The Power Meter tab displays the current power source and amount of
battery charge remaining.
If the computer is connected to an electrical outlet, the icon appears.
Battery Charge Gauge
Before you attach the battery charger to the battery, press the status button
on the battery charge gauge to illuminate the charge-level lights. Each light
represents approximately 20 percent of the total battery charge. For
example, if the battery has 80 percent of its charge remaining, four of the
five lights are on. If no lights appear, the battery has no charge.
Low-Battery Warning
NOTICE: To avoid losing or corrupting data, save your work immediately
after a low-battery warning. Then connect the computer to an electrical outlet.
If the battery runs completely out of power, hibernate mode begins
automatically.
A pop-up window warns you when the battery charge falls below a certain
percentage that is set in the Power Options Properties window. For more
information on low-battery alarms, see “Power Management” in your online
User’s Guide.
