27 Chapter 3Chapter 3Chapter 3Chapter 3 Managing PowerManaging PowerManaging PowerManaging Power Your Tablet PC operates either on external AC power or on internal battery power. This chapter tells you how you can effectively manage power. To maintain optimal battery performance, it is important that you use the battery in the proper way.
28 AC AdapterAC AdapterAC AdapterAC Adapter CAUTION:  The AC adapter is designed for use with your Tablet PC only. Connecting the AC adapter to another device can damage the adapter.  The AC power cord supplied with your Tablet PC is for use in the country where you purchased your Tablet PC. If you plan to go overseas with the Tablet PC, consult your dealer for the appropriate power cord.  When you disconnect the AC adapter, disconnect from the electrical outlet first and then from the Tablet PC. A reverse procedure may damage the AC adapter or Tablet PC.  When unplugging the connector, always hold the plug head. Never pull on the cord. The AC adapter serves as a converter from AC (Alternating Current) to DC (Direct Current) power because your Tablet PC runs on DC power, but an electrical outlet usually provides AC power. It also charges the battery pack when connected to AC power. The adapter operates on any voltage in the range of 100~240 V AC.

30 Battery PackBattery PackBattery PackBattery Pack The battery pack is the internal power source for the Tablet PC. It is rechargeable using the AC adapter. NOTE: Care and maintenance information for the battery is provided in the “Battery Pack Guidelines” section in Chapter 7. ChargingChargingChargingCharging the Battery Packthe Battery Packthe Battery Packthe Battery Pack NOTE:  Charging will not start if the battery’s temperature is outside the allowed range, which is between 0 °C (32 °F) and 50 °C (122 °F). Once the battery’s temperature meets the requirements, charging automatically resumes.  During charging, do not disconnect the AC adapter before the battery has been fully charged; otherwise you will get a prematurely charged battery. To charge the battery pack, connect the AC adapter to the Tablet PC and an electrical outlet. The Battery Indicator ( ) on the Tablet PC glows amber to indicate that charging is in progress. You are advised to keep the Tablet PC power off while the battery is being charged. When the battery is fully charged, the Battery Indicator glows green. It takes approximately 3 hours to fully charge the battery pack when the power is off and approximately 3.5 hours when the power is on (may need a longer charging time at lower temperatures). CAUTION: After the Tablet PC has been fully recharged, do not immediately disconnect and reconnect the AC adapter to charge it again. Doing so may damage the battery. NOTE: The battery level may automatically lessen due to the self-discharge process (0.21% per day), even when the battery pack is fully charged (100%). This happens no matter if the battery pack is installed in the Tablet PC.
31 Initializing the Battery PackInitializing the Battery PackInitializing the Battery PackInitializing the Battery Pack You need to initialize a new battery pack before using it for the first time or when the actual operating time of a battery pack is much less than expected. Initializing is the process of fully charging, discharging, and then charging. It can take several hours. A software tool called “Gauge Reset” is provided for the purpose. Use the G-Manager program and select the Battery tab to find the tool. Checking the Battery LevelChecking the Battery LevelChecking the Battery LevelChecking the Battery Level NOTE: Any battery level indication is an estimated result. The actual operating time can be different from the estimated time, depending on how you are using the Tablet PC. The operating time of a fully charged battery pack depends on how you are using the Tablet PC. When your applications often access peripherals, you will experience a shorter operating time. By Operating SystemBy Operating SystemBy Operating SystemBy Operating System You can check the approximate battery level using the battery meter function of the operating system. To read the battery level in Windows, tap the battery icon on the taskbar.
