Connecting the AC adapter
Your tablet ships with a charged 6-cell lithium-ion (or an optional lightweight
3-cell) battery in its bay. You can run your tablet PC using an AC adapter or
the tablet PC battery. You may own other devices that advise you to charge the
battery before first use, but the Gateway Tablet PC battery does not require it.
If a charge is needed, just plug in the AC adapter and let the battery charge
while you are working.
Important
■
A full charge will take up to two hours. Press the button
next to the battery gauge. When all five LEDs glow green,
the battery is fully charged. See “Back” on page 9 for the
location of the battery gauge.
■
Whenever the tablet is connected to AC power and the
battery is in place, the tablet will automatically charge the
battery until it reaches 100 percent. The Battery Status
indicator glows steady yellow while the battery is
charging and changes to steady green when charging is
complete. See “Status indicators” on page 5 for more
information.
