Charge batteries in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) as reported by the battery. Charging is
intelligently controlled by the charger. To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the charger alternately enables
and disables battery charging to keep the battery at acceptable temperatures.
The ET5X’s amber charge LED shows the status of the battery charging in the ET5X. See Table 1-4 on page 1-10
for charging status indications.

100% in approximately 3.5 hours.
The 10” tablet main battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in approximately three hours and from fully depleted
