approximately 7 ~ 10 minutes of the usable battery life is left.
You will hear an audible beep signal every 15 seconds alerting you
to the “Battery Low” status. When the battery power reaches the
“Battery Low Low” status the beeping sound will accelerate.
Your battery now has 1 ~ 2 minutes of battery charge remaining.
You must save your data or connect AC power immediately;
otherwise, you may lose your data.

Small Battery for the Real Time Clock

There is a small built-in battery pack that supplies power to the
system in order to maintain certain system information while the
power is off.
If the Notebook is left without a power source for long period of
time, this battery will be exhausted and system information will be
lost.

Danger of explosion if battery is

incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent
type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used
batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never
remove the battery pack while the power is on as this may
result in data loss when the system loses power.

Resetting the System

After installing a software application package, you may be
prompted to reset the system to load the changed operating
environment.
