Connect the AC adapter to the computer and connect 
the power cord/cable to a power outlet. The DC-IN or 
AC power-light should glow blue, and the battery 
light should glow amber to indicate that the battery 
pack is being charged. If the DC-IN or AC power-
light indicator does not glow, power is not being 
supplied. Check the connections for the AC adapter 
and power cord/cable.

Charge the battery pack until the battery light glows 
blue.

❖

If you have extra battery packs, rotate their use.

❖

If you will not be using the system for an extended 
period, more than one month, remove the battery pack.

❖

Disconnect the AC adapter when the battery is fully 
charged. Overcharging makes the battery hot and 
shortens its life.

❖

If you are not going to use the computer for more than 
eight hours, disconnect the AC adapter.

❖

Store spare battery packs in a cool dry place out of direct 
sunlight.

When a battery pack nears the end of its life, its ability to 
hold a charge will decrease. When the battery pack needs to 
be replaced, the main battery light flashes amber shortly after 
you have fully recharged the battery.

You must discard a battery if it becomes damaged.

Never attempt to dispose of a battery pack by burning or by throwing 
it into a fire, and never allow exposure to a heating apparatus (e.g., 
microwave oven). Heat can cause a battery pack to explode and 
possibly cause serious injury. 

Always dispose of used battery packs in compliance with all 
applicable laws and regulations. Put insulating tape, such as 
cellophane tape, on the electrode during transportation to avoid a 
possible short circuit, fire or electric shock. Failure to do so could 
possibly result in serious injury.
