Avoid constant body contact with specific hot sections

When the computer is operating, it should be placed on a hard and flat surface with its bottom area not in contact with user's bare skin. Under normal operating conditions, the temperature of the bottom surface will remain within an acceptable range as defined in IEC 62368-1, but such temperatures can still be high enough to cause discomfort or harm to the user if directly touched for over 10 seconds at a time. As such, it is recommended that users avoid prolonged direct contact with the bottom of the computer.

Use the information in this section to achieve the best balance between performance and power efficiency.

Check the battery status

The battery status icon or is in the Windows notification area. You can check the battery status, view the current power plan, and access battery settings quickly.
Click the battery status icon to display the percentage of battery power remaining and change the power mode. A warning message is displayed when the battery is low.

Charge the battery

When the remaining battery power is low, charge your battery by connecting your computer to ac power.
The battery is fully charged in about two to four hours. The actual charging time depends on the battery capacity, the physical environment, and whether you are using the computer.
Battery charging is also affected by its temperature. The recommended temperature range for charging the battery is between 10°C (50°F) and 35°C (95°F).
Note:
You can check the battery temperature in Lenovo Vantage or Lenovo PC Manager.
To maximize the life of the battery, once the battery is fully charged, it must discharge to 94% or lower before it will be allowed to recharge again.

Using a Power Delivery compliant USB Type-C charger with the computer

The USB Type-C connector on the rear of the computer conforms to USB Power Delivery Specification. If you did not carry the included ac power adapter with your computer, you have the option of using a qualified USB Type-C charger (purchased separately) that is also Power Delivery compliant to charge the computer in sleep or powered-off state. Lenovo branded USB Type-C chargers with the following listed maximum ratings are tested to work with the computer. Chargers of other brands with the same ratings should also work but are not thoroughly tested.

  • 20 V, 3.25 A
  • 20 V, 4.75 A
  • 20 V, 5 A
  • 20 V, 6.75 A

The rear USB Type-C connector is not designed as the primary power input connector. When the computer is operating, the power supplied by the USB Type-C charger may be insufficient. As a result, the computer may not operate at its full capacity and the battery charging may stop or is very slow. Use the included ac power adapter whenever possible.

When purchasing third-party USB Type-C chargers for use with the computer, choose a product that is safety approved or certified. A disqualified charger may cause damage to your computer or pose an electrical hazard. In many countries and regions, manufacturers or importers of electric chargers can submit their products to a certification authority or approved and recognized testing laboratories. Such a product usually carries a mark if it was tested to pass relevant quality and safety standards. For some countries and regions, this certification process is even mandatory. If you live in mainland China, choose a charger with the "CCC" mark; for users in many European countries, choose one with the "CE" mark; for users in the United States and Canada, choose a Listed charger that carries a mark by one of the Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories. (For example, the "UL Listed"mark). For people living in other countries and regions, consult a qualified electrical engineer for how to select a safety approved electric charger.

A power plan

A power plan is a collection of power-saving settings made available by an operating system. With a power plan, you can set idle time-outs for different hardware components to enter a low-power state. The default power plan and some of its idle time-out settings are listed below for computer models pre-installed with Windows.
The listed settings are active when the computer is connected to an electrical outlet. If your computer include a built-in battery pack, a different collection of time-out settings is set to take effect when the computer is operating on battery power.
