If you experience difficulty when ejecting the CD disc tray, stretch a paper clip (or use a pin or a thin metal rod) and insert it into the emergency eject hole located on the right side of the front panel. This procedure can also be used to remove a CD from the drive when the Notebook is powered off. Power Saving Modes This section contains information on the Notebook's power system, including the AC Adapter, the battery system, recharging the battery, and tips for conserving battery power. The power system is comprised of two parts, the AC Adapter and the battery system. The AC Adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the computer. The Battery Power System Before using the computer on battery power for the first time, check the battery status icon on the Windows Toolbar to make sure the battery is fully charged. 26 See Battery Status later in this section for a description and explanation of the Windows Battery icon. Charging the battery takes about 3 hours to charge when the system is in off state. If possible, always charge the battery completely. Removing the Battery Pack To remove the battery pack from its compartment, please refer to Chapter 3, Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack. Preparing the Battery Pack for Use Before using the battery pack for the first time, the Smart Battery IC within the battery pack should be calibrated in order to get accurate reporting of remaining battery life status. Insert the battery into the battery compartment and turn on the Notebook. Otherwise, let the battery run down until the battery low-low warning beeps are heard. When the battery charge indicator turns off, the battery is fully charged. Turn On the notebook, let the battery run down until the battery is in low-low state and you hear a warning beeps. In general, using the battery until the low-low battery-warning indicator appears and fully recharges the battery each time (full discharge/charge cycle) will ensure the accurate reporting of the battery gauge status. Automatic Battery Pack Charging Function To charge the battery, while the battery pack is in the notebook, plug the AC adapter into the notebook and an electrical outlet. The charging time is approximately 4-6 hours when the notebook is turned off and approximately 6-10 hours when the notebook is turned on. 27 When the battery is fully charged, the battery charge indicator becomes green. If system runs at heavy loading or in a high temperature environment, the battery may not be fully charged. You need to continue to charge it with the AC adapter plugged in until the charging LED turns green. Battery Status Windows Vista has an applet in the Control Panel that will display an icon in the Windows taskbar indicating when the Notebook is running on battery power or is attached to the AC adapter. This applet also displays a meter that indicates how much charge is remaining in the battery. [. . . ] To adjust this feature, Go to [Start > Settings > Control Panel], and double-click the Keyboard icon. A dialogue 69 box shows up with the adjustable settings for the keyboard. CMOS Battery Problem A message "CMOS Checksum Failure" displays during the booting process or the time (clock) resets when booting · · Try to reboot the system. If the message "CMOS Checksum Failure" appears during the booting procedure even after rebooting, it may indicate failure of the CMOS battery. The battery is located under the System Device Cover on the bottom of the notebook. [. . . ]
