Charging the battery

Before you can use the battery to power the computer, you must
charge it. Connect the computer to a live AC outlet using the AC
adapter and power cable. The battery light on the status panel
flashes green to show that the battery is charging.
Once the computer is connected to a power outlet, you can charge
the battery with the computer turned off or on. When the computer
is turned off, the battery charges in two to three hours.
When the computer is turned on, the battery charges in four to ten
hours provided the computer is not consuming full power. The
computer is consuming full power when several applications are
open simultaneously and are using all the computer's resources.
For more information on battery use, see
on battery power on page
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.
