Charging The Rtc Battery - Toshiba 2000 User Manual

The main battery light:
❖
Glows amber while the main battery is being charged.
❖
Glows green when the main battery is fully charged.
The main battery may not start charging immediately if:
❖
The main battery is extremely hot or cold. To ensure that
the main battery charges to its full capacity, wait until it
reaches room temperature.
❖
The main battery is almost completely discharged. Leave
the power connected and the main battery should begin
charging after a few minutes.
HINT: Once the main battery is fully charged, we recommend you
operate your computer on battery power until the main battery
discharges completely. Doing this extends the life of the main
battery and helps ensure accurate monitoring of battery capacity.

Charging the RTC battery

The RTC battery provides power for the internal real-time
clock and calendar. During normal use, the main battery
keeps the RTC battery adequately charged. Occasionally, the
RTC battery may lose its charge completely, especially if you
have had the computer turned off for a long time.
