What to do when the battery runs low
When the battery runs low you can
Plug the computer into an external power source and recharge
the battery.
Put the computer in Hibernation mode and replace the battery
with a charged spare.
Save your work and turn off the computer.
If you don't manage to do any of these things before the battery
completely runs out of power, the computer automatically enters

you can continue where you left off.
The computer stores the information on what you were doing until
the battery runs out of power. If you have Hibernation mode
enabled (the default), the computer copies the details of your open
programs and files to the hard disk before shutting down.
