Panasonic CF-T2 Series Check the Remaining Battery Power

Battery Power

NOTE

zThis computer prevents overcharging of the battery by recharging only when the

remaining power is less than approx. 95% of capacity after the battery is fully charged.

There are three methods to check the remaining battery power.

zPress

Fn

+

F9

. (After logging on to Windows)(Îpage 39)

zCheck the Windows battery meter. (After logging on to Windows)(Îpage 39)

zCheck the number of lighting LED indicators. (When the power is off or in standby/

hibernation mode) (Îpage 40)

NOTE

zIn the following cases, there may be a difference between the remaining battery

capacity displayed on the indicator and the actual remaining battery capacity. To

correct this, perform the "Battery Recalibration." (Îpage 42)

• The battery indicator light remains red.

• The battery remaining displays 99% and the indicator light is orange for a long

period of time.

• Low battery warning appears after a short period of time.

This may be caused by the use of standby mode for long periods of time. The

battery is discharging while the computer is in standby mode when the AC adaptor

is not connected.

zThe remaining battery power and remaining time indicated in the Windows battery

meter ([Power Meter] in [Power Options Properties]) are calculated based on the

computer's usage conditions at that time, so these displays may change when usage

conditions change. (These displays are only a guide.)

The remaining battery power displayed using

Fn

+

is calculated differently, so

displays may differ to some degree. This is not a malfunction.
