Indicator Meaning «3¬Drive in useGreen:Data is being read from or written to the hard-disk drive, the diskette drive, or the drive in the Ultrabay Plus device. When this indicator is on, do not put the computer into standby mode or turn off the computer. Note:Do not move the system while the green drive-in-use light is on. Sudden physical shock could cause drive errors. «4¬Num lockGreen:The numeric keypad on the keyboard is enabled. To enable or disable the keypad, press and hold the Shift key, and press the NumLk (ScrLk) key. «5¬Caps lockGreen:Caps Lock mode is enabled. To enable or disable Caps Lock mode, press the Caps Lock key. «6¬Power onGreen:The computer is on and ready to use. This indicator stays lit whenever the computer is on and is not in standby mode. «7¬Battery statusGreen:The battery is in use and has enough power. The ac adapter has charged the battery completely. Blinking green: The battery is being charged, but still has enough power to operate. (At regular intervals, the indicator light turns off briefly.) Orange:The battery is being charged, but the battery power is still low. Blinking orange: The battery needs to be charged. When the indicator starts blinking orange, the computer beeps three times. «8¬Standby statusGreen:The computer is in standby mode. Blinking green: The computer is entering standby mode or hibernation mode, or is resuming normal operation. «9¬Ultrabay statusGreen:An Ultrabay Plus device is installed and in use. Blinking green: An Ultrabay Plus device is in the process of being detached. Turn off:An Ultrabay Plus device is ready to be attached or detached. Note:If you are using Windows 2000, the Ultrabay status indicator does not blink while an Ultrabay Plus device is being detached. Instead, a message box pops up when the process is completed; then the indicator turns off. Product overview ThinkPad R4049

If the TrackPoint is disabled, select Automatic(orEnabled) to enable it. After you use the TrackPoint, the pointer may drift on the screen for a short time. This drift can occur when a slight, steady pressure is applied to the TrackPoint pointer. This symptom is not a hardware problem. If the pointer stops after a short time, no service action is necessary. If enabling the TrackPoint does not correct the problem, continue with the following: vInteractive Tests-->Mouse Hard-disk driveDiagnostics-->Fixed Disks Diskette drive 1.Diagnostics-->Diskette Drives 2.Interactive Tests-->Diskette (continued) Product overview 50ThinkPad R40

Fn key combinations The following table shows the function of each combination of Fn with a function key. Key combinationDescription Fn+F1 Reserved. Fn+F2 Reserved. Fn+F3 Turn off the LCD display, leaving the screen blank. To turn the LCD display on again, press any key or the TrackPoint stick. Fn+F4 Put the computer in standby mode. To return to normal operation, press the Fn key independently, without pressing a function key. Note:In Windows XP and Windows 2000, this combination of buttons functions as a sleep button. The setting can be changed so that pressing it puts the computer into hibernation mode or even shuts the computer down. Fn+F5 Turn the Bluetooth on or off. Fn+F6 Reserved. Fn+F7 Apply a presentation scheme directly, with no need to start Presentation Director. Fn+F8 Switch the computer screen size between expanded and normal mode if the computer display image is smaller than the physical display. Note:This function is not supported in Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Fn+F9 Turn the Easy Eject on or off. Fn+F10 Reserved. Fn+F11 Reserved. Fn+F12 Put the computer into hibernation mode. To return to normal operation, press the power button for less than four seconds. Note:In Windows 2000 and Windows XP, you can use Fn+F12 for hibernation only if the IBM PM device driver has been installed on the computer. Fn+PgUp Turn the ThinkLight on or off. Fn+Home The computer display becomes brighter. Fn+End The computer display becomes less bright. Fn+Spacebar Enable the FullScreen Magnifier function. Product overview 52ThinkPad R40
Symptom-to-FRU index The symptom-to-FRU index in this section lists symptoms and errors and their possible causes. The most likely cause is listed first, in boldface type. Note:Do the FRU replacement or other actions in the sequence shown in the column headed ªFRU or action, in sequence.º If replacing a FRU does not solve the problem, put the original part back in the computer. Do not replace a nondefective FRU. This index can also help you determine, during regular servicing, what FRUs are likely to need to be replaced next. A numeric error is displayed for each error detected in POST or system operation. In the displays,ncanbeany number. If no numeric code is displayed, check the narrative descriptions of symptoms. If the symptom is not described there, go to ªIntermittent problemsº on page 59.
