To charge the battery pack, connect the DC plug of the adapter to the DC port located
at the top of the UMPC, then connect the other end of the adapter to a 100-120V or
220V-240V power outlet.

Starting up
Powering on your UMPC
Like a regular desktop PC, your UMPC automatically runs a series of diagnostic tests
called Power-On Self Test (POST) upon turning it on. After POST is completed, your
UMPC boots up, then its Windows® operating system starts automatically.
To power on your UMPC:

2. Press the switch down to turn on the UMPC. The
UMPC boots up, then the operating system starts
automatically.
3. Use your UMPC as you would use a regular desktop
PC.
NOTES:

battery pack is charged.
• To set or modify the system conguration, press [F2] upon boot up to enter the

Conserving power
Your UMPC is equipped with power saving features which helps conserve power and
maximizes your UMPC’s performance.
Selecting a power plan
One of these power saving features is the power plan which is a collection of advanced
power management settings.
To select a power plan:
1. From your UMPC screen, go to Start > Control Panel > Mobile PC > Change
battery settings.
2. Select or customize a power plan from the list of existing power plans.

Setting your UMPC on Sleep or Hibernate mode
If you want a quick and simple way to conserve power, you can set your UMPC on
Sleep or Hibernate mode:
• Sleep is the same as Suspend-to-RAM (STR). This function stores your current
data and status in RAM while many components are turned OFF. Because RAM is
volatile, it requires power to keep (refresh) the data.
• Hibernate is the same as Suspend-to-Disk (STD) and stores your current data and
status on the hard disk drive. By doing this, RAM does not have to be periodically
refreshed and power consumption is greatly reduced but not completely eliminated
because certain wake-up components like LAN needs to remain powered.
“Hibernate” saves more power compared to “Sleep”.
To set your UMPC on Sleep or Hibernate mode:
1. From your UMPC screen, go to Start.
2. Click the arrow next to the lock icon to display the
menu.
3. From the menu, select either Sleep or Hibernate.
