6.4 Battery Button, LEDs and Alarm
After you battery pack is removed from the battery pack compartment, you can find the
battery pack is equipped with a battery button, and four LEDs, with each LED signifying
approximately 25 percent energy level. For detail, refer to table below.
LED Indicators LEDs Lit Energy Level
4 75%~100%
3 50%~74%
2 25%~49%
1 0%~24%
The LEDs will be lit up only when the battery button is pressed. Once you let go of the
battery button, the LEDs would be off. The LED on the extreme left is red in color.
Depends on the type of battery pack (Li-Ion, or NiMH) being used in your notebook, the
external outlook and exact position of the battery button and LEDs may be different.
However, the following rule of thumb governs.
Battery LOW 1
When the battery charge is depleted to approximately its 10-15% level,
the notebook is said to reach the Battery LOW 1 state. The system will
give out three long beeps. And the system will continue to draw power
from the battery pack until the battery pack reaches Battery Low 2 level.
Battery LOW 2
The notebook is said to reach the Battery LOW 2 state, when the battery
is depleted to approximately 5-10% level. In this case, the system will
give out a continuous beep. If Save-To-Disk file has been created and
Suspend Mode (refer to Chapter 11.6) set to Save-To-Disk, Save-To-
Disk will be performed automatically by the system. For detail on Save-
To-Disk file, refer to Chapter 10.1. Without the Save-To-Disk file, you
are having the risk of running out of power soon. If you haven't saved
your work, now is definitely a good time to do so. Otherwise all
modifications you have made since last save will be lost.
