The battery charge gauge, located on the battery and accessible on the underside of

the computer, consists of four indicators and a test button. Each indicator represents

25 percent of full charge. If only one indicator lights up, recharge the battery before

ate number of indicators lights up for a few seconds to indicate the amount of charge

remaining in the battery.
