Battery Use

SECTION 4

Low Battery Warning

The red LED turns on if the batteries will be completely drained within a few minutes.

The operating system (Windows 98) and the hardware deter mine low battery pack condition.

The batteries will, of course, drain faster if the PC card slot is in use, the hard drive is accessed, floppy drive is in use, or other peripherals are attached.

Continued operation of the pen computer in low battery condi tion automatically executes a suspend-to-disk condition (re gardless of setup setting), then shuts off the power.

The contents of memory are saved in the suspendtodisk partition on the hard disk. Afterwards, do not turn on the pen computer power until you have either connected the AC adapter or you have installed a fully charged external battery pack.
