Useful Information

Note: Battery characteristic varies depending on factors such as ambient temperature, charging method, load current, aging, etc.

For example, at low temperature the chemicals of the battery are more inactive, thus decreases the output power.

The battery gauge should only be used as a reference. Please do not expect it to show the exact amount of the power remaining.

There is no memory effect on Lithium Ion battery cells. However, discharge the battery to nearly empty every month will help calibrate the internal gauge.

Charging the Battery

Plug in the AC adapter (or optional vehicle adapter) to start the battery charging. If the battery is already full, the sense circuitry will stop high current charge within several minutes.

There are two LED indicators next to the power indicator for the Primary and Secondary battery respectively. Indicator turns ON when the battery is charging and turns OFF when the battery charge is completed.

To charge the Secondary Battery, simply install it into the computer and attach the AC adapter. The internal charger will charge the Primary and Secondary batteries simultaneously.

Optional Dual Battery Charger can charge Primary and Secondary batteries externally.

Boot Up and POST

The computer turns ON and loads the operating system (such as Windows) into the system memory. This start-up procedure is called “boot up”.
