Running the computer on battery power

Maximizing battery life
To maximize the life of your battery:
At least once a month, 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:
1
Turn off the computer’s power.
2
Disconnect the AC adapter and turn on the 
computer’s power. If it does not turn on, go to step 4.
3
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 4.
4
Connect the AC adapter to the computer and the 
power cable to a power outlet. The DC-IN (if 
applicable to your system) 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 
to the AC adapter and power cable.
5
Charge the battery until the battery light glows green.
If you have extra batteries, rotate their use.
If you will not be using the system for an extended period 
(more than one month) remove the battery.
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.
