introduction

Welcome to the OQO model 02 computer. The model 02 is a
full-featured Windows XP computer that gives you the total
productivity you need to fulfill your personal and professional
requirements.

mobility

The model 02 is the world’s smallest Windows Vista™
Capable computer. Its mobile form factor allows you to take it
anywhere and its ergonomic design facilitates usability on the
go. Because the model 02 uses the Windows XP operating
system, you have uncompromised access to software
applications and seamless connectivity – anytime, anywhere
– via WiFi, Ethernet, Bluetooth®, or Wireless Wide Area
Network (WWAN) technology.

flexibility

While you’re on the go, the model 02 is your standalone,
handheld computer with its own integrated keyboard, track
stick, and capacitive TouchScrollers. The rugged, magnesium
alloy chassis with shock mounted hard drive and active drop
detect technology helps protect your data in the event your
model 02 is dropped. At the office, the model 02 functions
as your desktop computer connected to an external monitor,

keyboard, and mouse. Also available is an array of accessories
and a docking station that provides additional usage modes.

power

The model 02 was designed to deliver the total computing
performance necessary to achieve personal and professional
productivity, anytime and anywhere. The model 02 – with its
robust processing power, Windows XP operating system,
application compatibility, memory and storage capacity, and
unparalleled connectivity options – is everything you need to
meet your total productivity requirements.

powering up and down

Your model 02 ships with a screen protector and battery
attached.

To turn on your model 02, press the power button located on
the left side of the computer. When idle, conserve battery
power by putting your computer in Standby or Hibernate mode.

To charge the battery, connect the power supply to the model
02 as shown at right, and then plug into an outlet. The battery
will charge whenever the computer is connected to an outlet.

standby mode

Standby mode reduces the power consumption of your
computer by cutting power to non-critical hardware
components. The system maintains power to your computer’s
random access memory (RAM), which allows the system to
quickly restore your active applications and files.

To put your computer into Standby mode, press the power
button.

hibernate mode

Hibernate mode saves your current system state to the
hard disk drive and then powers down your computer. When
you power up again, your open files and applications are re

­stored just as you left them. Hibernate mode draws no power
and is best for conserving battery life and changing batteries.

To put your computer into Hibernate mode, select ‘Shut Down’
from the Start menu and choose the ‘Hibernate’ option or
press the ‘H’ key on your keyboard.

conserving battery power

Additional ways to conserve battery power include:

Turn off wireless radios when not in use.

Turn off the keyboard backlight.

Lower the internal display brightness.

Adjust power settings in the Power Options control panel.

removing and attaching the battery

On the model 02, a fully charged battery typically provides 2 to
3 hours of operating time depending on usage. Double capacity
batteries that provide up to 6 hours of charge are also available
at http://www.oqo.com/store.

charging the battery

A battery fuel gauge is located on the right side of the battery.
When pressed and released, the fuel gauge will illuminate to
indicate remaining battery power. While the battery is charging,
the fuel gauge lights flash in sequence.

A standalone battery detached from the model 02 can be
charged using a battery charging adapter (optional accessory)
with your power supply.

removing the battery

Before replacing the battery, the computer should be plugged
into an outlet, shut down, or placed in Hibernate mode.
Removal of the battery while in Standby mode may result in
loss of user and system data.

To remove the battery, press the battery release button located
next to the power button and lift the battery away from the
computer.

attaching the battery

To attach the battery, rest the battery hooks in the slots
alongside the back edge of the computer before lowering
the battery onto the computer. Press the battery against the
computer until the latch clicks.
