Battery Maintenance :
● Donotleavebatteriesunusedforextendedperiodsoftime,eitherintheSlatPCorinstorage.Whena
batteryhasbeenunusedfor3months,checkthechargestatusandchargeordisposeofthebatteryas
appropriate.
● ThetypicalestimatedlifeofaLithium-Ionbatteryisabouttwotothreeyearsor300to500chargecycles,
whicheveroccursrst.Onechargecycleisaperiodofusefromfullycharged,tofullydischarged,andfully
rechargedagain.Useatwotothreeyearlifeexpectancyforbatteriesthatdonotrunthroughcomplete
charge cycles.
● RechargeableLithium-Ionbatterieshavealimitedlifeandwillgraduallylosetheircapacitytoholda
charge.Thislossofcapacityisirreversible.Asthebatterylosescapacity,thelengthoftimeitwillpower
theSlatPCdecreases.
● Theruntimeofyourbatterywillvarydependingontheproduct’scongurationandtheapplicationsthat
yourun.Routinelycheckthebattery’schargestatus.
● Batteryterminalsmustavoidcontactwithanymetallicsubstance.Forpreventingshortage,avoidsilver
coins,tinselsandanyothermetallicsubstancestocontactthe+and-terminalsofthebattery.For
example,Itmighthappenbyinsertingthebatteriestoacoatpocketoraleatherhandbagwithsome
metallicsubstancesmountedonit(metalbuttonsorzippers).Thereishighpossibilityofcausingshort
circuits and connection damage of the battery.
● Considerreplacingthebatterywithanewoneifyounoteeitherofthefollowingconditions:
(1)Thebatteryruntimedropsbelowabout80%oftheoriginalruntime.
(2)Thebatterychargetimeincreasessignicantly.
(3)Ifabatteryisstoredorotherwiseunusedforanextendedperiod,besuretofollowthestorageinstructions

Charging :
TheLithium-IonbatteryisrechargedinternallyusingtheACadapter.Torechargethebattery,makesurethe

putyourcomputerintoSuspendmodeorturnitoffwhiletheadapterischargingthebattery.Pleasealways
followthecharginginstructionsprovidedwithyourSlatPC.
* 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 resumes its normal Fast Charge. Pre-Charge may
take 30 minutes. Fast Charge usually takes 2~3 hours.
Low Battery State :
Whenthebatterylevelislow,anotificationmessageappears.Ifyoudonotrespondtothelowbattery
message,thebatterycontinuestodischargeuntilitistoolowtooperate.Whenthishappens,yourSlatPC
goesintoSuspendmode.ThereisnoguaranteeyourdatawillbesavedoncetheSlatPCreachesthispoint.
CAUTION:ToprotectyourSlatPCfromdamage,useonlythepoweradapterthatcamewithit
because each power adapter has its own power output rating.
OnceyourSlatPCgoesintosuspendmodeasaresultofadeadbattery,youwillbeunabletoresume
