Fixing a Low-Battery Condition

Tip

If you will not be using your Notebook for an extended

period of time, Compaq recommends that you unplug the
electrical cord from the outlet and remove the battery while your
Notebook is not in use.

A low-battery condition exists
when the battery has less than 10
percent of its power remaining.
This section will show you how to
correct a low-battery condition
and what to do if your Notebook
loses all battery power.

When your Notebook loses all battery power, it begins
Hibernation, a process that cannot be interrupted. If Hibernation
has begun, you must allow your Notebook to finish saving your
information and shut off automatically before you try to correct
the low-battery condition.

The availability of an AC wall outlet will determine which
solution you should use to correct a low-battery condition.

Use one of the following options:

Connect the AC Adapter

Replace the Drained Battery with a Charged One

Suspend Your Work
