Your Pixel C’s battery will last up to 10 hours before you have to recharge.*   

Learn how to charge your Pixel C Keyboard. 

Charge your Pixel C 

Charge the battery on your Pixel C by plugging a power adapter into the USB 
Type-C port on the left side of the tablet. We recommend using the charger 
that came with your Pixel C. 

Use the battery icon to check battery life 

You can see how much power is left, what’s using your battery, and how long 
until it’s fully charged. 

0.  Swipe down with two fingers from the top of the screen to show the 

Quick Settings menu. 

1.  Touch the battery icon  . A window will open to show you: 

1.  How much power is left 
2.  What’s using your battery 
3.  If your Pixel C is charging, it’ll show how long until it’s fully 

charged 

Use the lightbar to check battery life 

You can check battery life using the lightbar in two ways: 

o

 

Connect your charger and the lightbar will automatically light up 

o

 

Put your Pixel C to sleep or place the Pixel C face down on the 
keyboard 

The color of the lightbar on top of your Pixel C changes depending on how 
much life is left in the battery: 

Color  Status 

Green  Battery is fully charged. 
Yellow  The number of yellow bars indicates how much power is left. More bars 

means the battery has more charge in it. 

Red 

Battery is low. 

BlinkingBattery is charging. 
Off 

Battery is drained. 

Note: 

When your Pixel C is plugged in, the lightbar only turns on when the 

device is awake to save power while charging. When you tap the lightbar 
twice with two fingers or start using your Pixel C again, the lightbar will turn 
back on.
