The battery or batteries are low. Check the Status Indicator Panel to determine the
presence and condition of the batteries. (See Status
Indicator Panel on page 11 for more information) Use
a Power adapter to operate until a battery is charged
or install a charged battery.

auto/airline) is not plugged
in properly.
Verify that your adapter is connected correctly. (See
Power Sources on page 27 for more information)
The Power adapter (AC
or auto/airline) has no
power from the AC outlet,
airplane seat jack, or the car’s
