LifeBook P1600 Series Notebook
Once your notebook goes into Dead Battery Suspend
mode you will be unable to resume operation until you
provide a source of power either from an adapter, or a
charged battery. Once you have provided power, you will
need to press the Suspend/Resume button to resume
operation. In the Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data
can be maintained for some time, but if a power source
is not provided promptly, the Power indicator will stop
flashing and go out, meaning that you have lost the data
that was not stored. Once you provide power, you can
continue to use your system while an adapter is charging
the battery.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
Your LifeBook P1600 Series notebook comes with one
battery pack; you might want to consider purchasing a
spare. By keeping a spare battery fully charged, you can
immediately swap with one that is not charged.
There are two ways to swap batteries: cold-swapping and
hot-swapping. Cold-swapping means swapping batteries
when the system has been powered down; hot-swapping
is performed when the system is powered by AC power.
Cold-swapping batteries
To cold-swap batteries in your battery compartment,
follow these easy steps: (Figure 4-1)
1. Have a charged battery ready to install.
2. Shut down your system and disconnect the AC
adapter.
3. Lift the display enough to pull the display latch from
the slot.
4. Press the battery release latches to open the
compartment.
5. Remove the battery from the compartment.
6. Slide the new battery into the compartment.
7. Close the compartment and the battery release
latches will click into place.
8. Plug in the AC adapter and turn the power on.
