charging your battery

An installed battery will automatically recharge whenever the notebook is
connected to an AC power source. To ensure that you always have plenty of
battery power, recharge your battery frequently.

initial charge

As mentioned in chapter 1, "getting started," to properly charge your battery
the first time, you must leave the AC adapter connected to the notebook until
the yellow battery status light goes off. Depending on your configuration, the
initial, full charge may take 2 to 3 hours.

subsequent charges

After your battery has been initially charged, subsequent charges may take less
time, depending on how depleted the battery is and whether you are using the
notebook while you are charging the battery.
