Recharging the Battery Pack
If the Battery Pack is attached to the Pedion (or
Multimedia Pack), it will begin to recharge as soon as
you connect the Pedion to the AC power supply. In
fact the Battery Pack will recharge first, followed by
the Pedion’s internal battery.
If the Battery Pack is separated from the Pedion, it
can be recharged by connecting the AC adapter to it
directly (see diagram).
The Battery Pack’s Charge Status light is orange
while the pack is recharging, green when it is
recharged. The time to recharge depends on the
method you use:
Recharge via Pedion (while working)...........30 hours
Recharge via Pedion (while turned off) ..........8 hours
Recharge directly via AC adapter ...................8 hours
Important
You must not connect the AC adapter to the Battery
Pack while the pack is attached to the Pedion or
Multimedia Pack.
