Page 7 Back to Contents Page Diagnostics Dell Latitude E4310 Service Manual Device Status Lights Battery Status Lights Battery Charge and Health Device Status Lights Battery Status Lights If the computer is connected to an electrical outlet, the battery light operates as follows: l Alternately blinking amber light and blue light — An unauthenticated or unsupported, non-Dell AC adapter is attached to your laptop. l Alternately blinking amber light with steady blue light — Temporary battery failure with AC adapter present. l Constantly blinking amber light — Fatal battery failure with AC adapter present. l Light off — Battery in full charge mode with AC adapter present. l Blue light on — Battery in charge mode with AC adapter present. Battery Charge and Health To check the battery charge, press and release 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 four lights are on, the battery has 80 percent of its charge remaining. If no lights appear, the battery has no charge. To check battery health using the charge gauge, 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.

Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the product. CAUTION: To avoid electrostatic discharge, ground yourself by using a wrist grounding strap or by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface, such as a connector on the back of the computer. CAUTION: Handle components and cards with care. Do not touch the components or contacts on a card. Hold a card by its edges or by its metal mounting bracket. Hold a component such as a processor by its edges, not by its pins. CAUTION: When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its pull-tab, not on the cable itself. Some cables have connectors with locking tabs; if you are disconnecting this type of cable, press in on the locking tabs before you disconnect the cable. As you pull connectors apart, keep them evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable, ensure that both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned. NOTE: The color of your computer and certain components may appear differently than shown in this document. CAUTION: To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from your computer and then unplug the cable from the network device. CAUTION: To avoid damaging the system board, you must remove the main battery before you service the computer. CAUTION: To guard against electrical shock, always unplug your computer from the electrical outlet before opening the display. CAUTION: Before touching anything inside your computer, ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface, such as the metal at the back of the computer. While you work, periodically touch an unpainted metal surface to dissipate static electricity, which could harm internal components. CAUTION: To avoid losing data, save and close all open files and exit all open programs before you turn off your computer.
