Li-ion battery charge remaining.
tery available charge gauge illuminate be-
cause the remaining energy is a lower
percentage of the Li-ion battery’s capabil-
ity of storing power.
NOTE:
• The number of segments illuminated on
the Li-ion battery available charge gauge
is determined by the available charge and
the amount of charge the Li-ion battery is
capable of storing at the current tempera-
ture.
• Temperature affects the amount of charge
the Li-ion battery is capable of storing.
The Li-ion battery is capable of storing
less power when the Li-ion battery tem-
perature is cold. The Li-ion battery is ca-
pable of storing more power when the
Li-ion battery is warm. The number of seg-
ments illuminated on the Li-ion battery
available charge gauge can change based
on the amount of power the Li-ion battery
is capable of storing. For example, when
the Li-ion battery becomes colder, more
segments on the Li-ion battery available
charge gauge illuminate because the
available charge is a greater percentage
of the Li-ion battery’s capability of storing
power. When the Li-ion battery becomes
warmer, less segments on the Li-ion bat-
