Disposing of Used Batteries
When an Tablet PC battery is no longer serviceable, dispose of it responsibly
at a hazardous materials recycling center. Do not toss it in the trash where it
will be sent to a landfill.
Battery and Power Management Hints
• Use AC power whenever available to lengthen the battery’s usable
life. Leave the battery in place when using AC power.
• Use AC power when installing software or writing to a CD and, for
best performance, when using a DVD player.
• Whether using AC or battery power, when leaving the Tablet PC
unattended, place the system in Stand By or Hibernate mode.
• Keep in mind that the display, processor, PC cards, wireless cards, and
accessory drives all draw on the battery, so adjust properties and
disable unused accessories and PC cards when operating on
battery power.
• When running on battery, adjust the power mode and display
brightness to lower settings to prolong the
battery’s charge.
