Status Indicators
There are eight status indicators on the upper left of the keyboard which light to show the state of the battery,
keyboard and drives.
Power
The Power indicator lights green when the power is on, and lights orange when the computer is in the standby
mode.
Low Battery
With the battery in the normally charged state, the Low Batt indicator remains off. When the battery is more
than roughly 90 percent discharged, the indicator turns red. An alarm then beeps for about 15 seconds. If this
occurs, plug in the AC Adaptor immediately. If you continue using the computer without plugging in the AC
Adaptor, the indicator begins to blink and the alarm beeps again. After approximately 30 seconds of blinking
and beeping, the computer is automatically turned off and the contents of memory are lost.
Charge
With the computer turned off, the Charge indicator blinks while the internal battery is being charged, and
illuminates when the battery is at least 90 percent charged.
Floppy Disk
The Floppy Disk indicator comes on when the optional 3.5 inch Floppy Drive Unit is being accessed.
