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 ".
