Charging the Battery Pack

The Stylistic LT P-600 battery pack can be charged while it is installed in the pen tablet.
To do so:
1. Connect an AC adapter to the DC input connector on the pen tablet. The DC Input icon appears
in the Status display. If the battery pack charge level is below 90%, the battery pack begins
charging and the Charging icon appears in the Status display. If the battery pack charge is 90% or
higher when you connect DC power, the battery pack will not charge, preventing overcharging the
battery pack.
2. Look at the Battery Gauge icon in the Status display to determine the percent of charge in the
battery pack. See "Status Display" in Chapter 1 of this manual for a description of the Battery
Gauge icon.
As long as DC power remains connected to the pen tablet, the charging process continues until the
battery pack charge reaches 100%. Charge times shown in Table 2-3, "Battery Pack Charging Time,"
on page 22 are for a fully discharged battery pack charging both while the pen tablet is and is not in
use.

Also note the following with respect to charging the battery pack:
• You can use the system, suspend system operation, or shut down and turn off the system without
interrupting the charging process; however, using the system while the battery pack is charging
will cause the battery pack to charge at a slower rate, as noted in Table 2-3, "Battery Pack
Charging Time," on page 22.
• As noted in the procedure above, the system will not begin charging the battery pack if the
battery pack charge level is 90% or higher when the system is initially connected to external DC
power. (This prevents the battery pack from being overcharged.)
• The Stylistic LT P-600 battery pack uses Lithium ion battery cells which have no "memory effect."
You do not need to discharge the battery pack before you begin charging.
