Keep the battery pack in the computer while it is directly connected to AC power. The
battery pack continues to charge while you are using the computer.
If your battery level falls to less than 10%, you should either attach the AC adapter to
recharge the battery or shut down your computer and insert a fully charged battery.
You can extend battery life by changing the power management modes in the PowerPanel
utility. See “Using Power Saving Modes” on page 31.
The battery pack supplied with your computer is a lithium ion battery and can be recharged
at any time. Charging a partially discharged battery does not affect battery life.
The battery indicator light is on while you use the battery pack as a power source.
When battery life is nearly depleted, the battery indicator starts flashing.
✍
You may lose data if you remove the battery pack while the computer is on and not
connected to the AC adapter or if you remove the battery while the computer is in System
Suspend mode.
