Page 10 Introducing Your WorkPad c3 Companion
Recharging the battery
The WorkPad c3 companion contains a Lithium-ion battery that is
recharged each time you place the companion in the cradle. You never
need to replace the battery. Just place your WorkPad c3 companion in
the cradle for three hours for an initial charge before you use your
companion. Then place it in the cradle for a few minutes each day to
recharge the battery to full capacity.
If the battery gets low, your WorkPad c3 companion displays a
warning message. If this occurs, perform a HotSync operation and
then recharge the battery as soon as possible. If your WorkPad c3
companion shuts down, you still have about a week to recharge the
battery before you lose the data on your companion.
An additional connection is made from the
back of the cradle’s serial (COM) port
connector to the AC adapter which plugs into
any AC current outlet.
