Using the battery
The C5t/F5t includes a high-capacity Lithium-ion battery that fits into the back of the unit.
Under normal conditions, you can run the tablet on battery power for up to six hours.
Battery life varies by configuration, applications in use, utilized features, and operating
conditions. Maximum battery capacity decreases with time and use. Motion battery life
estimates based on MobileMark® 2007 performance testing.
DANGER:
To avoid personal injury, handle the battery with care. Don’t open, puncture,
short, or expose it to fire or water. Keep the battery in an environment with ambient
temperature of less than 104°F (40°C). For example, don’t leave the battery in a closed car in
hot weather for an extended time. For more information, see the
Safety and Regulatory
Guide
packaged with the tablet.
Checking tablet battery power
You can check the remaining battery power several ways:
•
When the tablet is plugged in to an outlet, the battery gauge shows whether the battery
is fully charged (green) or charging (amber).
•
When the tablet is running on battery, pressing the battery gauge button on the front
displays status lights indicating the current level of charge.
•
From the Motion Dashboard.
•
From the Windows® notification area.
