Monitoring Battery Power
There are two ways to
monitor how much power
the battery has left.
1. Click start/Control
Panel/Power Options;
then click Power Meter.
2. Moving the cursor to
the battery icon on the
taskbar is the simplest
way to check on battery
power status.
If you do not see the battery icon, enable it in Start /Control Panel/Power
Options. Choose the Advanced tab and click “Always show icon on the
taskbar.”
Low Battery Alarms
How your computer responds to a low battery condition is set under
Start/Control Panel/Power Options/Alarms.
Two different power alarms can be enabled or disabled: the Low
Battery Alarm, and the Critical Battery Alarm. Use the slidebar to set
the power level at which the alarms are activated. Click on the Alarm
Action button to choose whether the alarm sounds, displays a
message, or both.
Warning: When battery power is low, the Notebook will display a
warning on the screen. Take immediate action, such as saving files or
connecting to the AC adapter, or data may be lost.
When the computer alerts you that the battery is low, immediately do
one of the following:
•
Connect the AC power adapter
•
Save your work, turn off the computer and replace the
discharged battery with a charged battery (See
Changing the
Battery below).
Do not restart the computer until you have connected to an AC
adapter, or replaced the discharged battery with a charged battery.
