Battery Power Battery Indicator 22 Battery indicator Not lit Orange Green Blinking green Red Blinking red Blinking orange Battery status The battery pack is not inserted or not being charged. Charging is in progress. The battery is fully-charged. In high temperature mode, the battery pack is discharging the power to 80%*1 of normal temperature mode ( page 24). Do not remove the battery pack in this status. The remaining battery is approximately 9% or less. The battery pack or the charging circuit is not operating properly. The battery cannot be charged temporarily due to the following reasons:
Its internal temperature is out of the acceptable range. The power supply is not enough because software applications or peripheral devices are consuming a large amount of power. Blinking green and orange alternately The temperature is low and the computer is warming up to prevent the hard disk drive from malfunctioning. The computer will start automatically after warming-up.
*1 In high temperature mode, the 100% battery level is equivalent to 80% level of the normal temperature mode. NOTE
Once the battery is fully charged, the computer performs recharging only when the battery level becomes less than approximately 95%, so overcharging is avoided. Battery Power 23 Checking the Remaining Battery Charge You can check the remaining battery charge on the screen.
(After logging on to Windows) 1 Press Fn+F9.
When the battery pack is inserted (example)
: Normal temperature mode ( page 24)
: High temperature mode ( page 24)
When the battery pack is not inserted NOTE
The battery display may not correspond to the actual remaining battery charge in the cases as below. To correct the display, perform the Battery Recalibration ( page 26). The battery indicator remains red. The indicator lights orange and the display shows 99% for a long time. Low battery warning appears soon after a short time of use. This can occur when the computer is in standby mode for a long time without power supply from the AC adaptor.
The battery display may not be the same as that of notification area or of [Power Meter] in [Power Options Properties]. This is not a malfunction. Battery Power High temperature mode 24 The high temperature mode can prevent the battery from deteriorating when the computer is used in high-temperature envi-
ronment or used for a long time with its battery fully charged. Select [Auto] (default) or [High Temperature] in [Environment] of the [Main] menu of the Setup Utility ( page 67). NOTE
Note that a level corresponding to a 100% charge for high temperature mode is approximately equivalent to an 80%
charge level for normal temperature mode.
After switching from [Normal Temperature] to [High Temperature] or vice versa, the remaining battery capacity will not be displayed correctly until the battery pack is completely discharged or fully charged.
In the [Auto] mode:
Once the computer has automatically switched from the normal temperature mode to the high temperature mode, the computer will not switch back to the normal temperature mode until the battery has been used and recharged to a total charge level of about five times as much as that of the fully-charged state. This is to avoid battery deterioration. Battery Power Computer behavior with low battery The default settings are as follows. When the battery level becomes 10%
[Low battery alarm]
Displays a message that the battery level is low. Charge the battery.
Connect the AC adaptor immediately. If you do not have the AC adaptor, exit the running programs and Windows, then confirm that the power indicator is off.
If you have a fully charged spare battery, turn off the computer, replace the battery and turn the computer on again. 25 When the battery level becomes 5%
[Critical battery alarm]
Displays a message that the battery level is low, and then the computer enters hibernation. Connect the AC adaptor or replace the battery to start up the computer.
Connect the AC adaptor and charge the battery.
If you have a fully charged spare battery, replace the battery and turn the computer on again. When the computer enters hibernation with the battery down and you resume the operation without charging the battery, Windows may not start up normally or the alarm function may not operate normally from then on. Do not replace the battery pack when the computer is in standby mode. Battery Power 26 Correcting the Battery Display (Battery Recalibration) The Battery Recalibration function measures and memorizes the battery capacity. To correct the battery display, use this function to fill the battery and then discharge it completely. Perform the procedure at least once immediately after purchasing the computer. Normally the interval of battery recalibration is three months. The battery display may not be correct when the battery pack deteriorates after a long time use. In this case, perform the procedure again. 1 2 3 Connect the AC adaptor. Close all the applications. Perform Battery Recalibration. A Click [start] - [All Programs] - [Panasonic] - [Battery] - [Battery Recalibration]. B When the confirmation message appears, click [Start].
Frequent recalibration of the battery can degrade the battery. A caution message appears when the battery recalibration is performed at the shorter interval than approximately a month. In this case, cancel the battery recalibration. C When the message requests shut down of Windows, click [Yes]. The battery recalibration starts. After the battery pack is fully charged, discharging starts. When the discharging is completed, the power goes off automatically. After the battery recalibration is finished, normal charging starts. NOTE
The temperature range should be 10C to 30C {50F to 86F}.
The battery recalibration may take a long time due to the large battery capacity. This is not a malfunction. Full charge: Approximately 4.5 hours [max.]
Complete discharge: Approximately 4.5 hours
If the computer is turned off during the battery recalibration (e.g., due to power failure, or accidental removal of the AC adaptor and battery pack), the battery recalibration will not be completed.
You can also perform the battery recalibration with the following procedure. A Restart the computer. B Press F9 while the [Panasonic] boot screen is displayed just after the computer starts the startup procedure. C When the remaining battery capacity is displayed, press Enter. D Follow the on-screen instructions. Battery Power 27 Replacing the Battery Pack The battery pack is a consumable item so the replacement will be necessary. If the battery operation time becomes noticeably short and not recovered even after recalibrating the battery, replace with a new battery. CAUTION
The battery pack is not charged when you first purchase it. Be sure to charge it before using for the first time. Charging starts automatically when the AC adaptor is connected to the computer.
Use only the specified battery pack with your computer.
