Managing Power 3-5
By Operating System
You can check the approximate battery level using the battery meter
function of the operating system. To read the battery level in Windows
Vista, click the icon on the system tray. To read the battery level in
Windows XP, click the icon on the taskbar. (Click the
icon if the
computer is using AC power.)
By Gas Gauge
On the exterior side of the battery pack is a gas gauge for displaying the
estimated battery charge. When the battery pack is not installed in the
computer and you want to know the battery charge, you can press the
switch with a pointed device to see the corresponding value of indicator
segment that light green. The value of the corresponding green segment
indicates the relative percentage of the battery charge. The battery pack is
fully discharged when you see no segment glowing green.
Replacing the Battery Pack
CAUTION:
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace the
battery only with the computer manufacturer’s optional battery packs. Discard used
batteries according to the dealer’s instructions.
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack.
If you often rely on battery power for a long period of time while
traveling, you may consider the purchase of an additional battery pack
from your dealer and keep it with you in a fully charged state as a backup.
