Battery Pack

The battery pack is the internal power source for the computer. It is
rechargeable using the AC adapter.
The operating time of a fully charged battery pack depends on how you
are using the computer. When your applications often access peripherals,
you will experience a shorter operating time.
NOTE: Care and maintenance information for the battery is provided in the "Battery
Pack Guidelines" section in Chapter 7.

Charging the Battery Pack

when the battery's temperature gets above 60 °C (140 °F). If this happens, the
battery pack may be damaged. Please contact your dealer.
