Power Displaying Charge Information on the Screen This section explains how to access and interpret battery charge displays. Viewing Charge Displays To view information about the status of any battery pack in the tablet PC: ■ Double-click the Power Meter icon on the notification area. - or - ■ Select Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Power Options > Power Meter tab. Interpreting Charge Displays Most charge displays report battery status as both a percentage and as the number of minutes of charge remaining. ■ The percentage indicates the amount of charge remaining in the battery pack. ■ The time indicates the approximate running time remaining on the battery pack if the battery pack continues to provide power at the current level. For example, the time remaining will decrease when you start playing a DVD and will increase when you stop playing a DVD. Most charge displays identify battery packs by location: ■ Location 1 is the battery pack in the primary battery bay. ■ Location 2 is the optional travel battery pack. On some displays, a lightning bolt icon may be displayed on the charge display beside a battery pack location. The icon indicates that the battery pack in that location is charging.
