Battery Status
Windows 98/ME/2000/XP has an applet in the Control Panel that will display an icon in
the Windows taskbar indicating when the Notebook is running on battery power or is
attached to the AC adapter.
This applet also displays a meter that indicates how much charge is remaining in the
battery.
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 1.5 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.
