Charging the Battery Pack Properly
Your notebook computer features a powerful, rechargeable Li-Ion battery pack.
Normally, a fully charged battery delivers approx. 2 to 3 hours of battery operation
for your notebook. It is very important that you enable the Power Management
features under Windows XP for careful management of power consumption. The
endurance will vary depending on the different notebook configurations as well as
work habits. A very bright display, lots of hard disk access using the DVD drive as
well as an extensive use of the WLAN adapter will increase power consumption
and therefore reduce battery endurance.
1.
To charge the battery, connect the power adapter to the notebook and to a wall
outlet.
During the charging process, the battery indicator (LED) located next to the
status indicators (LEDs) will light up. If the notebook is turned off, an empty
battery will take approx. 3 hours to become fully charged. The charging time will
be longer if the notebook is turned on and being used. It is normal that the battery
becomes warm during the charging process.
2.
The battery will develop its full capacity after completing 20 charging and
discharging cycles without performing any quick charging.
3.
In order to maintain its full capacity, it is recommended that you fully discharge
the battery from time to time. To do so, disconnect the power adapter and keep
