Backup battery replacement is performed by LXE.
Note: An uninterrupted external power source (wall AC adapters) transfers power to the
computer’s internal charging circuitry which, in turn, recharges the main battery and
backup battery. Frequent connection to an external power source, if feasible, is
recommended to maintain backup battery charge status as the backup battery cannot be
recharged by a dead or missing main battery.
Battery Hotswapping
Important: When the backup battery power is Low or Very Low ( | Settings | Control Panel |
Power | Battery tab) connect the AC adapter to the MX7 before
replacing the main battery pack.
Replace the main battery pack after first pressing the Power key and placing the MX7 in Suspend
Mode. LXE recommends any work in progress be saved prior to replacing the main battery pack.
Simply replace the discharged main battery with a fully-charged main battery. A fully charged
backup battery will retain data during a main battery hotswap for 5 minutes.
Warning: Never replace the main battery in a hazardous location.
