Do this to Save Battery Power:
Do one of the following:
•
Connect the computer to a charging accessory.
•
Replace the Battery
Make sure that the low battery status icon is not on the screen and that the
battery status LED is not on. Press and release the Power button to put the
computer to sleep (screen timeout).
•
If you are storing the computer for a few days (e.g., over the weekend),
install a fully charged battery or connect the computer to a power
source.
•
If you are storing the computer for a longer period of time, fully
charge the battery. When the battery is done charging, remove the
battery from the computer and store the battery and the computer
separately in a cool location.
•
If you store the battery for several months, recharge the battery
periodically to keep it at peak performance.
Batteries self-discharge slowly over time, even when they are not installed
in the computer. At a minimum, check stored batteries every three months
for their charge state. Recharge as needed.
