Using the Battery Pack
The Netbook is designed to operate with one of the following power sources:
•
With AC power using the AC adapter connected to an electrical outlet.
•
With a Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack.
You should use the AC adapter whenever it is possible, relying on the battery
pack only when AC power is unavailable.
When you use your Netbook the first time, please operate it without an
external power source. You can connect the AC power adapter to immediately
recharge the battery, when the battery pack is used up and the Netbook is turn
off. (Before you use your Netbook, recharge the battery pack first. The
rechargeable Li-Ion battery pack allows you to operate the Netbook without an
external power source. When you connect the AC power adapter, the battery
immediately starts to recharge. For maximum battery performance, fully
discharge the battery before recharging it the first time. To do so, unplug the
AC adapter, turn off power management features (through Setup and
Windows), and turn on the system. Once the battery is fully discharged, plug in
the AC adapter and recharge the battery.)
If you do not discharge the battery completely, it fails to accept a full recharge.
Li-Ion battery is vulnerable, do not charge it with other power adapter, or it
may cause fire or explosion.
