NOTE:
For information about the Dell warranty for your computer, see the Product Information Guide or separate
paper warranty document that shipped with your computer.
For optimal computer performance and to help preserve BIOS settings, operate your Dell™ portable
computer with the main battery installed at all times. One battery is supplied as standard equipment in
the battery bay.
NOTE:
Because the battery may not be fully charged, use the AC adapter to connect your new computer to an
electrical outlet the first time you use the computer. For best results, operate the computer with the AC adapter
until the battery is fully charged. To view battery charge status, check the Power Meter in Power Options (see
"Accessing Power Options Properties" in your
User’s Guide .)
Battery operating time varies depending on operating conditions. You can install an optional second
battery in the media bay to significantly increase operating time.
