Working with the notebook

Monitoring the battery charging level

The remaining battery charge is indicated by the battery symbol in the status indicator panel (see
the section "Display field"). When you switch on the notebook, it takes a few seconds before the
battery status is displayed.
During mobile operation you can also use a "battery charge meter" for energy-saving monitoring
under Windows.
A battery icon is shown in the taskbar. When you position the cursor on the battery icon, the battery
charge level is displayed with a blue status bar. This blue bar progressively decreases as the battery
discharges.
