CHARGING THE
BATTERY
When you connect the Tablet PC to AC power with the battery installed, the
system automatically charges the battery until it reaches full charge.
The Battery Status LED is amber while the battery is charging and changes
to green when fully charged. If the battery temperature is above the
recommended range, the LED turns red. See Table 2-4 for other battery
status descriptions.
WARNING: To avoid injury, keep the battery within the recommended
temperature range when charging it. Wait until it cools to room
temperature before recharging it in the Tablet PC or the battery
charger. For more information, see the Safety and Regulatory Guide
shipped with your Tablet PC or the documentation that came with the
battery charger. Or go to www.motioncomputing.com/support to view
these documents.
To charge the battery:
1. Plug the AC power adapter into the Tablet PC, then into a wall outlet
or power strip. (Completely recharging the battery may take up to
two hours, although the battery reaches an 80% charge in much
less time.)
2. Turn the Tablet PC over to see the battery gauge on the
bottom of the Tablet PC and press the button next to the
battery gauge. If all five LEDs are green, the battery is
fully charged. Or, move the pen over the Power/Battery
icon to display battery power resources. (The blue area on the battery
icon shrinks as the battery runs down. This icon is completely blue
when the battery is fully-charged.)
