Chapter 3: Getting Started
To connect the AC adapter:
1
Important If the battery is not fully charged before you use your
convertible tablet PC on battery power for the first time,
the battery life may be much shorter than you expect. If
the battery life seems short even after being charged for
three hours, the battery may need to be recalibrated. For
information on recalibrating the battery, see “Recalibrating
the battery” on page 72.
Caution Make sure that you use the AC adapter that came with
your convertible tablet PC or one of the same type
purchased from Gateway.
Replace the power cord if it becomes damaged. The
replacement cord must be of the same type and voltage
rating as the original cord or your convertible tablet PC may
be damaged.
