To get the most from your battery

The following are some further suggestions for the best management of your OmniBook batteries.

∙Do not leave batteries unused for long periods of time. If you have more than one, rotate them.

∙If you normally use ac power, make a practice of at least once a week using the battery as your power source.

∙Unplug the ac adapter when the computer is not in use.

∙To preserve the life of your battery, be sure to charge the battery regularly.

∙For long-term storage, the battery must be charged at 20-50% to prevent capacity loss and to avoid deterioration of battery performance. Storage in a 100% charged condition can cause increased deterioration of discharge capacity—even after recharging—compared to storage in a 20-50% charged condition.
