Using The Main Battery Lights; Using Powerprofiler To Monitor The Battery - Samsung M6000 Series User Manual

Using the Main Battery Lights

There are four battery status lights on the main battery that indicate if
the main battery is charging and the amount of battery charge
remaining.
To see how much charge remains in the main battery, remove the
battery (See "Removing and Installing the Battery" on page 37 for
more information.) and press the battery status button. Each light
indicates a 25 percent charge. For example, if three lights are on, the
battery has a 75 percent charge. The battery status lights automatically
turn off two seconds after you release the battery status button.
