1.13 Using the Battery Pack
M1022 Booktop computer is designed to operate with one of the following power sources:
*AC power (using the AC adapter connected to an electrical outlet)
*Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack
You should use the AC adapter whenever possible; use the battery pack only when AC power
is unavailable. The rechargeable Li-Ion battery pack allows you to operate your M1022
Booktop computer without an external power source. When you use the AC adapter to connect
your M1022 Booktop to a power outlet, the internal battery will begin to recharge. While the
battery is charging, the Battery Charge icon on the indicator panel will be on. Once the battery
is fully charged, the Battery Charge icon will turn off. Quick charging time is 2.5 hours for the
Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery when the computer is turned off, while the normal battery charging
time is 3.5 hours.
*Operating video, or audio equipment can increase the use of your computer’s power.
*Decreasing monitor brightness can also save power.
*When the battery is not fully charged, allow your battery to be charged completely before
using it (i.e., before disconnecting AC power). Calibrating the battery before use is also highly
recommended.
*Li-Ion Battery is vulnerable; do not charge it with other power adapter, otherwise fire or
explosion may occur.
Replacing the Battery
The battery will gradually weaken over time. We recommend that you replace your battery
when you notice a significant decrease of battery capacity.
To change the battery pack, follow the steps below:
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Close the lid and flip the computer over.
3. Slide the battery latch. Continue to hold it until the battery is removed.
4. Make sure the replacement battery is properly oriented before inserting it into the battery
compartment.
Note: The battery can not be charged to 100% when remaining battery is no less than 95%. It
is based on the supplier’s advice, and to extend charging frequency and battery life.
Maintenance of the AC Adapter
*Do not connect the adapter to any other device.
*Do not step on the power cord or place heavy objects on top of it. Carefully route the power
cord and keep cables away from all traffic.
*When unplugging the power cord, do not pull on the cord itself but on the plug instead.
*If you are using an extension cord, make sure that the devices plugged onto the cord do not
exceed its total capacity. Furthermore, the devices plugged into the electrical outlet shall not
exceed the fuse’s total ampere rating.
*Please verify power voltage before connecting the electrical cord to the power outlet. If you
are uncertain of its power specification, please consult with your local vendors or power
company for more details.
1.14 Connecting the AC Adapter
The AC adapter converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage supplied to the
computer. It can automatically adjust to any voltage from 100 to 240 volts and outputs power at
12V, (12V, 3.0A for M1022), allowing you to use your M1022 Booktop computer in almost any
region.
CAUTION: Use only the AC adapter and the power cord we recommend. Using the wrong
adapter may damage your computer. We assume no responsibilities for damages arising from
misuse of AC adapters.

Operating Temperature: 10ºC to 40ºC
Chapter 2 Battery
2.1 Battery Pack
Your M1022 Booktop is equipped with a high-energy rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
battery pack. Battery life will vary depending on the product configuration, product model,
applications loaded on the product, power management settings of the product, and the
product features used by the customer. As with all batteries, the maximum capacity of this
battery will decrease with time and usage.
2.2 Recharging The Battery Pack
Your M1022 Booktop supports both on-line and off-line recharge. Follow the procedure below
to recharge battery:
*Make sure the battery pack is installed in the M1022 Booktop.
*Connect the AC adapter to the M1022 Booktop and to an electrical outlet.
When a battery pack is being recharged, its battery LED (located at the upper left corner of
LCD display) would be lit. For details on the LEDs, please refer to Chapter 1.3. When the
M1022 Booktop is OFF, a depleted Li-Ion battery will take three hours to recharge.
2.3 Questions And Answers
Q: I can feel a mild heat next to the battery pack. Is it normal?
A: The battery will generate heat during recharging and discharging. There is a protection
circuit inside the M1022 Booktop to prevent overheating. User needs not to worry.
Q: My battery operation time is not as long as it should be. Why?
A: The battery is heat sensitive and can only be charged to its maximum if the battery and its
environmental temperature remain within 15-25°C (59-77°F). The more the temperature
deviates from this range during recharging, the less chance there is for the battery to be fully
charged. In order to recharge the pack to its full capacity, users are requested to cool down
the unit by unplugging the AC Adapter. Wait until it is cooled down. Then plug in the AC
Adapter to start recharging again.
Q: I did not use my spare battery for a few days. Even though it was fully recharged, there
wasn’t as much power left as a newly charged one. Why?
A: The batteries will self-discharge when they are not being recharged. To make sure a battery
pack is fully charged, recharge before use. Always keep the battery inside the M1022
Booktop and have the AC adapter connected whenever possible.
Q: I did not use my spare battery for months. I have problem in recharging it.
A: If you happen to leave your battery pack to go through an extended period of self-discharge,
say more than three months, the battery voltage level will become too low and needs to be
Pre-Charged (to bring the battery voltage level high enough) before it automatically (for
Li-Ion only) resumes its normal Fast Charge. Pre-Charge may take 30 minutes. Fast
Charge usually takes 2~3 hours.
2.4 Battery Maintenance
To maintain the battery pack's maximum capacity, you should occasionally let the M1022
Booktop deplete its battery power completely before recharging.
To carry out a complete depletion of the battery, disconnect the AC adapter and let your
M1022 Booktop consume the remaining battery power. To speed up the depletion, use the
HDD as much as possible. When the battery is empty, wait for the M1022 Booktop to cool
down (especially the battery). The temperature should be within 15-25°C (59-77°F). Then
insert the AC adapter to recharge the battery.
2.5 Power Consumption
The Windows™ operating system has incorporated the latest state-of-the-art ACPI
(Advanced Configuration Power Interface) power management methodology. In order to
fully utilize the power of your battery packs, it would be a good idea for you to spend sometime
to acquire a basic understanding of the power management concept from your operating
system.
In Windows™ Operating Systems, you can go through Power Options of the Control
Panel according to the version of Windows™ Operating System the M1022 Booktop
applies. We shall not describe them in details.

Although your M1022 Booktop (together with the operating system) is capable of power
conservation, there are measures you can take to reduce the power consumption:
*Use the AC power whenever possible.
*Try to use the HDD drive to read and write files, instead of using the external USB FDD.
*Disable unused devices, such as Web Cam, WLAN, Bluetooth®, and etc.
*Decrease LCD panel brightness through Windows.
Note: Whenever system is powered on or powered off, make sure the battery pack is installed
in the battery pack compartment.
2.7 Removing The Battery Pack
This battery pack can easily be removed and replaced. Make sure that the computer is
properly shutdown before changing the battery pack. If you would like to change the battery
pack while power is on, make sure this battery pack is not the only electrical source to the

6.2 Q&A
Q: My computer switches to hibernation mode much too quickly, and I have to
constantly hit a key or move the mouse to bring back the screen. What can I do?
A: This is part of Windows Power Management. Access Power Management by clicking on
Start / Control Panel / Performance and Maintenance / Power Options, and change the time
next to the “Turn off monitor” option to the time you want. You have the choice of either
adjusting time for the power supply or for the battery.
Q: I’ve heard that cleaning and rearranging files on the hard drive will improve
program’s launch speed, how do I do that?
A: Good disk maintenances can improve program launch speed. This normally includes
deleting unnecessary files, and defragmenting hard disk so that files can be more efficiently
grouped. Windows contains maintenance utilities for these tasks; run Disk Cleanup to remove
unnecessary files, and Disk Defragmenter to defragment file blocks. For more information
about these utilities, please refer to your Windows documentation.
Q: What kind of external microphone can I use with my Booktop computer?
A: You will need to use a self-amplifying microphone.
Q: There are echoes coming from my speakers. What can I do?
A: Double click on the Speaker icon on the task bar. Then, under Microphone Balance, check
the Mute box.
Q: Because of a software problem, I was unable to shut the computer down from
Windows, I pressed the power button to power off the computer, but it didn’t work. How
can I force a power off?
A: Make sure you press the power button for at least 4 seconds. Normally, this will force the
computer to shut off.
Q: Why can’t I charge the battery of my portable computer after it was out of use for
some time?
A: After your portable computer has not been used for a long time (say, more than a month),
the battery will enter into low voltage protection mode. Under this circumstance, restoring to
normal voltage will require the battery to be slowly charged for several hours. Once the battery
has been fully charged, your computer will resume to normal operation.
Q: My computer says: “CMOS Battery Low”, what should I do?
A: If your computer is without power (i.e. unplug the computer power source from the power
outlet and remove the battery pack from it) for over 45 days, you would lose the information
stored in CMOS.
Please follow the steps below to reconfigure your CMOS settings:
1. Press F2 to enter into the BIOS setup utility.
2. Select “Load Optional Defaults?”. When you see the following prompt, choose <OK> and
then press <Enter>.
3. Select “Save Changes and Exit”, select <OK> and press <Enter> to restart your computer.
Q: How to unplug or eject devices
A:
1. In the notification area next to your task bar, double-click the Safe Removal icon. Safe
Removal displays a list of Plug and Play devices that support safe removal and that are
currently attached to the system.
If you do not see the Safe Removal icon, your device does not support safe removal, and you
cannot unplug or eject your device using Safe Removal.
![](/img.php?id=1085640&img=bg28.png)
2. In Safely Remove Hardware, in the list of devices, select the device that you want to
unplug or eject, and then click Stop. This tells the system that you will be unplugging or
ejecting the device.
3. In Stop a Hardware device, click OK.
A notification appears stating that it is now safe to unplug or eject the device.
Caution
Unplugging or ejecting a device that supports safe removal without first using the Safe
Removal application to warn the system can cause data to be lost or your system to become
unstable. For example, if you use Safe Removal, however, you can warn the system before
you unplug or eject a device, preventing possible loss of data.
Note
For removable storage devices that can safely be removed while the system is on, the system
disables write caching by default. It does this so the devices can be removed without loss of
data. When write caching is disabled, however, the system will likely experience slower
performance, so be sure to enable write caching when you have finished removing the device.
Q: Does M1022 provide a hardware switch or function button to enable/disable the Bluetooth
function?
A: M1022 provides a combined function button to enable/disable the 3G (Fn+F10) and
Bluetooth (Fn+F11) functions.
Q: What are the considerations for the use of the touch control screen?
A: In accordance with the principle of panel structure, the surroundings of the touch control
panel are highly sensitive. Hence, drawing lines along the surroundings of the chassis is
strictly prohibited as this may damage the Pet/film due to extreme pressure or cause the
internal liners/pads on the edges of the outer shell to displace, therefore squeezing the edges
of the touch control screen and causing the screen to fail.
Q: What is the capacity of SDHC card that M1022 can support?
A: The specification of SDHC that M1022 SD card reader supports shall be in accordance with
that of the SD Association. Currently, the maximum capacity announced by SD Association is
32GB
http://www.sdcard.org/developers/tech/sdhc/
Q: How can M1022 be upgraded in the DOS and Windows mode?
A: Please refer to how to upgrade M1022 in the DOS and Windows mode?
Q. Can M1022 change the 2.5-inch SATA interface SSD and install it for use with Windows
XP itself?
A. Currently the M1022 series delivered by Gigabyte does not support SATA
SSD. In case of any version update in the future, the specification will be
announced on the website of Gigabyte.
Q . What is the function of the Installed O/S option in the BIOS menu?
![](/img.php?id=1085640&img=bg29.png)
A. In the M1022 BIOS configuration screen, select the operating system you install from
