You will be warned when battery power is low. If you continue

to ignore the low battery warnings, the Notebook PC eventually

enters suspend mode (Windows default uses STR).

Screen captures shown here are examples only and may not

reflect what you see in your system.

Checking Battery Power

The battery system implements the Smart Battery standard under

the Windows environment, which allows the battery to accurately

report the amount of charge left in the battery. A fully-charged

battery pack provides the Notebook PC a few hours of working

power. But the actual figure varies depending on how you use the

power saving features, your general work habits, the CPU, system

memory size, and the size of the display panel.

WARNING! Suspend-to-RAM (STR) does not last long when the

battery power is depleted. STR is not the same as power OFF.

STR requires a small amount of power and will fail and lose data

if no power is available due to complete battery depletion or

no power supply (e.g. removing both the power adapter and

battery pack).
