Lithium-Ion Battery

Your Intel-powered Classmate PC-Convertible uses a Lithium-Ion battery pack that provides power when
you do not have access to an AC outlet.
Note: you must charge the battery pack for at least six hours before using it for the first time. In the
Standby Suspend mode, a fully charged battery loses its power in roughly ½ day or less. When not being
used, the battery's power will deplete in one to two months. The battery pack in this system is
replaceable by the user.
Battery Low-Power Warning
1. Low Battery Warning – low battery condition occurs when battery power is reduced to 10
percent.
2. Very Low Battery Warning – very low battery condition occurs at 5 percent of power remaining.
The red battery status LED indicator blinks and the system beeps 3 times in 1.2 sec (each beeping lasts
200ms and then it goes off for 200ms before the next beep). When the Intel-powered Classmate PC-
Convertible warns you of its low battery condition, you will have about three to five minutes to save
your current work.
Warning: Do not expose the battery packs to temperatures below 0ºC (32ºF) or above 60ºC (140ºF).
This may adversely affect the battery pack.
