main battery's current charge.

(AC adaptor connected)
❖
Glows white when the main battery is fully charged

charging, or the AC adaptor is not plugged into the computer or
AC outlet
NOTE
❖
Flashes amber when the main battery charge is low and it is
time to recharge the main battery or plug in the AC adaptor
NOTE
Battery life and charge time may vary, depending upon power
management settings, applications and features used.
If the AC power light flashes amber during charging, either a battery
pack is malfunctioning, or it is not receiving correct input from the
AC power supply.
Disconnect the AC power cord/cable and remove the battery pack.
