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 battery LED power indicator , is
blinking orange.
Low Battery. Plug in the DC power source. If the computer doesn’t start up
immediately, turn it off then on again.
You are losing battery power too quickly. The system is using too much power. If your OS has a Power Options scheme
(see “Power Plans” on page 3 - 4 ) check its settings. You may also be using
an ExpressCard/USB device/external device that is drawing a lot of power.
Actual battery operating time is shorter
than expected.
The battery has not been fully discharged before being recharged. Make sure
the battery is fully discharged and recharge it completely before reusing (see
“Battery Information” on page 3 - 10 ).
Power Options have been disabled. Go to the Control Panel in Windows and
re-enable the options.
A peripheral device/USB device/ ExpressCard is consuming a lot of power. Turn
off/remove the unused device to save power.
