Power and the battery
NOTE
Your device receives its power through the AC adaptor and
power cord/cable or from the system battery. Power
problems are interrelated. For example, a faulty AC adaptor
or power cord/cable will neither power the device nor
recharge the battery.
Here are some typical problems and how to solve them:
The AC power light does not come on when you
plug in the AC adaptor and power cord/cable.
Make sure the AC adaptor and power cord/cable are firmly
plugged into both the wall outlet and the device.
If the AC power light still does not come on, check that the
wall outlet is working properly by plugging in a lamp or other
appliance.
The AC adaptor and power cord/cable work
correctly, but the battery will not charge.
The battery does not charge while the device is consuming
full power. Try turning off the device.
The battery may be too hot or too cold to charge properly. If
you think this is the probable cause, let the battery reach
room temperature and try again.
If the battery has completely discharged, it will not begin
charging immediately. Leave the AC adaptor and power
cord/cable connected, wait 20 minutes and see if the battery
is charging.
The device's battery may not be accessible by the user.
