Low Battery Conditions
3-5
There are two battery low stages in this
computer. When the battery capacity reaches
7% capacity (about 10 minutes remaining), the
computer enters the first stage of battery-low
warning. At this time the battery low LED found
on the LCD panel flashes and an audible
warning sounds. You can keep the battery
audible warning from ever sounding by disabling
the BATTERY LOW WARNING BEEP option in Setup.
When the battery capacity reaches 4% capacity
(about 2 minutes remaining), a second audible
warning sounds. If the BATTERY LOW SUSPEND
option is enabled in Setup, the computer enters
0V Suspend mode if there is no system activity
or if the AC is not plugged in.
The following actions can maximize the time
before the battery is depleted and minimize the
effect of losing power:
q Set the screen brightness and contrast
control to the lowest possible setting.
q Save your work in progress to minimize the
danger of losing data.
q If you are using a RAM disk, save the
contents of the RAM disk to the hard disk
drive.
