This section contains information on the notebook’s power system,
including the AC Adapter, the battery system, recharging the battery,
and tips for conserving battery power.

the DC power required by the computer.
The Battery Power System
Before using the computer on battery power for the first time, check the
battery status icon on the Windows Toolbar to make sure the battery is
fully charged.
See Battery Status later in this section for a description and explanation
of the Windows Battery icon.
Charging the battery takes about 2.5 hours to charge when the system is
in off state. If possible, always charge the battery completely.
If you use the battery so frequently that it
exceed more than 20 times by fully discharging/charging in a single
month alone, we recommend you to perform the “Battery Calibration”
process every 3 months to maintain the battery life.
