Battery pack

The computer uses a battery pack that gives you long use between charges.

Battery pack characteristics

The battery pack has the following characteristics:

•Employs current battery technology standards.

•Delivers a battery-low warning.

The battery is recharged whenever you connect the computer to the AC adapter. Your computer supports charge-in-use, enabling you to recharge the battery while you continue to operate the computer. However, recharging with the computer turned off results in a significantly faster charge time.

1Connect the AC adapter and fully charge the battery.

2Disconnect the AC adapter.

3Turn on the computer and operate using battery power.

4Fully deplete the battery until the battery-low warning appears.
