It also displays the remaining battery capacity.
Sleep and Charge
Your computer can supply USB bus power (DC5V) to the USB port even
when the power of the computer is turned OFF. "Power OFF" includes
Sleep Mode, Hibernation Mode or shutdown state. This function can be
used for ports that support the Sleep and Charge function (hereinafter
called "compatible ports"). Compatible ports are USB ports that have the
( ) symbol icon.
You can use the "Sleep and Charge function" to charge certain USB-
compatible external devices such as mobile phones or portable digital
music players.
However, the "Sleep and Charge function" may not work with certain
external devices even if they are compliant with the USB specification. In
those cases, turn the power of the computer ON to charge the device.
