Using the battery

The system runs on battery power when it is not plugged in. The battery is located on the back of the unit.

To maximize the performance of the battery, deplete the battery charge to less than 10% every 30 days. To deplete the battery, use the tablet on battery power without AC power until the battery charge is less than 10%.

Checking battery power

You can check the remaining battery power from Motion Dashboard, from the battery icon in the notification area, or from the battery itself.

•Open Motion Dashboard to the Power panel (page 20).

To check the battery gauge
