Causes of Kindle Battery Exclamation Mark Error<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Battery at Its Minimum Level<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The first reason your Amazon Kindle<\/strong><\/a> displays the exclamation mark inside its battery icon is that it has exceeded its minimum operating voltage<\/a>. The exclamation marks warn that the device may get permanent battery damage or shut down if you continue using it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your Kindle’s battery may become critically low if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The exclamation mark is usually accompanied by a low battery warning<\/strong> to denote that a low battery is the issue. You may get a notification along the lines of, “Battery critically low, connect your charger to continue using the Kindle, or Low battery.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n A faulty connection between the Kindle battery and the system may also trigger the exclamation mark error. The fault may also result from the battery and charging parameters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s worth noting that a faulty connection between the battery and the Kindle can occur even when the battery has enough charge. Thus, you should not always consider a Kindle battery exclamation mark as a sign of low battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n An exclamation mark that appears even after charging the Kindle indicates an issue with the battery that should be addressed to prevent further damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kindle batteries have a lifetime of four to six years<\/strong>.

It would help if you also tried charging your Kindle with a different charger or power outlet, just in case the problem is with the charging port or cable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n An exclamation mark that doesn’t disappear even after charging your device for a long time may be an indication of a faulty charger. However, you should know your charger\u2019s voltage before thinking it\u2019s defective; using a low-voltage charger will take a little longer for the exclamation mark to disappear. Therefore, you should give the Kindle enough time to charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Kindle should take between two and five hours<\/strong> to be fully charged. A full charge should eliminate the exclamation mark on your Kindle’s battery. However, if it doesn’t, try some of the other solutions below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If recharging your Kindle’s battery even with a different charger didn’t work, you can try forcing a restart on the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hard restarting your Kindle entails forcing it to turn on, a situation that may cause it to move on from the battery screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some instances when you can try hard restarting your Kindle are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n2.
