The ac adapter is normally warm to the touch whenever it's plugged into an
ac outlet. The OmniBook is normally warm while it's charging, so don't
charge it in a briefcase or other confined space.
Hint
To get the longest battery operating time, allow the battery to charge fully—
until the battery symbol in the Status Panel fills to the top. Continued
charging maintains the full charge, and does no harm to the battery.
You can partially recharge the battery pack whenever it's convenient—it
