check the Fujitsu
website at:
http://www.us.fujitsu.com/computers
for current updated drivers.

3. Place the media into the tray, label side up, with the hole
in the center of the disc. Snap the disc onto the raised
circle in the center of the tray.
4. Gently push the holder tray back in until you hear a
click. (Figure 6)
• All LifeBook DVD players are set to play DVD
titles with region code number 1 which is
specified for the North American market. The
region number is a regional restriction code
defined by the DVD Forum acting on Holly-
wood requirements. Different region codes
are recorded on video DVD titles for publica-
tion in different areas of the world. If the
regional code of the DVD player does not
match the regional 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 region code
entered becomes permanent, and cannot be
changed.
If you have disabled the Auto Insert
Notification Function, you will have to start
the drive from your desktop, since your
LifeBook notebook will not automatically
recognize that media has been loaded.
