Monitoring Battery Power 
There are two ways to 
monitor how much power the 
battery has left. 
1. Click 
Start / Settings / 
Control Panel / Power 
Options 
; then click 
Power Meter
2.  Moving the cursor to the 
battery icon on the 
taskbar is the simplest 
way to check on battery 
power status.  
 
If you do not see the battery icon, enable it in Start / Settings / 
Control Panel / Power Options 
. Choose the Advanced tab and click 
“Always show icon on the taskbar.” 
Low Battery Alarms 
How your computer responds to a low battery condition is set under 
Start / Settings / Control Panel / Power Options / Alarms.  
Two different power alarms can be enabled or disabled: the Low 
Battery Alarm, and the Critical Battery Alarm. Use the slide bar to set 
the power level at which the alarms are activated. Click on the Alarm 
Action button to choose whether the alarm sounds, displays a 
message, or both.  
 Warning: 
When battery power is low, the battery 
indicator will flash red, and the alarm will beep 
or display a warning on your screen. Take 
immediate action, such as saving files or 
connecting to the AC adapter, or data may be lost. 
When the computer alerts you that the battery is low, immediately do 
one of the following: 
•  Connect the AC power adapter 
•  Save your work, and suspend to disk <Fn> + <F3> 
•  Save your work, then select Shut Down from the Start menu
