CAUTION
Actual battery life will vary based
on screen brightness, applications,
features, power management settings,
battery condition, and other customer
preferences. DVD/CD-ROM drive, hard
drive, and modem usage may also have a
significant impact on battery life.
CAUTION
Do not leave a faulty battery in your
notebook. It might damage your AC
adapter, optional auto/airline adapter,
another battery, or your notebook itself.
It may also prevent operation of your
notebook by draining all available current
into the bad battery.
CAUTION
A shorted battery is damaged and must
be replaced so that it does not damage
anything else.
Shorted Battery
If your Status Indicator panel shows a shorted
battery, check the installation for that battery
by removing and re-installing it. If it still shows
that it is shorted, replace it with a new battery.
Recharging the Battery
If you want to check the condition of the
Lithium ion battery check the Battery Level
indicator located on the Status Indicator
panel. This indicator changes as the battery
level changes.
The Lithium ion battery is recharged internally
using the AC adapter or auto/airline adapter.
To recharge a battery:
■
Make sure the battery to be charged is
installed in the battery bay of your notebook
and the notebook is connected to a
power source.
■
Make sure that the Battery Charging indica-
tor to the left of the Battery Level indicator
is visible on the Status Indicator panel.
