The internal battery gauge at the top indicates the remaining
capacity of battery 1,(battery pack) and the battery gauge beĆ
low indicates the remaining capacity of battery 2 (expansion
battery pack).

" Red: 50% to 0%
Tapping on the battery icon starts up the Pen*Key tool,
which can be used to obtain more detailed battery informaĆ
tion. In addition, the icon changes to an AC charger icon
when the pen computer is being powered by the AC adapter.
The remaining capacity of the battery packs can be checked
by tapping on Control Panel" under Settings" in the Start
menu and then double-tapping the Power Management"
icon.
If the AC adapter is connected, the remaining capacity of
the battery packs is not displayed.
"
NOTE: The remaining capacity that is displayed is based on the battery volt-
age; some error in the reading might be present under certain condi-
tions. The length of time a battery can power the system will also
vary according to how the system is used and which applications are
being run, so the indications of the remaining battery capacity should
only be used as an approximation.

NOTE: If a battery pack is being recharged, the display of the remaining
battery capacity will not be accurate.
