✍If the port replicator is attached to your notebook, do not attempt to insert or remove the battery pack. Lifting and turning the notebook with a port replicator attached could cause a temporary loss of power.

To charge the battery pack

1Connect the AC adapter to the notebook.

2Insert the battery pack.

The notebook automatically charges the battery. The battery indicator flashes in a double-blink pattern as the battery charges.

3When the battery is 85 percent full, the battery indicator turns off. This process takes 3 hours when your notebook is using AC power.

✍To charge the battery completely, continue charging for an additional hour. See “Displaying Battery Information” in the online VAIO® Notebook User Guide for more information.
