Battery Low Warning

When the pack initially reaches the “Battery Low” state approximately 10 ~ 15 minutes of the usable
battery life is left. You will hear an audible beep signal every 5 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.
