1.4 The Two System LEDs

The two System LEDs provide an alternate way to indicate power status of your system
unit as also provided by the Power LED as described in Chapter 1.3. The table below
illustrates how these two System LEDs behave in different situations.

The system is running on AC power and the battery
is not inserted, or

The battery is fully charged.

Incidentally when both LEDs are lit up steady in their respective colors, the battery pack is

These Two System LEDs are located at rear side of the LCD display. For the
exact location, please refer to the Top View diagram in Chapter 1.2.

For more details on Sleep and Hibernate, please refer to Power Options in the
