Battery Power

This Tablet PC is equipped with a built-in high-capacity Lithium-ion Polymer battery pack. The rechargeable Lithium-ion Polymer battery pack is an internal power source of the Tablet PC.

Be aware that this battery pack may be damaged if users try to disassemble the battery pack on their own. Also, please note that the limited warranty of the battery pack will be voided if the battery pack is disassembled by non-authorized technicians.

Please follow your local laws and regulations to recycle the Tablet PC and the built-in battery pack.

Conserving Battery Power

Efficient battery power is critical to maintain a normal operation. If the battery power is not managed well, the saved data and customized settings may be lost.

To optimize battery life and avoid a sudden power loss, read the tips below:

Suspend system operation if the system will be idle for a while or shorten the suspend time period.

Turn off the system if you won’t be using it for a period of time.

Disable unnecessary settings or remove idle peripherals.

Connect an AC/DC adapter to the system whenever possible.

Charging the Battery Pack

The built-in battery pack can be recharged when the Tablet PC is connected to the AC power. Please pay attention to the following tips before recharging the battery:

You can use the system, suspend system operation or shut down and turn off the system without interrupting the charging process.

The built-in battery pack uses Lithium-ion Polymer battery cells that have no “memory effect.” It is unnecessary to discharge the battery before recharging. However, to optimize the life of battery, we suggest that consuming the battery power completely once a month is necessary.

The actual charging time will be determined by the applications in use.
