Chapter 03: Battery Usage and Care
To calibrate the battery pack, follow these steps:
1. Turn the computer off. Connect the AC adapter and let the
battery fully recharge.
2. Disconnect the AC Adapter and Power On the computer. Let
the battery run down until it is so low that you hear
continuous warning beeps and the system automatically
enter the Suspend mode.
3. Reconnect the AC adapter, let the battery fully recharge and
then run the computer with the external power still
connected for at least five (5) continuous hours.
The battery pack should now be properly calibrated. If you find
that battery life doesn’t correspond to the battery status as
reported by your operating system, repeat steps -3 again.
If after performing a calibration for a second you still find you are
having a problem with battery life, contact your dealer and
arrange for a replacement as the battery may be defective.
In general, using the battery until the “Battery Low” warning
indicator appears and then fully recharging the battery (full
discharge/charge cycle) will ensure the accuracy of the battery
status gauge.
If you find you are using the computer almost exclusively
attached to an external power source, calibrating at least once a
month is recommended.
Charging the Battery Under Typical Conditions
When you connect the computer to an electrical outlet, the
Smart Battery IC in the battery pack checks the battery’s charge
and temperature. If charging is necessary, the battery indicator
on the front of the Sahara Slate PC will glow amber and the AC
adapter will automatically charge the battery.
