Using a Battery
CAUTION: Using an incompatible battery may increase the risk of fire or
explosion. Replace the battery only with a compatible battery purchased from
Dell. The battery is designed to work with your Dell computer. Do not use a battery
from other computers with your computer.
CAUTION: Do not dispose of batteries with household waste. When your battery
no longer holds a charge, call your local waste disposal or environmental agency
for advice on disposing of a lithium-ion battery. See “Battery Disposal” in the
Product Information Guide.
CAUTION: Misuse of the battery may increase the risk of fire or chemical burn.
Do not puncture, incinerate, disassemble, or expose the battery to temperatures
above 65°C (149°F). Keep the battery away from children. Handle damaged or
leaking batteries with extreme care. Damaged batteries may leak and cause
personal injury or equipment damage.

18 Quick Reference Guide
Battery Performance
NOTE: For information about the Dell warranty for your computer, see the Product
Information Guide or separate paper warranty document that shipped with your
computer.
For optimal computer performance and to help preserve BIOS settings,
operate your Dell™ Tablet-PC with the main battery installed at all times.
One battery is supplied as standard equipment in the battery bay.
NOTE: Because the battery may not be fully charged, use the AC adapter to
connect your new computer to an electrical outlet the first time you use the
computer. For best results, operate the computer with the AC adapter until the
battery is fully charged. To view battery charge status, check the Power Meter in
Power Options (see “Accessing Power Options Properties” in your User’s Guide.)
NOTE: Battery operating time varies depending on operating conditions.
NOTE: It is recommended that you connect your computer to an electrical outlet
when writing to a CD or DVD.
Operating time on battery power is significantly reduced when you perform
operations including, but not limited to, the following:
Using optical drives.
Using wireless communications devices, PC Cards, Express Cards, media
memory cards, or USB devices.
Using high-brightness display settings, 3D screen savers, or other power-
intensive programs such as complex 3D graphics applications.
Running the computer in maximum performance mode. See “Configuring
Power Management Settings” in your
User’s Guide
for information about
accessing Windows Power Options Properties or Dell QuickSet, which you
can use to configure power management settings.
You can check the battery charge before you insert the battery into the
computer. You can also set power management options to alert you when the
battery charge is low.
Quick Reference Guide 19
Checking the Battery Charge
The following features provide information on the battery charge:
Dell QuickSet Battery Meter
Microsoft Windows
Power Meter
window and
Power icon
(
in
Windows Vista and
in Windows XP)
Battery charge gauge and health gauge
Low-battery warning
Dell™ QuickSet Battery Meter
If Dell QuickSet is installed, press <Fn><F3> to display the QuickSet
Battery Meter. The Battery Meter displays status, battery health, charge level,
and charge completion time for the battery in your computer.
For more information about QuickSet, right-click the QuickSet icon in the
taskbar, and click Help.
Charge Gauge
By using the charge gauge on the battery, you can check:
Battery charge (check by pressing and
releasing
the status button)
Battery health (check by pressing and
holding
the status button)
The battery operating time is largely determined by the number of times it is
charged. After hundreds of charge and discharge cycles, batteries lose some
charge capacity—or battery health. That is, a battery can show a status of
“charged” but maintain a reduced charge capacity (health).
Check the Battery Charge
To check the battery charge, press and release the status button on the battery
charge gauge to illuminate the charge-level lights. Each light represents
approximately 20 percent of the total battery charge. For example, if the
battery has 80 percent of its charge remaining, four of the lights are on. If no
lights appear, the battery has no charge.
20 Quick Reference Guide
Check the Battery Health
NOTE: You can check battery health in one of two ways: by using the charge gauge
on the battery as described below or by using the Battery Meter in Dell QuickSet.
For information about QuickSet, right-click the icon in the taskbar, and click Help.
To check the battery health using the charge gauge, press and hold the status
button on the battery charge gauge for at least 3 seconds. If no lights appear,
the battery is in good condition, and more than 80 percent of its original
charge capacity remains. Each light represents an incremental degradation. If
five lights appear, less than 60 percent of the charge capacity remains, and you
should consider replacing the battery. See "Using a Battery" on page 17 for
more information about the battery operating time.
Low-Battery Warning
NOTICE: To avoid losing or corrupting data, save your work immediately after a
low-battery warning, then connect the computer to an electrical outlet. If the
battery runs completely out of power, hibernate mode begins automatically.
A pop-up window warns you when the battery charge is approximately
90 percent depleted. If two batteries are installed, the low-battery warning
means that the combined charge of both batteries is approximately
90 percent depleted. The computer enters hibernate mode when the battery
charge is at a critically low level.
You can change the settings for the battery alarms in QuickSet or the Power
Options Properties window. See “Configuring Power Management Settings”
in your User’s Guide for information about accessing QuickSet or the Power
Options Properties window.
To manually enter hibernate mode in Windows Vista, click the Windows
Vista Start button , and move your mouse over the right triangle beside
the Lock icon to open the Power Options Properties window, and then click
Hibernate.
To manually enter hibernate mode in Windows XP, you must first enable
Hibernate mode.
To enable Hibernate mode:
