Battery Maintenance Guidance
Before you use your Slat PC on the road, you will have to charge the battery pack. The battery pack begins to
charge as soon as the Slat PC is connected to external power using the power adapter. Fully charge the battery
pack before using it for the first time. A new battery pack must completely charge before the Slat PC is
disconnected from external power. It takes a few hours to fully charge the battery when the Slat PC is turned
OFF. Please note the battery stops charging if the temperature is too high or the battery voltage is too high.
NOTE: Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge over time. If not
using a battery pack, it must continued to be charged every three month to extend recovery capacity or
else it may fail to charge in the future. Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries require routine maintenance
and care in their use and handling. Read through below instruction and your Slat PC will achieve the
maximum battery life span.
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 first. 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 configuration 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 significantly.
(3) If a battery is stored or otherwise unused for an extended period, be sure to follow the storage instructions
in P10. If you do not follow the instructions, and the battery has no charge remaining when you check it,
consider it to be damaged. Do not attempt to recharge it or to use it. Replace it with a new battery.
Charging :
The Lithium-Ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter. To recharge the battery, make sure the
battery is installed and the Slat PC is connected to the AC adapter. The charge times will be significantly
longer if your Slat PC is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly,
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
operation until you provide a source of power either from an adapter or a charged battery. Once you have
provided power, you can press the Suspend/ Resume button to resume operation. In Suspend mode, your
data is maintained for some time, but if a power source is not provided promptly, the power indicator stops
flashing and then goes out, in which case you have lost the data that was not saved. Once you provide
power, you can continue to use your computer while an adapter charges the battery.
Storage :
●
●
●
●
Charge or discharge the battery to approximately 50% of capacity before storage.
Charge the battery to approximately 50% of capacity at least once every three months.
Remove the battery and store it separately from the Slat PC.
Store the battery at temperatures between 5°C and 20°C (41°F and 68°F).
CAUTION: The battery self-discharges during storage. Higher temperatures (above 20°C or
68°F) reduce the battery storage life.
Handling Precautions :
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
Do not disassemble, crush, or puncture a battery.
Do not short the external contacts on a battery.
Do not dispose of a battery in fire or water.
Do not expose a battery to temperatures above 60°C (140°F).
Keep the battery away from children.
Avoid exposing the battery to excessive shock or vibration.
Do not use a damaged battery.
If a battery pack has leaking fluids, do not touch any fluids. Dispose of   a leaking battery pack (see
Disposal and Recycling section ).In case of eye contact with fluid, do not rub eyes. Immediately flush eyes
thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of the fluid
remains. Seek medical attention.
Transportation :
Always check all applicable local, national, and international regulations before transporting a Lithium-Ion
battery. Transporting an end-of-life, damaged, or recalled battery may, in certain cases, be specifically limited
or prohibited.
Disposal and Recycling :
Lithium-Ion batteries are subject to disposal and recycling regulations that vary by country and region. Always
check and follow your applicable regulations before disposing of any battery. Contact your local battery
recycling organization. Many countries prohibit the disposal of waste electronic equipment in standard waste
receptacles. Place only discharged batteries in a battery collection container. Use electrical tape or other
approved covering over the battery connection points to prevent short circuits.
The symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the product (electrical and electronic
equipment)should not be placed in municipal waste. Please check local regulations for disposal of
electronic products.
