Sony Notebook Computer User Guide

To charge the battery pack

1 Connect the AC adapter to the computer.

2 Insert the battery pack.

The computer automatically charges the battery (the battery indicator light flashes in a double blink pattern as the battery charges). When the battery is 85% full, the battery indicator light turns off. This process takes approximately one to one and half hour. To charge the battery completely, continue charging for an additional hour.

A fully charged battery pack provides power for hours.

The time varies based on your system configuration and the software you use. See your Software guide, in "Battery Information ".
