Checking the Battery Level You can check the remaining battery power in the Windows® battery status indicator located at the lower right-hand corner of the task tray as shown on the right. The Battery Status icon only appears in the task tray while the unit is running on battery power but not while the unit is running off an external power source through the AC Adapter. You can also access the power meter by clicking the Power Options icon in the Windows Control Panel. Prolonging the Battery's Life and Usage Cycles There are ways to prolong the useful life of the battery. • Store the battery pack at room temperature. Higher temperatures tend to deplete battery power at a faster rate. • Make good use of the power management function. Save To Disk saves the most energy by storing current system contents in a hard disk space reserved for this function. • Disable the parallel and serial ports if no devices are attached. • Eject any PC Card from the card slot when not in use. Even when an inserted PC Card is not in operation, it still draws a small amount of power. ViewSonic Tablet PC V1250 21
