Responding to Low Battery Conditions
The computer generally will notify you when you are reaching a low battery
condition by the following:
•
Four short beeps per minute (unless battery warning is disabled)
The battery low warning is automatically disabled when the AC Adapter is installed
on the notebook regardless of the charge condition of the battery pack.
If the AC adapter is not plugged in within threeminutes of a detected battery low
condition, the notebook enters Suspend mode. When the notebook enters Suspend
Mode, it issues one beep,saves contents of RAM to disk and powers down the unit.
The Notebook returns to the normal operating mode when the power switch is
activated. Unit then recovers RAM information from the hard drive and restores
unit to previous "On" condition.
