Charging the main battery

Charging the main battery
Before using the battery to power the computer, you must charge
the battery.
To charge the battery, leave the computer plugged into an AC power
source with the computer turned off until the battery light glows
green. After that, the battery will be completely charged and ready
to power the computer.
NOTE

Using the computer for the first time

The computer is now ready for you to turn it on and begin using it.

Opening the display panel

1 Facing the front of the computer, locate the center of the
display panel.
2 Gently raise the panel.
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.
TECHNICAL NOTE: The recharging of the battery cannot occur when
your computer is using all of the power provided by the AC adaptor
to run applications, features, and devices. Your computer's Power
Options utility can be used to select a power level setting that
reduces the power required for system operation and will allow the
battery to recharge.
Battery life and charge time may vary depending on the applications,
power management settings, and features used.
