Page 3: Battery Maintenance Guidance
Battery Maintenance guidance Before you use your Notebook on the road, you will have to charge the battery pack. The battery pack begins to charge as soon as the Notebook is connected to external power using the power adapter. Fully charge the battery pack before using it for the first time. A new battery pack must completely charge before the Notebook is disconnected from external power. It takes a few hours to fully charge the battery when the Notebook is turned OFF. Please note the battery stops charging if the temperature is too high or the battery voltage is too high. NOTE: Do not leave the battery pack discharged. The battery pack will discharge over time. If not using a battery pack, it must continued to be charged every three month to extend recovery capacity or else it may fail to charge in the future.Lithium-Ion rechargeable batteries require routine maintenance and care in their use and handling. Read through below instruction and your Notebook will achieve the maximum battery life span. -

charging : The Lithium-Ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter. To recharge the battery, make sure the battery is installed and the Notebook is connected to the AC adapter. The charge times will be significantly longer if your Notebook is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more quickly, put your computer into Suspend mode or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. Please always follow the charging instructions provided with your Notebook. * If you happen to leave your battery pack to go through an extended period of self-discharge, say more than three months, the battery voltage level will become too low and needs to be Pre-Charged (to bring the battery voltage level high enough) before it automatically resumes its normal Fast Charge. -
