2.1 Battery Pack
Your notebook is equipped with a high energy rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery
pack. In general, a fully charged battery pack can support around 2.0~3.0 hours of
operation, with Windows' Power Management option enabled. However, difference in
configuration (CPU, HDD, Memory etc.) and system utilization (especially I/O activities)
can affect the operation time greatly.
2.2 Recharging the Battery Pack
Your notebook supports both on-line and off-line recharge. Follow the procedure below to
recharge battery:
•
Make sure the battery pack is installed in the notebook.
•
Connect the AC adapter to the notebook and to an electrical outlet.
When a battery pack is being recharged, its battery LED (located near the Five Status
LEDs) would be lit up. For details on the LEDs, please refer to Chapter 1.3. When the
notebook is OFF, a depleted Li-Ion battery will take three hours to recharge.
