Battery-Handling Guidelines

The following are guidelines for properly handling the PowerBook 190/5300 Series batteries:

Warning: NiMH batteries contain toxic materials. Send undamaged, dead batteries to Apple for recycling—do not discard dead batteries with other waste. If battery is damaged, do not return it to Apple. Dispose of damaged batteries according to local ordinances. Review battery handling and disposal instructions in Safety Information in Bulletins/Safety.

Handle the battery carefully. Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate, or incinerate it.

Do not short-circuit the battery terminals.

Basics

Power Information - 11

 

 

• Do not leave a battery in the computer for longer than a

 

week without plugging in the power adapter.

• Keep the contact cover on the battery when the battery is

 

not in the computer.

• Do not leave the battery in hot locations (such as the

 

trunk of a car).

Keep the battery in a cool, dark place; do not store it for

 

longer than 6 months without recharging.

• Completely discharge and then recharge the battery once every 90 days.

• Fully charge a replacement battery before using it; Apple ships batteries in a partially charged state.

Basics

Nickel-Metal-Hydride Batteries

The PowerBook 190/5300 Series computers use nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) batteries. Each battery provides power for up to 4 hours of work time, depending on the system configuration and battery conservation features employed.

Battery Verification

The Control Strip on the PowerBook 190/5300 Series desktop indicates the battery charge and the rate at which the battery is being used. To determine the actual battery charge, use a voltmeter:

1Set the voltmeter appropriately so it is able to measure 14 volts on the DC scale.

2Hold the positive probe of the voltmeter to the positive battery terminal and the

Power Adapter Verification

Follow the steps below to verify that a PowerBook 190/5300 Series power adapter is functioning correctly. Do not use these output voltages to verify any other PowerBook adapter.

1Plug the AC adapter into a wall socket.

2Set a voltmeter to the 10 volts DC scale.

3Using the narrow test probes for the leads on your voltmeter, touch

the positive voltmeter probe to the inside of the adapter

 

plug, and touch the negative voltmeter probe to the

 

outside of the adapter plug. If the reading is not between

PC Card Handling - 17

 

 

 

PC Card Handling

Two PC Card slots (formerly PCMCIA) are a feature in the PowerBook 190/5300 Series. The two slots accept a variety of third-party PC Cards.

There are three types of PC Cards: Type I (3 mm), Type II (5 mm), and Type III (10.5 mm). Type I and Type II cards fit in either the upper or lower slot of the PC Card unit.

Type III cards fit in the lower slot and take up both slots.

The following are guidelines for properly handling the PC Card:

Use only cards that are compatible with the PC Card unit. Refer to the compatibility information that came with the card. If you cannot find the compatibility information, call the card vendor.

Basics

PC Card Handling - 18

 

 

 

 

• Do not insert anything other than a PC Card into the card

 

slots.

 

• The PC Card eject button functions regardless of whether

 

the computer is on or off.

 

• Before ejecting a PC Card, make sure nothing is blocking

 

the slot. To immediately reinsert the card, pull it out an

 

inch or more and then push it back in.

 

• Eject a PC Card using the PCMCIA Eject control panel or

 

the PCMCIA Quick Eject module in the computer's

 

Control Strip.

PRAM and Power Manager Reset - 19

 

 

 

PRAM and Power Manager Reset

Caution: Resetting parameter RAM (PRAM) erases the contents of the RAM disk, if there is one. Resetting PRAM also restores the default settings in most control panels. After you reset PRAM, be sure to check any custom settings for the desktop pattern, memory, network, AppleTalk, trackpad, power conservation, and so forth.

Resetting PRAM

Reset/zap PRAM from the shutdown state. Note that resetting PRAM when the computer is shut down also resets the power manager.

Follow these steps to reset PRAM: 1 Unplug the AC adapter.

Basics

PRAM and Power Manager Reset - 20

 

 

 

2

Power on the computer by pressing the Power key.

3

Immediately hold down the Option-Command-P-R keys.

4

Keep holding down these four keys until you have heard

 

the startup chime at least one additional time after the

 

initial startup chime.

 

(If the PowerBook emits multiple chimes when you are

 

holding down the Option-Command-P-R keys, skip to

 

Step 7.)

 

Note: Unlike other PowerBook models, these PowerBook

 

computers often emit only a single startup chime. Then

 

the screen goes dark/blank and the green sleep light

 

stays on (it does not blink on and off as it does when the

 

computer is in sleep mode).

5

Press the Reset button once and, after a brief pause, the

 

PowerBook should start up.

Basics

PRAM and Power Manager Reset - 21

 

 

 

Note: If the PowerBook powers off and the sleep display light stays a solid green with no blinking, press the Reset button again.

6If the PowerBook does not power on from the Reset button, turn the PowerBook on by pressing the Power key.

7After the computer has started up, select Shut Down from the Special menu.

8Plug in the AC adapter. If the computer remains shut down, you will know that you have successfully reset the PRAM and power manager and your computer should now function normally. If, however, the computer powers on when you plug in the AC adapter, you need to reset the power manager.

Basics PRAM and Power Manager Reset - 22

Resetting the Power Manager

Follow these steps to reset the power manager:

1Remove the battery.

2Disconnect the AC adapter from the PowerBook and unplug it from the wall outlet.

3Press and hold the Reset button for one minute.

4Plug the AC adapter into the wall outlet.

5Connect the AC adapter to the PowerBook. It should now behave normally when you choose Shut Down from the Special menu.
