The system will beep once to indicate that it has detected the PC card.
To remove a PC card push the eject button, the button will pop-out, push
the button again to eject the PCMCIA.
When inserting a Type II PC card, make sure the connector is inserted in
the socket. Before ejecting a PC card, ensure that it is not being accessed
by the System.
For example, if the message “Write protect error writing Drive x” is
displayed, the user has to change the write protect switch setting on the
memory card. To change the switch setting, (a) eject the card, (b) change
the switch setting, and (c) re-insert the card.
Always disconnect all telephone lines from the wall outlet before
servicing or disassembling this equipment. To reduce the risk of fire, use

Power Saving Modes
This section contains information on the Notebook’s power system,
including the AC Adapter, the battery system, recharging the battery, and
tips for conserving battery power.
The power system is comprised of two parts, the AC Adapter and the
battery system. The AC Adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to
the DC power required by the computer.
The Battery Power System
A fully charged pack will provide approximately 2.5 hours (Prescott
2.8GHz CPU, power saving mode runs battery mark 4.0.1) of battery life
depending on your system configuration application it runs.
Before using the computer on battery power for the first time, check the
battery status icon on the Windows Toolbar to make sure the battery is
fully charged.
See Battery Status later in this section for a description and explanation of
the Windows Battery icon. Charging the battery takes about 4 hours to
charge when the system is in off state. If possible, always charge the
battery completely.
Removing the Battery Pack
To remove the battery pack from its compartment, please refer to Chapter
Three, Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack.
