Using the Battery

The removable NiCad battery powers the computer when the

AC adapter is not connected. The length of time the battery can

provide power depends on how you use the computer. If you

use a bright screen display and access the hard disk and

diskette drive often, you consume more battery power and

shorten the length of the charge.

The computer alerts you by flashing the low battery light when

the battery is low. When you have only 1 to 3 minutes of

battery power remaining, the system beeps loudly. If you have

the AC adapter, you can connect it now and continue using the

computer. Otherwise, save your work and exit your program to

preserve any data.

To increase the amount of time you can use the computer

without electrical power, you can purchase additional batteries.

Maintaining a supply of charged batteries allows you to replace

a spent battery and continue your work.

Note

Use only the battery designed for use with the ActionNote

(model number A880632).

Replacing the Battery
