1-26 Getting to Know Your New Information Tool
As battery power is consumed, the bars disappear. When
one solid blinking bar remains, battery power is almost
used up.
A blinking battery shell in the display indicates that the
battery is charging. Four bars in a box represent one fully
charged battery and eight bars in two boxes represent two
fully charged batteries.
If only bars 1 and 3 appear, the battery status is unknown.
This is caused when the battery is removed and reinserted,
or when a newly charged battery is first inserted. To return
to fully charged status, press
Fn F9 if you have one battery
and
Fn F10
if you have two batteries installed to reset the
battery icon. Be sure to do this only if you know the battery
is fully charged. Four (or eight) bars should appear and the
system should work normally.
If all four bars plus the battery shell are blinking, the
battery needs to be refreshed. To correct this condition,
remove and reinsert the battery, then discharge the battery
completely. Connect the AC adapter and fully charge the
battery. (See the Versa P Series Battery Guide.)
Eight solid blinking bars indicate an abnormal battery
status. The battery pack may not be installed correctly, or
is defective.
