Charging a drained battery
When the battery light starts flashing, you will need to charge the battery in order to save your
work. This is done as follows.
1. Unplug everything from the system. (For example, unplug the VGA cable.)
2. Place the system in standby mode.
3. Connect the AC adapter to the electric outlet. Plug in the AC Adapter into the
AC/DC Power Jack at the bottom of Scribbler
4.
Return the system to operating mode.
AC Adaptor
The AC adaptor converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage to a controlled 12V
for the Scribbler. It can automatically adjust to any voltage from 100 to 240 volts and to a
frequency of either 50 or 60 hertz, enabling you to use the computer in almost any country.
Note!
Use of the wrong adaptor may damage the Scribbler.
