The battery is too hot to start charging if the light flashes alternately green and orange.
Disconnect the computer from the electrical outlet and allow the computer and the battery
to cool to room temperature. Then connect the computer to an electrical outlet to continue
charging the battery.
NOTE: You can leave the battery in the computer as long as you like. The battery internal
circuitry prevents the battery from overcharging.
