Charging the battery

When the power in the battery pack becomes low, the Battery indicator

flashes green fast indicating that only a few minutes of battery power

remain. If you continue to use the computer while the Battery indicator

flashes, the computer enables hibernation mode (so you don’t lose data)

and automatically turns off.

You must recharge a battery pack when it becomes discharged.

Procedures

To recharge a battery pack while it is installed in the computer, connect the

AC adaptor to the DC IN socket and plug the other end into a working

outlet.

power and disconnecting the AC adaptor. Never remove the battery

pack while the computer is in Sleep Mode. Data could be lost.
