Chapter 3: Getting Started
Installing the battery
To install the battery:
1 Close the LCD panel.
2 Turn your convertible tablet PC over so the bottom is facing up.
3 Hold the battery label-side down and lower it into the open battery
bay until the battery clicks into place.
4 Slide the battery lock to the locked position.
Connecting the AC adapter
You can run your convertible tablet PC using an AC adapter or your
convertible tablet PC’s battery. The battery was shipped to you partially
charged. You should use the AC adapter right away to fully charge the
battery. Allow three hours for the battery to fully charge.
Important If the battery is not fully charged before you use your
convertible tablet PC on battery power for the first time, the
battery life may be much shorter than you expect. If the
battery life seems short even after being charged for
three hours, the battery may need to be recalibrated. For
information on recalibrating the battery, see “Recalibrating
the battery” on page 77.
