If the AC power light flashes amber during charging, either the 
battery pack is malfunctioning, or it is not receiving correct 
input from the AC power supply. 

Disconnect the AC cable and remove the battery pack. See 

 for information on replacing 

the battery.

Your computer came with its battery already installed. Before 
using the battery to power the computer, you must charge the 
battery.

To charge the battery, leave the computer plugged into an AC 
power source for at least three hours with the computer 
turned off. After that, the battery will be completely charged 
and ready to power the computer.

Once the battery is charged for the first time, avoid leaving the 
computer plugged in and turned off for more than a few hours 
at a time. Continuing to charge a fully charged battery can 
damage the battery.

TECHNICAL NOTE: When your computer is using all of the 
power provided by the AC Adapter to run applications, 
features, and devices, the recharging of the battery cannot 
occur. Your computer's Power Saver utility can be used to 
select a power level setting that reduces the power required for 
system operation and will allow the battery to recharge.

NOTE
