Using a Battery

Battery Performance

CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions

located in the Product Information Guide.

NOTE: For information about the Dell warranty for your computer, see the Product Information Guide or

separate paper warranty document that shipped with your computer.

For optimal computer performance and to help preserve BIOS settings, operate your Dell™

portable computer with the main battery installed at all times. Use a battery to run the computer

when it is not connected to an electrical outlet. One battery is supplied as standard equipment in

the battery bay.

Quick Reference Guide 13

Battery operating time varies depending on operating conditions. Operating time is significantly

reduced when you perform operations including, but not limited to, the following:

• Using wireless communications devices or USB devices

• Using high-brightness display settings, 3D screen savers, or other power-intensive programs

such as 3D games

• Running the computer in maximum performance mode

NOTE: It is recommended that you connect your computer to an electrical outlet when writing to a CD

or DVD.

You can check the battery charge before you insert the battery into the computer. You can also set

power management options to alert you when the battery charge is low.

CAUTION: Using an incompatible battery may increase the risk of fire or explosion. Replace the

battery only with a compatible battery purchased from Dell. The lithium-ion battery is designed to work

with your Dell computer. Do not use a battery from other computers with your computer.

CAUTION: Do not dispose of batteries with household waste. When your battery no longer holds a

charge, call your local waste disposal or environmental agency for advice on disposing of a lithium-ion

battery. See "Battery Disposal" in the Product Information Guide.

CAUTION: Misuse of the battery may increase the risk of fire or chemical burn. Do not puncture,

incinerate, disassemble, or expose the battery to temperatures above 65°C (149°F). Keep the battery

away from children. Handle damaged or leaking batteries with extreme care. Damaged batteries may

leak and cause personal injury or equipment damage.

Checking the Battery Charge

The Dell QuickSet Battery Meter, the Microsoft

®

Windows

®

Power Meter

window and icon,

the battery charge gauge and health gauge, and the low-battery warning provide information on the

battery charge.

Dell QuickSet Battery Meter

If Dell QuickSet is installed, press <Fn><F3> to display the QuickSet Battery Meter.

The

Battery Meter

window displays status, charge level, and charge completion time for the battery

in your computer.

14 Quick Reference Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

The following icons appear in the

Battery Meter

window:

For more information about QuickSet, right-click the icon in the taskbar, and click

Help

.

Microsoft

®

Windows

®

Power Meter

The Windows Power Meter indicates the remaining battery charge. To check the Power Meter,

double-click the icon on the taskbar. For more information about the

Power Meter

tab, see

"Power Management" in your

User’s Guide

.

If the computer is connected to an electrical outlet, a icon appears.

Charge Gauge

Before you insert a battery, press the status button on the battery charge gauge to illuminate the

charge-level lights. Each light represents approximately 20 percent of the total battery charge. For

example, if the battery has 80 percent of its charge remaining, four of the lights are on. If no lights

appear, the battery has no charge.

The computer or docking device is running on battery power.

The computer is connected to AC power and the battery is charging.

The computer is connected to AC power and the battery is fully charged.

Quick Reference Guide 15

Health Gauge

The battery operating time is largely determined by the number of times it is charged. After

hundreds of charge and discharge cycles, batteries lose some charge capacity, or battery health. To

check the battery health, press and hold the status button on the battery charge gauge for at least

3 seconds. If no lights appear, the battery is in good condition, and more than 80 percent of its

original charge capacity remains. Each light represents incremental degradation. If five lights

appear, less than 60 percent of the charge capacity remains, and you should consider replacing the

battery. See "Specifications" in your

User’s Guide

for more information about the battery operating

time.

Low-Battery Warning

NOTICE: To avoid losing or corrupting data, save your work immediately after a low-battery warning.

Then connect the computer to an electrical outlet. If the battery runs completely out of power, hibernate

mode begins automatically.

A pop-up window warns you when the battery charge is approximately 90 percent depleted. For

more information about low-battery alarms, see "Power Management" in your

User’s Guide

.

Charging the Battery

NOTE: The AC adapter charges a completely discharged battery in approximately 1 hour with the

computer turned off. Charge time is longer with the computer turned on. You can leave the battery in the

computer as long as you like. The battery’s internal circuitry prevents the battery from overcharging.

When you connect the computer to an electrical outlet or install a battery while the computer is

connected to an electrical outlet, the computer checks the battery charge and temperature. If

necessary, the AC adapter then charges the battery and maintains the battery charge.

If the battery is hot from being used in your computer or being in a hot environment, the battery

may not charge when you connect the computer to an electrical outlet.

The battery is too hot to start charging if the light flashes alternately green and orange.

Disconnect the computer from the electrical outlet and allow the computer and the battery to cool

to room temperature. Then connect the computer to an electrical outlet to continue charging the

battery.

For more information about resolving problems with a battery, see "Power Problems" in your

User’s

Guide

.
