CHAPTER 4 Managing Power Your M9020 operates either on external AC power or on battery power. This chapter tells you how you can effectively manage power. To maintain optimal battery performance, it is important that you use the battery in the proper way.
Battery Pack The operating time of a fully charged battery pack depends on how you use the device. When you use applications that often access peripherals, or when you stay connected to a wireless network, the operating time of the battery may be shortened. WARNING: • Do not disassemble the battery pack. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Doing so may present risk of exposure to harmful chemicals, explosion or fire.
Via Charger (Optional) 1. From the top side of the battery pack, align and place the battery into the battery charger. 2. Press down on the battery pack. 3. Repeat the above steps to install the second battery pack if necessary. 4. Plug the DC cord of the AC adapter into the power connector of the battery charger. 5. Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the AC adapter. 6. Then plug the male end of the AC power cord into an electrical outlet. 6 4 5 7.
Checking the Battery Level Tap the battery icon ( ) or ( ) on the taskbar. The window below appears. Or On battery power While charging the battery NOTE: The battery capacity indicator shows only an approximate battery level status.
Replacing the Battery Pack If you rely on battery power for a long period of time, consider purchasing additional batteries to allow a continuous use of the device.
