Important Notes on Using the Battery Pack

Recharging and Discharging
Recharging will not start if the battery's temperature is below 0 C
(32 F) or above 40 C (104 F). Also, during recharging, the
recharging will stop if the battery's temperature gets above 60 C
(140 F). To avoid problems caused by temperatures, make sure
the battery is not too hot before you begin to recharge the battery.
During recharging, do not disconnect the AC adapter before the
battery has been fully charged; otherwise you will get a
prematurely charged battery.
After the notebook has been fully recharged, do not immediately
disconnect and reconnect the AC adapter to charge it again. Doing
so may damage the battery.
Do not leave the battery completely discharged for too long as this
may affect the battery's performance.
