Battery Low Signals and Actions

Battery Low occurs when the battery has approximately 10% (Windows default setting)

of its charge remaining. The computer gives warning beeps or messages and the

Battery Power Indicator (

) blinks red to alert you to take actions.

NOTE:

1. You can set up your threshold and signals of Battery Low under Windows.
2. Customers utilizing the secondary battery as the only power source to operate their ML910

RUGGED NOTEBOOK, will not receive a battery discharge cutoff warning during use in
extreme temperatures (above 50ºC and below -10ºC). It is suggested that customers not
rely solely on the secondary battery while operating near these extremes.

Immediately save your data upon receiving a Battery Low alert. The remaining operating
time depends on how you are using the computer. If you are using the audio subsystem,
hard drive or Optical disk drives, the battery may run out very quickly.

Always respond to Battery Low by placing your computer in standby/sleep mode, turning

off the computer, or connecting the AC adapter.

If you do not take any action, the computer will automatically hibernate and turn off.

CAUTION:

If you fail to save your data when the battery completely runs out of charge, then your unsaved

data will be lost.
