    This probably affects all current AV-OS-PC 1.94, 1.95, and 1.96
    releases.

    As reported by Polk Co. via Sophia, in the diagnostics memory card test,
    if you wait to be prompted before inserting the memory card to be tested
    you will likely get a false low battery indication (the telephone pole
    symbol in the lower left).

    I have not been able to confirm reports that this is aggravated by
    pressing the YES button during the prompt before inserting the memory
    card.  I have also not confirmed that once this starts happening, you
    have to power cycle the AV to clear it.

    WORKAROUND: Insert the memory card before the INSERT MEMORY CARD TO TEST
    prompt (i.e. at TEST MEMORY CARD? or TEST ANOTHER MEMORY CARD?) if this
    is a problem.
