Charging the main battery

TECHNICAL NOTE: The battery does not charge while the
computer is consuming full power.
CAUTION: Once the battery is charged for the first time, avoid
leaving the computer plugged in and turned off for more than a few
hours at a time. Continuing to charge a fully charged battery can
damage the battery.
NOTE: Battery life and charge time may vary depending on the
