TP 700C - LCD dims when switched to battery power

Applicable to: World-Wide

Service Information:
Do not replace parts if your customer indicates the brightness dims when switching from A.C. power to internal D.C. power. This is a normal function of the system. In the customer's Thinkpad 700C PS/2 "Battery Operation Guide" booklet it states on page 6, below step 2 (brightness), "Note when you disconnect the A.C. adapter from the computer, the LCD becomes slightly dimmer to conserve battery power.
The booklet is located in the system's publication ship group form number S42G-2012 (Dealer # P/N42G2012) for the 700 and S42G-2019 (Dealer # P/N42G2019) for the 700C.
