Running the computer on battery power
The computer contains a removable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
high-capacity battery that provides power when you are away
from an AC outlet. You can recharge it many times.
To ensure that the battery maintains its maximum capacity,
operate the computer on battery power at least once a month
until the battery is fully discharged. Refer to Maximizing
battery life in this guide for procedures. If the computer is
continuously operated on AC power, either through an AC
adapter or a docking station (if applicable to your system), for
an extended period (more than a month) the battery may fail
to retain a charge. This may shorten the life of the battery, and
the battery light may not indicate a low-battery condition.
The computer also has an internal real-time-clock (RTC)
battery. The RTC battery powers the RTC memory that stores
your system configuration settings and the current time and
date information.
If the disc is spinning when you open the disc tray, wait for the disc
to stop before removing it.
Never pick up the computer by its display panel or by the back
(where the ports are located).
