Using your webbook
Getting Started
After unpacking your webbook please check you have all the package contents
and they are in good order. If you are missing anything or any item has been
damaged please contact the store you purchased your webbook from, or call
customer services on 0870 087 0168.
Power and Battery Charging
The webbook has a rechargeable
battery which will give you usage on
the move when fully recharged. You
can also use the power adapter
plugged into mains electricity for
continuous use (the webbook will
recharge its battery while in
operation).
Elonex recommends that the first time you charge your battery you should
charge it for 8 hours to get the best battery life from your webbook. Plug the
power adapter into the power port (see Appearance) and mains electricity.
When the battery is charging the Charging Indicator (14) will go orange, when
fully charged it will turn green. To turn your webbook on, press the Power
Button (19) and wait for the operating system to fully load.
Shutting Down
When you have finished using your webbook you can shut down using the
following procedure;
Full system shutdown
: use the Shut Down function of the operating system to
fully shut the software and hardware down.
Low power shutdown
: when the webbook detects that its battery is very low it
will automatically power down. It is recommended that you regularly save your
work to prevent any data loss when this happens.
Note:
If the system crashes due to an unknown cause press and hold the power
button to force a shutdown. You can then start up normally.
