Problem
Possible Cause - Solution
You turned on the power
but it doesn’t work.
Battery missing / incorrectly installed. Check the battery bay, make sure the battery is
present and seated properly (the design of the battery only allows it to go in one way).
Make sure there’s nothing interfering with the battery contacts.
The LED power indicator
, is blinking green.
Low Battery. Plug in the AC power source. If the computer doesn’t start up immediately,
turn it off then on again.
The various LEDs are lit,
but no picture appears.
The suspend/resume key combination, Fn + Esc, or other configured key combination,
has been toggled. Press Fn + Esc, or other configured key combination. Wait a few
moments before trying this control again.
You are losing battery
power too quickly.
The system is using too much power. If your OS has a Power Options scheme (see
“Enabling Power Options” on page 3 - 18
) check its settings. You may also be using a
PC card device that is drawing a lot of power.
The notebook feels too
hot.
Make sure the notebook is properly ventilated and the fan port is not blocked. If this
doesn’t cool it down, put the system into Hibernate mode or turn it off for an hour. Make
sure the vents aren’t blocked and the computer isn’t sitting on a thermal surface (see
). Make sure you’re using the correct adapter.
