The battery immediately begins to charge whenever the power adapter is connected and the battery is not
fully charged. The battery will charge whether the tablet is switched on or off. The charge time will vary
depending upon the battery level and various factors such as the ambient temperature and whether the
tablet is in use while charging. If the battery level is low, the battery will take approximately five to six hours
to fully charge.
The charging indicator lights as follows:
Warnings:
Do not attempt to charge the tablet battery with any power adapter other than the one supplied with
your Graphire Bluetooth pen tablet. Doing so may damage the tablet, cause a fire, or personal injury
may result.
If the tablet becomes excessively warm or emits an unusual smell while the battery is charging,
immediately disconnect the power adapter from the power outlet and shut down the tablet.

•
When the battery charge falls below 20%, an alert message will appear on your computer display screen
to remind you the battery needs recharging.
•
When the battery is nearly empty, the power indicator light will start flashing – the tablet may stop
operating properly and will soon switch itself off. You should immediately connect the power adapter;
this will allow you to continue working while the battery is charging.
Notes:
•
When you are done working, remember to turn off the tablet in order to conserve battery power.
•
Even when the tablet is off, it still draws a small amount of current from the battery. It is a good idea to
charge the battery before leaving the tablet unused for a number of days.
•
If you will not be using your tablet for an extended period of time (a month or longer), Wacom suggests
unplugging the battery from the tablet connector in order to conserve the charge and battery life.
•
If your battery can no longer hold a charge, the battery should be replaced. See
