To Remove the Battery Pack:
Lithium-Ion Battery
Your Intel-powered classmate PC uses a Lithium-Ion battery pack that provides power when you don’t have access to an AC outlet.
You must charge the battery pack for at least six hours before using it for the first time. In the Standby Suspend mode, a fully charged battery loses its power in roughly 1/2 day or less.
22
When not being used, the battery’s power will deplete in one to two months. The battery pack in this system is replaceable by the end user.
Battery Low-Power Warning
1. Low Battery Warning
Low battery condition occurs when battery power is reduced to 10 percent. The orange battery status LED indicator blinks and the system beeps once every 16 seconds or so.
2. Very Low Battery Warning
Very Low battery condition occurs at 5 percent power remaining. The orange battery status LED indicator blinks and the system beeps at 4-second interval.
When the Intel-powered classmate PC warns you of its low battery condition, you will have about three to five minutes to save your current work.
Do not expose battery packs to temperatures below 0 degree Celsius (32 degree F) or above 60 degree C (140 degree F). This may adversely affect the battery pack.
Charging the Battery and Charging Time
To charge the battery, plug the AC adapter into the Intel-powered classmate PC and an electrical outlet.
For a totally discharged battery, it will take approximately two hours to charge to 90% capacity, and approximately three hours to 100% capacity while Intel-powered classmate PC is powered off. It will take about 5 hrs to charge the battery to 100% capacity while Intel­powered classmate PC is powered on.
When the battery is fully charged, the battery charge indicator becomes green.
If system runs at heavy loads or in a high temperature environment, the battery may not be fully charged. You need to continue to charge it with the AC adapter plugged in until the charging LED turns green.
23
System will not charge battery when
temperature exceeds 40C.
Checking the Battery Level
You can check the remaining battery power in Operating System battery status indicator.
Prolonging the Battery’s Life and Usage Cycles
There are ways you can prolong the use of battery.
¾ Use the AC adapter wh erever AC wall outlet is available. This
will ensure uninterrupted computing.
¾ Store the battery pack in room temperature. Higher
temperature tends to deplete the battery’s power faster.
¾ Make good use of the power management function. Save To
Disk (Hibernate) saves the most energy by storing current system contents in a hard disk space reserved for this function.
¾ The life expectancy of the battery is approximately 300
recharges.
¾ See the notices section in the beginning of the user manual
on how to care for the battery pack.
¾ Use Function+F9 key to decrease the brightness of the
screen.
To achieve optimal battery performance, you may need to do a battery calibration at a 3-month interval. To do this:
¾ Fully charge the battery. ¾ Then discharge the battery by entering the BIOS setup screen.
(Press DEL key as soon as you turn on the compute r. And let it remain at the setup screen until the battery runs out.
¾ Fully charge the battery again.

Standby Suspend
The system automatically enters this mode after a period of inactivity, which is set in the Power Schemes dialog box. In Standby mode, hardware devices, such as display panel and hard disk, are turned off to conserve energy.
Hibernate Suspend
In this mode, all system data are saved in the hard disk before powering down. When this mode is activated, all system state and contents are saved to the hard disk drive after a period of inactivity defined by the user.
No power or very little power is drawn from the battery module under this mode.
However, depending on how much RAM that has been installed on your computer, the amount of time the system requires to restore all its previous contents can range from five to 20 seconds.

Using Password Protection
Two Levels of Password Protection are available. The BIOS provides both a Supervisor and a User password. If you try to activate both passwords, the Supervisor password must be set first.
The passwords activate two different levels of protection:
1. System always asks for password every time it is powered on.
2. System asks for password only when you attempt to enter BIOS utility.
The passwords are encrypted and stored in NVRAM. Make sure you write them down or memorize them. If you loose the passwords, the computer may need to be sent back to the factory or to an authorized service dealer to reset the passwords.

Your computer has been fully tested and complies with the system specifications before shipping. However, incorrect operations and/or mishandling may cause problems.
This chapter provides a reference for identifying and correcting common hardware and software problems that you may encou nter.
When you encounter a problem, you should first try to go through the recommendations in this chapter. Instead of returning the computer and waiting for repair, you may easily solve the problems by considering the following scenarios and possible solutions. If the error continues, contact your reseller for service information.
Before taking further actions, consider the following suggestions:
¾ Check to see if the problem persists when all the external
devices are removed.
¾ Check to see if the power cord is properly plugged into the
wall outlet and to the computer.
¾ Check to see the power indicator of the computer is on. ¾ Check to see if your keyboard is operational by pressing and
holding any key.
¾ Check for any incorrect or loose cable connections. Make
sure the latches on the connectors latch securely on to the receptor end.
¾ Be sure you have not performed an incorrect setting on the
hardware devices in the BIOS Setup utility. A faulty setting may cause the system to malfunction. If you are not sure of the changes you made, try to restore all the settings to factory
41
defaults.
¾ Be sure all the device drivers are installed properly. For
example, without the audio driver properly installed, the speakers and microphone will not work.
¾ If external devices such as USB camera, scanner or printer
do not function correctly when connected to the system, it is usually the device’s own problem. Consult the device’s manufacturer first.
¾ Some software programs, which have not gone through
rigorous coding and testing, may cause problems during your routine use. Consult the software vendor for problem solving.
¾ Be sure to go to BIOS SETUP and load DEFAULT SETTING
after BIOS re-flash.
AAuuddiioo PPrroobblleemmss
No speaker output
¾ Software volume control is turned down in Operating
System’s Sound System or is muted. Double-click the speaker icon on the lower right corner of the taskbar to see if the speaker has been muted or turned down all the way.
¾ Most audio problems are software-related. If your computer
worked before, chances are software may have been set incorrectly.
Sound cannot be recorded
¾ Double-click the speaker icon on the lower right corner of the
taskbar to see if the microphone has been muted.
¾ Click Options and select Properties. ¾ Select Recording and click the OK button. ¾ After clicking the OK button, the recording volume control
panel will appear.

The hard disk drive does not work or is not recognizable:
¾ If you had just performed a hard disk upgrade, make sure the
hard drive connector is not loose and the hard disk drive is also correctly seated. Remove it and reinsert it firmly, and restart your PC. (Refer to Chapter 5 for details.)
¾ The new HDD may need to be partitioned and reformatted.
O/S and drivers will need to be re-installed as well.
42
¾ Check the hard disk indicator LED. When you access a file,
the LED lamp should light up momentarily.
¾ The new HDD may be defective or is not compatible. ¾ If your computer has been subjected to static electricity or
physical shock, you may have damaged the disk drive.
The hard drive is making abnormal whining noises
¾ You should back up your files as soon as possible. ¾ Make sure the source of noise is indeed from the hard drive
and not the fan or other devices.
The hard disk drive has reached its capacity
¾ Archive files or programs that you had no longer used by
moving them to an alternative storage medium (card reader, etc.) or uninstall programs that are no longer u se d.
¾ Many browsers store files in the hard drive as a cache to
speed up the performance. Check the program’s Online Help for instructions on decreasing the cache size or on removing temporary Internet files.
The hard disk takes longer to read a file
¾ Interrupt requests or problems with other hard ware devices
may have occupied the CPU and therefore slows down the system performance.

The computer becomes hot
¾ In a 35oC environment, the certain areas of the computer’s
back case are expected to reach 50 degrees.
¾ Make sure the air vents are not blocked. ¾ If the fan does not seem to be working at high temperature
(50 degrees Celsius and up), contact the service center.
¾ Certain programs that are processor-intensive may increase
the computer temperature to a degree where the computer automatically slows down its CPU clock to protect itsel f from heat damage.
The program appears stopped or runs very slowly
¾ Restart the computer. ¾ This may be normal for Operating System when it is
processing other CPU-intensive programs in the background or when the system is accessing slow-speed devices such the floppy disk drive.
¾ You may be running too many applications. Try to close some
applications or increase system memory for higher performance.
¾ The processor may have been overheated due to the
system’s inability to regulate its internal temperature. Make sure the computer’s ventilation grills are not blocked.
