1.3 Charging the Battery
Fully charge the battery before starting to use your A701 for the first time.
When charging the battery for the very first time, charge it for at least 8 hours.
1. Plug the converter to the AC
adapter (
).
2. Connect the DC end of the AC
adapter to the Mini-USB
connector on the bottom of your
A701 (
), and plug the other
end of the AC adapter into a wall
outlet (
).
3. The charge indicator glows in
red when charging is in progress.
Do not disconnect your A701
from AC power until the battery
is fully charged, as indicated by
the red indicator turning into
green. This will take a couple of
hours.
Whenever possible, keep your A701 connected to the AC adapter and a power
source. Doing so keeps the battery charged.
NOTE: Your A701 can also be charged when it is connected to a desktop computer via the
USB cable.
CAUTION: For optimal performance of the lithium battery, take note of the following:
The environment temperature for charging should be 0~40°C.
When a battery is fully discharged due to a long period of usage or idleness, connect
A701 to AC power for charging, and wait for at least 5 minutes before turning it on.
Do not charge the battery where the temperature is high (e.g. in direct sunlight).
There is no need to fully discharge the battery before charging. You can charge the
battery before it is discharged.
If you will not use the product for a long period of time, be sure to fully charge the battery
at least once every two weeks. Over discharge of the battery can affect the charging
performance.
