Important
If the battery is not fully charged before you use 
your notebook on battery power for the first time, 
the battery life may be much shorter than you 
expect. If the battery life seems short even after 
being charged for three hours, the battery may 
need to be recalibrated. For information on 
recalibrating the battery, see 
.
Caution
Make sure that you use the AC adapter that came 
with your notebook or one of the same type 
purchased from Gateway.
Replace the power cord if it becomes damaged. 
The replacement cord must be of the same type 
and voltage rating as the original cord or your 
notebook may be damaged.
