Resolving Low-Battery Conditions

Ä
CAUTION: If the tablet PC has reached a critical low-battery condition
(one percent of a full charge) and has initiated Hibernation, do not slide
the power switch until Hibernation is complete. Hibernation is complete
when the power/standby light turns off.
When a Charged Battery Pack Is Available
To resolve a low-battery condition, select one of the following
options:
■
Turn off the tablet PC or initiate Hibernation, insert a charged
battery pack while the tablet PC is off or in Hibernation, then
turn on the tablet PC.
■
To replace the battery with minimal disruption to your work,
slide and release the power switch 1 to initiate Standby,
confirm that Standby has been initiated by making sure the
power/standby light is flashing 2, then replace the battery
pack within one minute.
Ä
CAUTION: To prevent loss of work, be sure to replace the battery pack
within one minute. The bridge battery runs the tablet PC in Standby for up
to one minute, at which point the tablet PC will shut down and lose
unsaved work if no external power is available.
Do not immediately repeat the Standby procedure for replacing a battery
pack. The bridge battery requires time to recharge between uses.
