Troubleshooting
The battery drains quickly or becomes hot
Deep-discharge and recharge the battery.
If this does not correct the problem, the battery should be replaced. When
disposing of the old battery, pay attention to the safety instructions in the section
"Important notes".
The PC's date or time is incorrect
Change the time and/or date in
System Setup
.
If the date and time are repeatedly incorrect when you switch on the
i
notebook, the backup battery that supplies the internal clock is dead.
Connect the notebook via its power supply unit to a grounded wall outlet or
install a fresh battery. The backup battery will charge fully in roughly two
days.
The printer does not print
Makes sure that the printer is switched on and on-line (see the manuals
supplied with the printer).
Check that the printer cable connecting the notebook and the printer is
connected properly.
Make sure that the port you are using to address the printer has been
configured correctly in your application, in Microsoft Windows and in MS-DOS.
Check that the correct printer driver is installed.
Check
System Setup
and
Security Setup
to ensure that the port you are using is
configured correctly. The
COM Port
or
LPT Port
setting, or the
Serial Interface
or
Parallel Interface
setting, should match the settings in your application, in
Microsoft Windows and in MS-DOS.
