Possible Solutions
Use the Status Indicator panel to verify the presence
and condition of the batteries. (See Status Indicator
Panel on page 13 for more information) If a battery is
indicating a short, remove that battery and operate
from another power source or replace that battery.
Check the Status Indicator Panel to determine the
presence and condition of the batteries. (See Status
Indicator Panel on page 13 for more information) Use
a Power adapter to operate until a battery is charged
or install a charged battery.
Verify that your adapter is connected correctly. (See
Power Sources on page 27 for more information)
Move the AC cord to a different outlet, check for a
line switch or tripped circuit breaker for the AC
outlet. If you are using an auto/airline adapter in a
car make sure the ignition switch is in the On or
Accessories position.
Try a different Power adapter or install a charged
optional second battery.
Press any button on the keyboard, or move the
mouse to restore operation. If that fails, push the
Power/Suspend/Resume button. Check your power
management settings, or close your applications and
go to the Power Savings menu of the setup utility to
adjust the timeout values to better suit your needs.
Install a power adapter and then push the Power/
Suspend/Resume button. (See Power Sources on
page 27 for more information)

Status Indicator panel, and replace or remove
any batteries that are shorted. (See Status Indicator

has power.
Replace the battery with a charged one or install
