Dealing with Problems
Read this section if your computer is not operating properly. Note that some prob-
lems may be caused by the software in your system. If you are ultimately unable to
correct a problem, contact the Panasonic Service Center.
Is the AC adapter plugged into the power supply connector of the computer and
an AC outlet?
Is the battery pack sufficiently charged and mounted correctly?
Does the computer operate normally after it has been restarted by pressing the
reset button?
Power does not come on.
If the low power consumption function has caused the display to dim, pressing
the space bar will restore it.
Have you selected an external display using the Setup program?
Nothing appears on the display
screen.
Can't remember password. Contact the Panasonic Service Center.
"Please run Setup, Press F1" is
displayed.
Pressing causes Windows to start. Exit Windows and restart the computer in
the MS-DOS mode. Type SETUP25 /F. This will restore the Setup program's set-
tings to their default values (except the password settings), then the Setup program
must be run once again for you to input the appropriate operating environment
settings.
Startup
During operation
Date or time display is in-
correct.
Use [Control Panel] in Windows 95 or the DATE and TIME commands in the
MS-DOS mode to set the date/time to their proper values. If problems persist,
contact the Panasonic Service Center.
The clock battery (lithium battery) may be running low on power. Contact the
Panasonic Service Center.
If you are running the computer off the battery pack, the battery may be out of
power. Connect the AC adapter.
Computer stops working.
Red battery indicator lights.
Repeated beeps sound while
the computer is in use.
The battery power is low. Connect the AC adapter or replace the battery pack with
a fully charged battery.
Red battery indicator lights
and a beep sounds.
The battery temperature has risen due to the electrical discharge caused by a large
load. Connect the AC adapter to reduce the load on the battery.
Red battery indicator flashes on
and off.
Are the AC adapter and battery pack both correctly connected? If the red indicator
flashes even after reconnecting them, contact the Panasonic Service Center.
Memory counting speed is very
slow.
Windows start up and processing
speed is very slow.
Type SETUP25 /F. This will restore the Setup program's settings to their default values
(except the password settings), then the Setup program must be run once again for
you to input the appropriate operating environment settings. (The processing speed
depends on the application software used, so this operation may not cause the process-
ing speed to increase.)
