Using the Drive on Battery Power
Since optical drives consume a lot of power, your overall battery life will be shorter when operating the
optical drive continuously (such as watching a DVD movie). Many movie run-times are longer than your
LIFEBOOK notebook can support on a single battery. If you are watching a DVD m ovie on battery power
you may need to swap in an additiona l, charged battery or attach AC power during the movie to view it in
its entirety.
