Battery Usage and Care
When the battery’s power level drops to a “Battery Very Low”
status the beeping sound will be heard every second.
When this continuous beeping occurs, your battery has only
approximately one to two minutes of charge left. You should
save what you are working on and plug in the AC power adapter
to avoid potential data loss.
When there is only one minute of battery charge remaining, the
computer will suspend its current state to the hard drive and
power off. Plug in the AC adapter and turn the computer back on
to resume your work.
About Battery Pack Usage
Over time, even with proper care, battery performance (the time

recharged) will decrease. Depending on how often the battery is
used, how many times it has been charged and the conditions
under which it is used, you may need to purchase a new battery
during the life of your computer
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage, only use replacement batteries
recommended by TabletKiosk. To prevent the loss of data when the
system loses power, do not remove the battery pack while the
power is on unless attached to an external power source.
NOTE: Do not dispose of batteries with household waste. When your
battery no longer holds a charge, call your local waste disposal or
environmental agency for advice on disposing of a lithium-ion
battery.
Real Time Clock Battery
In order to maintain certain system information while the power
is off, the motherboard contains a small built-in battery pack that
constantly supplies power to the system.
If the computer is left without a power source for long periods of
time, this battery can be exhausted and system information will
