Additional Notes On Batteries

❑Keep the battery pack in the notebook while it is connected to AC power. The battery pack continues to charge while you are using the computer.

❑If your battery level falls to less than 10%, you should either attach the

AC adapter to recharge the battery or shut down your notebook and insert a fully-charged battery.

❑You can extend battery life by changing the power management modes in the PowerPanel utility. See “Using Power Saving Modes” .

❑The battery pack supplied with your notebook is a lithium-ion battery and can be recharged at any time. Charging a partially discharged battery does not affect battery life.

❑The battery indicator light is on while you use the battery pack as a power source. When battery life is nearly depleted, the battery indicator flashes.
