Chapter 2: Getting Started
Power Management
Important: Take care when replacing batteries!
The netpad will warn you when its main battery is getting low, in
plenty of time to change/charge it. The backup battery is designed
to maintain the memory for several hours. However, prolonged reli-
ance on the backup battery does reduce its life.
2.2.3.2 Charging The netpad Battery Pack
To charge the battery, attach the battery pack to the netpad and place the complete
netpad in a netpad docking station (for instructions, please refer to page 31), or place
the battery in one of the optional battery chargers. The standard (850 mAH) netpad
battery will normally be fully charged within 2 to 2.5 hours (3 hours for a 1400
mAH battery pack).
2.2.3.3 How Do I Check The Battery Power?
To check the battery power, open the Battery icon from the Control Panel. The
Battery tab gives a brief description of the state of the main battery.
2.2.3.4 Changing Battery Packs
If you are using your netpad away from the charger and a spare battery pack is avail-
able, you can change batteries when the battery warning is displayed. To do this:
1. Switch the netpad off.
2. Press on the battery pack latch to remove it.
3. Push in the replacement battery pack.
Important: Always switch off the netpad before removing the main battery.
Never remove the battery from the netpad while it is in the
docking station. Never use a netpad without a battery in the
docking station.
