Charging the Battery
Your battery ships with some level of charge, but Xplore Technologies recommends
that you fully charge the battery before first use. Charging the battery typically
takes 1.5 to 2.5 hours (depending on the size of the battery included with your
computer).
To charge the battery while it is installed in the computer:
Connect an approved power source,
such as an AC adapter or cigarette
lighter adapter (CLA), to the power
port on the tablet.
