Fully discharging your battery will allow better accuracy of the 
battery meter.

To fully discharge your battery:

❖

Periodically, disconnect the computer from a power source and 
operate it on battery power until the battery fully discharges. 
Before doing so, follow the steps below:

Turn off the computer’s power.

Disconnect the AC adaptor and turn on the computer’s 
power. If it does not turn on, go to step 

Operate the computer on battery power for five minutes. If 
the battery has at least five minutes of operating time, 
continue operating until the battery is fully discharged. If 
the battery light flashes or there is some other warning to 
indicate a low battery, go to step 

Connect the AC adaptor to the computer and the 
power cord/cable to a power outlet. The DC-IN or AC 
power-light should glow green, and the battery light 
should glow amber to indicate that the battery 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 adaptor and power cord/cable.

Charge the battery until the battery light glows green. 

❖

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

Never attempt to dispose of a computer 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 computer to 
explode and/or release caustic liquid, both which may possibly 
cause serious injury.

Discard this computer in accordance with applicable laws and 
regulations.

Disposal of this product may be regulated due to environmental 
considerations. For disposal, reuse or recycling information, please
