Using the Battery Pack
FIVA comes with a standard battery pack when you purchase it. Once
you charge the battery pack, you can use FIVA without being connected
to a power outlet via the AC adaptor. FIVA also has a number of power
management functions that make battery operations more efficient.

See page 33
for details about how to set the battery pack to FIVA, and
page 34
for information about charging the battery pack.
Checking the Current Charge Level of the Battery Pack
The battery pack discharges naturally even when you are not using it.
To prevent the malfunction caused by the wear of battery pack, make
sure you charge the battery pack fully before trying to use it to power
FIVA.
You can use any of the three following methods to check the current
charge level of the battery pack.
• The color of the BAT-LED indicator lamp
• The color of the PW-LED indicator lamp
• Mobile Cockpit
Checking the Battery Indicator Lamp Color
A green
indicator lamp lit while FIVA is being powered by the AC
adaptor indicates that the battery is fully charged.
See page 35
.
When this happens, the “COMPLETE” message is displayed on Mobile
Cockpit’s title bar. Charging is in progress when the
indicator lamp
is orange.
