Battery

The battery allows you to use your notebook computer while you are
on the road, or an electrical outlet is unavailable. Battery life varies
depending on the applications and the configuration you're using. To
increase battery life, let the battery discharge completely before re-
charging.

Battery Removed

We recommend leaving the battery inside the notebook at all times.
