indicator
, is blinking
orange.
Low Battery. Plug in the AC power source. If the computer doesn’t start up immediately, turn it off
then on again.
You are losing battery
power too quickly. The system is using too much power. If your OS has a Power Options scheme (see “Power
Plans” on page 3 - 4 ) check its settings. You may also be using a USB device/external device
that is drawing a lot of power.

time is shorter than
expected. The battery has not been fully discharged before being recharged. Make sure the battery is fully
discharged and recharge it completely before reusing (see
“Battery Information” on page 3 -
10 ).
Check the settings of any active power plan (see “Power Plans” on page 3 - 4 ).
A peripheral device/USB device is consuming a lot of power. Turn off/remove the unused device
to save power.
