1.16 Using the Battery Pack

W348M notebook computer is designed to operate with one of the
following power sources:
AC power (using the AC adapter connected to an electrical
outlet)
Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack
You should use the AC adapter whenever possible; use the battery
pack only when AC power is unavailable. The rechargeable Li-Ion
battery pack allows you to operate your notebook computer without
an external power source. When you use the AC adapter to connect
your notebook to a power outlet, the internal battery will begin to
recharge. While the battery is charging, the Battery Charge icon on
the indicator panel will be on. Once the battery is fully charged, the
Battery Charge icon will turn off. Quick charging time is 2.5 hours
for the Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery when the computer is turned off,
while the normal battery charging time is 3.5 hours.
Operating a fax modem, video, or audio equipment can increase
the use of your computer's power.
Decreasing monitor brightness can also save power.
When the battery is not fully charged, allow your battery to be
charged completely before using it (i.e., before disconnecting
AC power). Calibrating the battery before use is also highly
recommended.
Li-Ion Battery is vulnerable; do not charge it with other power
adapter, otherwise fire or explosion may occur.
