In this chapter, you will learn how to operate your notebook on
battery power and learn about the system’s power saving features.
TFT display, central processor, hard disk drive (optional) are the
major hardware subsystems that consume the most power. Power
management deals how these key components should behave to
conserve power. For example, you can have the system turn off its
display after two minutes of inactivity to save power. Efficient
power management can help you for work longer sessions before
having to recharge the battery.

The Battery Pack

Lithium-Ion Battery

Your notebook uses a six-cell Lithium-Ion battery pack that
provides power when you don’t have access to an AC outlet.

You must charge the battery pack for at

least six hours before using it for the first time.

In the Standby Suspend mode, a fully charged battery loses
its power in roughly 1/2 day or less. When not being used, the
battery’s power will deplete in one to two months.

The battery pack in this system is not removable by the user.

Battery Low-Power Warning

1. Low Battery Warning
Low battery condition occurs when battery power is reduced to 6
percent. The red battery status LED indicator blinks and the
system beeps once every 16 seconds or so.

2. Very Low Battery Warning
Very Low battery condition occurs at 3 percent power remaining.
The red battery status LED indicator blinks and the system beeps
at 4-second interval.
