vents. For example, do not use the Joybook Lite in bed where a
blanket may inadvertently cover the vents and block the airflow.
Why does my Joybook Lite seem to turn off itself after a certain
period of inactivity?
This is the default setting of the Joybook Lite to conserve battery
power. The Joybook Lite is configured to use the power saving
feature. You can go to
Start
>
Control Panel
>
Mobile PC
>
Power Options
to select your preferred power plan.
Should I drain the battery of my Joybook Lite every time before
charging to retain its capacity?
No. Your Joybook Lite comes with an Lithium-ion (Li-ion)
battery pack. This is one of the newest cell types available. It is
also the lightest battery type currently available on a commercial
basis and can provide more power than other main cell types.
There are no known problems of memory effect with this
battery type and it is the easiest battery type to be maintained.
Display
There is nothing visible on the screen.
Check the Power button indicator.
• If it is not lit up, no power is being supplied to the Joybook
Lite. Connect the power adapter and restart the Joybook Lite.
• If it blinks in white, the Joybook Lite has entered Sleep mode in
order to conserve power. You can press the Power button to
resume from Sleep mode.
• If it lights up in white, the Joybook Lite is being supplied
normally with power. There are two possible causes for the
problem.
• The screen's brightness may have been set too low. Use
the <Fn> + <F6> hotkey combination to increase the
brightness.
• The display may have been switched to use an
connected external display device. Use the <Fn> +
<F7> hotkey combination to switch the display back to
the Joybook Lite or to use simultaneous display.
When I connect the Joybook Lite to an external monitor, the
display is abnormal.
The instructions below will guide you through the
troubleshooting process.
• Use the <Fn> + <F7> function key combination to make
external video signal enabled.
• Refer to the user manual that came with the external monitor
to check the settings.
• Connect the VGA cable to the Joybook Lite and reboot the
system. If there is no display on the external monitor after
system reboot, connect the Joybook Lite to a standard VGA
monitor, and wait until you can see things properly on that
VGA monitor. Then, connect the target display to the Joybook
Lite again.
