Battery Low Warning

When the battery initially reaches the “Battery Low” state, there are approximately 7 to 10 minutes of usable battery life left. You will hear an audible beep signal every 15 seconds alerting you to the “Battery Low” status. When the battery power reaches the “very low” status the beeping sound will accelerate.

Your battery will then have 1 ~ 2 minutes of battery charge remaining. You must save your data or connect AC power immediately, otherwise, you may lose your data.

Small Battery for the Real Time Clock

There is a small built-in button type battery that supplies power to the system in order to maintain certain system information while the power is off. If the notebook is left without a power source for a long period of time, this battery will be depleted and system information will be lost.

Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never remove the battery while the power is on as this may result in data loss when the system loses power.

Resetting the System

After installing a software application package, you may be prompted to reset the system to load the changed operating environment. To reset the system, or “reboot,” press the [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Delete] keys simultaneously. This is known as “warm boot.” This key combination acts as a “software” reset switch when you encounter hardware or software problems, which lock up the notebook. If this key combination does not shut down the notebook, you can reset the notebook by pressing and holding the notebook’s power button for 5-7 seconds.
