Monitoring of power condition

As shown in the below table, the Battery, 2nd battery, DC IN and Power
indicators on the system indicator panel alert you to the computer’s
operating capability and battery charge status.

Battery indicator

Check the Battery indicator to determine the status of the main battery and
the 2nd battery indicator to determine the status of the Slice Expansion
Battery. The following indicator lights indicate the battery status:

DC IN indicator

Check the DC IN indicator to determine the power status with the AC
adaptor connected - the following indicator conditions should be noted:

Flashing orange

The battery charge is low, the AC adaptor must be
connected in order to recharge the battery.

Orange

Indicates the AC adaptor is connected and the
battery is charging.

Green

Indicates the AC adaptor is connected and the
battery is fully charged.

No light

Under any other conditions, the indicator does not
light.

If the battery pack becomes too hot while it is being charged, the charge
will stop and the
Battery indicator will go out. When the battery pack’s
temperature falls to a normal range, charging will resume - this process will
occur regardless of whether the computer’s power is on or off.

Green

Indicates the AC adaptor is connected and is
correctly supplying power to the computer.

Flashing orange

Indicates a problem with the power supply. You
should initially try plugging the AC adaptor into
another power outlet - if it still does not operate
properly, you should contact your reseller or dealer.

No light

Under any other conditions, the indicator does not
light.
