The Power Properties window only shows the battery charge level if you
are using the battery pack. If you have connected the AC adapter, the
window shows the recharging status of the battery.
NOTE
: If you have just powered on your Aero 1500 Series, or
disconnected it from AC power, the battery gauge may appear blank. Wait
a few moments before checking the battery pack charge.
Low Rechargeable Battery Indicators
When the charge level in the battery pack becomes low, the battery icon
appears in the taskbar. The battery icon gives a graphic representation of
the amount of charge remaining in the battery pack.
Icon
Meaning
Main battery is low.
Main battery is very low.
External (AC) power source is connected and/or main battery is
charging.
Note that when the charge level in the battery pack gets very low, an
exclamation mark (!) appears beside the battery icon.
Shortly after the battery icon explanation mark appears, a warning
message appears to explain that the device cannot continue operating
because of insufficient battery charge, and the device shuts down.
NOTE
: To save power, the backlight is automatically disabled when the
exclamation mark (!) appears beside the battery icon.
