Optimizing Battery Life; Checking The Battery Level; Battery-Low Warning - Acer ICONIA W510 Manual De Usuario

Optimizing battery life

Optimizing battery life helps you get the most out of battery operation,
prolonging the charge/recharge cycle and improving recharging efficiency.
You are advised to follow the suggestions set out below:
•• Use AC power whenever possible, reserving battery for mobile use.
•• Remove accessories that are not being used (e.g. a USB disk drive), as
they can continue to draw power.
•• Store your PC in a cool, dry place. The recommended temperature is
10° C (50° F) to 30° C (86° F). Higher temperatures cause the battery to
self-discharge faster.
•• Excessive recharging decreases the battery life.
•• Look after your AC adapter and battery.

Checking the battery level

The power meter indicates the current battery level. Rest the cursor over the
battery/power icon on the taskbar to see the battery's present charge level.

Battery-low warning

When using battery power pay attention to the power meter.
Warning! Connect the AC adapter as soon as possible after the
battery-low warning appears. Data may be lost if the battery is
allowed to become fully depleted and the computer shuts down.
