A battery pack inserted in the notebook charges whenever the
notebook is connected to external power through an AC adapter
or through an optional Expansion Base, Automobile Power
Adapter/Charger, or Auto/Air/AC Adapter.
A battery pack inserted in the notebook charges whether the
notebook is off or in use, but the battery pack charges faster while
the notebook is off. Charging might be delayed if a battery pack is
new, has been unused for 2 weeks or more, or is much warmer or
cooler than room temperature.
