Dead Battery Suspend mode shows on the Status indi-
cator just like the normal Suspend mode. Once your
LifeBook notebook goes into Dead Battery Suspend
mode you will be unable to resume operation until you
provide a source of power either from an adapter, or a
charged battery. Once you have provided power, you will
need to press the Suspend/Resume button to resume
operation. In the Dead Battery Suspend mode, your data
can be maintained for some time, but if a power source
is not provided promptly, the Power indicator will stop
flashing and go out, meaning that you have lost the data
that was not stored. Once you provide power, you can
continue to use your LifeBook notebook while an
adapter is charging the battery.
Shorted Batteries
The Status Indicator panel uses a symbol inside the
battery outline of the Battery Level indicator to display
the operating level available in that battery. (See figure 2-
9 on page 14) If this display shows a Shorted Battery, it
means that the battery is damaged and must be replaced
so it does not damage any other parts of your LifeBook
notebook.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
With the purchase of an additional battery, you can have
a fully charged spare to swap with one that is not
charged. (Figure 4-1)
1. Have a charged battery ready to install.
2. Shut down your LifeBook notebook and disconnect
the AC adapter.
3. Press the battery release latch while lifting the
battery.
4. Remove the battery from the bay.
5. Slide the new battery into the bay. The pins will
automatically align with the connector.
6. Press the battery down until the battery release latch
snaps into place.
7. Plug in the AC adapter and turn the power on.
