Discharging
The icon shows the charge remaining in
10-percent increments until the charge reaches the
low-battery level.
Low
The battery charge has reached the low-
battery level.
Critically
low
The battery charge has reached the critical battery
level. By default, Windows will display a notification
and put your computer into Hibernation.
When the battery is low, the computer’s Battery Indicator (
) also blinks red
to alert you to take actions.
Always respond to low-battery by connecting the AC adapter, placing your computer
in Hibernation mode, or turning off the computer.
Replacing the Battery Pack
CAUTION:
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace the battery only with the computer
manufacturer’s optional battery packs. Discard used
batteries according to the dealer’s instructions.
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack.
1. Turn off the computer and disconnect the AC adapter.
Skip this step if you are hot swapping the battery pack. (See Hot Swapping
the Battery Pack (Optional) for more information.)
2. Carefully place the computer upside down.
3. Locate the battery pack you want to remove ( on all models or on
select models).
