Battery Charging
When you use the
AC adapter
to connect your GoBook II to a power outlet, the internal battery will begin to recharge
automatically. While the battery is charging, the Battery Power Indicator
will be flashing green. When the battery
is fully charged, it will turn off.
If your computer is turned off, or suspended to RAM, a fully discharged battery will take about 4 hours to recharge. If
you computer is turned on and is not in suspend mode, it will take 4- 6 hours to recharge the battery. Refer to the
following table:
NOTE
a fully charged Li-Ion battery can run the GoBook II for approximately 3 hours or more.
Power Saving Modes

Panel. The Power Management (Power Options) dialog box allows you to set different actions to take when the
computer is left idle for a certain amount of time.

There are several possible settings for suspend mode. You may
Suspend to RAM
