There is no memory effect on the Lithium ion battery therefore you do not need to discharge the battery
completely before recharging. The charge times will be significantly longer if your notebook is in use

mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the battery. (See Power Management on page 53 for more
information on Sleep mode and shutdown procedure)
