RECHARGING THE BATTERY
The Lithium-Ion battery is recharged internally using the AC adapter. To recharge the battery,
make sure the computer is connected to the AC.
There is no “memory effect” in Lithium-Ion batteries; therefore you do not need to discharge
the battery completely before recharging. The charge times will be significantly longer if your
notebook PC is in use while the battery is charging. If you want to charge the battery more
quickly, put your computer into Suspend mode, or turn it off while the adapter is charging the
battery.
Low Battery State
When the battery charge is low, a notification message appears. If you do not respond to the
low battery message, the battery continues to discharge until it is too low to operate. When this
happens, your notebook PC goes into Suspend mode. There is no guarantee your data will be
saved once the notebook reaches this point.
CAUTION
To protect your computer from damage, use only the power adapter that came
with it because each power adapter has its own power output rating.
Once your computer goes into Suspend mode as a result of a dead battery you will be unable
to resume operation until you provide a source of power either from an adapter, or a charged
battery. Once you have provided power, you can press the
Suspend/Power On button to resume
operation. In Suspend mode, your data is maintained for some time, but if a power source is
not provided promptly, the power indicator stops flashing and the goes out, in which case you
have lost the data that was not saved. Once you provide power, you can continue to use your
computer while an adapter charges the battery.
CAUTION
If the battery with an incorrect type is used, it may explode. Dispose of used
batteries in accordance with the instructions.
Standard Charge
Unless otherwise specified, “Standard Charge” shall consist of charging at a 0.5C constant
current. The cell shall then be charged at constant voltage of 4.2V while tapering the charge
current. Charging shall be terminated when the charging current has tapered to 50mA. For
testing purposes, charging shall be performed at 25ºC ±2ºC.
