The main battery can be recharged while it is in the MX9:
•by connecting the MX9 AC power adapter to the I/O connector at the base of the MX9.
•by docking the MX9 in a powered desk cradle
•by docking the MX9 in a powered vehicle cradle
•or by connecting the car power adapter (CLA) to the I/O connector at the base of the MX9.
Note: An uninterrupted external power source (wall AC adapters) transfers power to the computer’s internal charging circuitry which, in turn, recharges the main battery and internal battery. Frequent connection to an external power source, if feasible, is recommended to maintain internal battery charge status as the internal battery cannot be recharged by a dead or missing main battery.
