to the computer reaches a low-battery condition
■ The system beeps five times.
■ The battery light

enter a critical low-battery condition. In a critical low-battery
condition,
■ If Hibernation is enabled and the computer is on or in
Suspend (Standby)—The computer beeps twice, then
initiates Hibernation. Hibernation is enabled by default.
■ If Hibernation is disabled and the computer is on or in

power/suspend light
