Power

Tips:

Whenever possible, use the AC adapter. The battery will come in handy when you travel or during a power failure. It is advisable to have an extra fully-charged battery pack available for backup.

If the computer is to be stored for more than two weeks, it is best to remove the battery pack. Battery power from a fully charged battery pack depletes in roughly a week with the computer in suspend-to-memory mode.

Warning! Do not expose the battery pack to

temperatures below 32ºF (0ºC) or above 140ºF

(60ºC).

Removing and Installing the Battery Pack

To remove the battery pack, follow these steps:

1.Turn off the computer, or connect the AC adapter to the computer.

2.Press the battery compartment cover latch and slide it toward the front of the computer.

3.Pull out the battery pack.
