About 4~10 hours max.

 

 

 

 

NOTE:￿ The￿ time￿ required￿ for￿ normal￿ charge￿ depends￿ on￿ the￿ power￿ consumption￿ by￿ the￿ system.￿ ￿ Using￿ the￿ fluorescent￿ lamp￿ and￿ frequently￿ accessing￿ the￿ disk￿ consume￿ much￿ power￿and￿lengthen￿the￿charge￿time.￿

￿

Any￿of￿the￿following￿cases￿stops￿battery￿charge:￿

1.￿ The￿battery￿becomes￿fully￿charged.￿

2.￿ The￿AC￿adapter￿or￿battery￿pack￿is￿removed.￿

3.￿ The￿battery￿or￿AC￿adapter￿voltage￿is￿abnormal.￿

￿￿ Detection￿of￿Full￿Charge￿

A￿ full￿ charge￿ is￿ detected￿ only￿ when￿ the￿ battery￿ is￿ being￿ charged￿ by￿ quick￿ or￿ normal￿ charge.￿￿A￿full￿charge￿is￿detected￿when￿either￿of￿the￿following￿conditions￿is￿met:￿

1.￿ The￿current￿in￿the￿battery￿charging￿circuit￿drops￿below￿the￿predetermined￿ value.￿

2.￿ The￿charging￿time￿exceeds￿the￿fixed￿limit.￿
