Using the Notebook PC 4
WARNING! Suspend-to-RAM (STR) does not last long when the battery power is de-
pleted. Suspend-to-Disk (STD) is not the same as power OFF. STD requires a small
amount of power and will fail if no power is available due to complete battery deple-
tion or no power supply (e.g. removing both the power adapter and battery pack).
NOTE: If you ignore the low battery warning, eventually the Notebook PC enters sus-
pend mode (Windows default uses STR).
WARNING! Never attempt to remove the battery pack while the power is ON, or if the
system has not yet entered into the suspend mode as this may result in the data loss.
Move your mouse over the battery icon for
remaining power information.
Right-click the battery icon for sub-menus.
When the AC power is connected,
charging status will be shown.
Left-click the battery icon for power
management settings.
Using Battery Power
A fully-charged battery pack provides the Notebook PC a few hours of working power. But the actual
figure varies depending on how you use the power saving features, your general work habits, the CPU,
system memory size, and the size of the display panel.
Checking Battery Power
To check the remaining battery power, move your cursor over the power icon. The power icon is a
“battery” when not using AC power and a “plug” when using AC power. Double click on the icon for
more information and settings.
