red when the battery is not fully charged. You can set the LED to pulse green when
the battery charge level is between 60% and 95% charged.
To modify the battery status LED setting:
1. Select Start > Settings > System > Enterprise Settings .
2. Select Device Settings > Power Management > Battery LED .
3. Choose either 2 charging states (default setting) or 3 charging states
(pulsing) .
4. Tap OK .

When you want to: Do this to save battery power:
Use the computer and the
Low Battery status icon
appears or the Battery
light comes on. Connect the computer to an external power source or save your data,
press the
Power button, and then select Hibernate . After the computer
turns off, remove the battery and insert a fully charged battery.
Stop using the computer
for 5 minutes or longer. Make sure that the low battery icon is not on the screen and the Battery
LED is not on. Press the
Power button and choose Suspend to
suspend the computer.
Store the computer for
more than a day. If you are storing the computer for a few days, like over the weekend,
install a fully charged battery or connect the computer to a power
source.
If you are storing the computer for longer, remove and charge the
battery, and then store both the battery and computer in a cool
location. Do not place the charged battery in the computer, which runs
the battery down over time even when the computer is not in use.
If you store the battery for several months, recharge the battery to keep
it at peak performance.
