The battery is one of the most important components of your notebook. When not plugged into a
mains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the life of the battery by
caring for the battery properly. The average battery life is around 500 charge/discharge cycles.
You can extend the battery life by taking advantage of the available energy saving functions.
You can increase the time for which your notebook will operate under battery
power. We therefore recommend that while operating under battery power, you
