Setting the Speaker Volume

This setting is retained in memory even when you turn the system off. To lower the volume of the low battery alert, cycle through the volume settings by pressing Fn + F12.

Caution:

If you disable sound or set the Meridian 850’s volume too low, you may not be able to hear the low-battery warning.

Note: Some settings such as BIOS errors and unknown system problems will always beep at maximum volume.
