Battery Pack; Battery Characteristics; Charging The Battery - Acer Aspire E1-532P User Manual

The computer uses a Lithium battery that gives you long use between
charges.

Battery characteristics

The battery is recharged whenever you connect the computer to the
AC adapter. Your computer supports charge-in-use, enabling you to
recharge the battery while you continue to operate the computer.
However, recharging with the computer turned off significantly
reduces charge time.
The battery will come in handy when you travel or during a power
failure. It is advisable to have an extra fully charged battery available
as backup. Contact your dealer for details on ordering a spare battery.

Charging the battery

To charge the battery, first make sure that it is correctly installed in the
battery bay. Plug the AC adapter into the computer, and connect to a
mains power outlet. You can continue to operate your computer on
AC power while your battery is charging. However, charging the
battery with the computer turned off significantly reduces charge time.
Note
You are advised to charge the battery before retiring for the day. Charging
the battery overnight before traveling enables you to start the next day with a
fully charged battery.
Conditioning a new battery pack
Before you use a battery pack for the first time, there is a conditioning
process that you should follow:
1. Insert the new battery without turning the computer on.
2. Connect the AC adapter and fully charge the battery.
3. Disconnect the AC adapter.
4. Turn on the computer and operate using battery power.
5. Deplete the battery until the battery-low warning appears.
