Power Management
Running the computer on battery power

The computer contains a removable lithium ion (Li-ion) battery 
pack that provides power when you are away from an AC outlet. 
This is the main battery. You can recharge it many times. 

In addition to the main battery, you may also have a second battery 
installed in the Slim SelectBay. If you travel and need to work for 
many hours without an AC power source, you may purchase a 
battery module for use in the computer’s Slim SelectBay, or carry 
additional charged battery packs with you.

The computer also has an internal real-time-clock (RTC) battery.

The RTC battery powers the RTC memory that stores your system 
configuration settings and the current time and date information. It 
maintains this information for up to a month while the computer is 
turned off.

To charge the main battery while it is in your computer, plug the 
computer into a live electrical outlet. The battery charges whether 
the computer is on or off. 

The main battery light (

) glows amber while the battery is being 

charged, and glows green when it is fully charged.

The battery may not start charging immediately under the 
following conditions:

❖

The battery is extremely hot or cold. To ensure that the battery 
charges to its full capacity, wait until it reaches room 
temperature.
