Be aware that the charging time when the computer is on is affected
by ambient temperature, the temperature of the computer and how
you are using the computer. If you make heavy use of external
devices for example, the battery might scarcely charge at all during
operation.
Note that charging time will vary depending on the ambient
temperature, the computer's internal temperature, and how the
computer is being used. For example, whether the display is set to
shut off automatically when idle, whether you make heavy use of
external devices powered by the computer, or if the computer's
internal storage drive is being accessed frequently by an application.
The battery might not be charged depending on how the computer is
being used, and the charge of battery decreases and battery might not
be fully charged sometimes.
If AC adaptor is connected via USB Type-C™ adapter, battery
charging time might become longer.
Charging notice
The battery pack might not begin charging immediately under the following
conditions:
The battery pack is extremely hot or cold (if the battery pack is
extremely hot, it might not charge at all). To ensure the battery pack
charges to its full capacity, charge it at room temperature of between
5°C to 35°C (41–95°F).
The battery pack is nearly completely discharged. In this instance,
leave the AC adaptor connected for a few minutes and the battery
pack should begin charging.
The
DC IN/Battery
and/or
DC IN/Second Battery
indicator might show a
rapid decrease in battery operating time when you try to charge a battery
pack under the following conditions:
The battery pack has not been used for a long time.
The battery pack has completely discharged and been left in the
computer for a long time.
In such cases, do the following:
1.
Fully discharge the battery pack with power on until the system
automatically turns itself off.
2.
Connect the AC adaptor to one of the USB Type-C™ ports on your
computer, and to a wall outlet that is supplying power.
3.
Charge the battery pack until the
DC IN/Battery
and/or
DC IN/
Second Battery
indicator glows white.
Repeat these steps two or three times until the battery pack recovers
normal capacity.
