Identifying low battery levels
The computer takes the following actions for a critical battery level:
● If Hibernation is enabled and the computer is on or in the Sleep state, the computer initiates
Hibernation.
● If Hibernation is disabled and the computer is on or in the Sleep state, the computer remains briefly
in the Sleep state, and then shuts down and loses any unsaved information.
Resolving a low battery level
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of losing information when the computer reaches a critical battery level
and has initiated Hibernation, do not restore power until the power light turns off.
Resolving a low battery level when external power is available
▲ Connect to an approved AC adapter.
Resolving a low battery level when a charged battery is available
1. Turn off the computer or initiate Hibernation.
2. Remove the discharged battery, and then insert a charged battery.
3. Turn on the computer.
Resolving a low battery level when no power source is available
▲ Initiate Hibernation.
– or –
Save your work and shut down the computer.
Resolving a low battery level when the computer cannot exit Hibernation
When the computer lacks sufficient power to exit Hibernation, follow these steps:
1. Insert a charged battery or plug the computer into external power.
2. Exit Hibernation by briefly sliding the power switch.
Calibrating a battery
Calibrate a battery under the following conditions:
● When battery charge displays seem inaccurate
● When you observe a significant change in battery run time
Even if a battery is heavily used, it should not need to be calibrated more than once a month. It is also
not necessary to calibrate a new battery.
Step 1: Fully charge the battery
WARNING! Do not charge the computer battery while you are onboard aircraft.
