Acer 710 사용자 설명서

This section helps you get the most out of battery operation.  
Optimizing battery life prolongs the charge/recharge cycle 
and improves recharge efficiency.  Follow these suggestions 
to optimize and maximize battery power:

❑

Purchase an extra battery pack.

❑

Use the PhDISK utility to reserve hard disk space for the 
Hibernation function.  See “PhDISK” on page 73.

❑

Use the AC adapter whenever possible so that the 
battery is reserved for on-the-go computing.

❑

Keep the battery pack in the computer powered by the 
AC adapter.  The constant trickle charge maintains the 
battery level to eliminate the battery self-discharge 
effect.  The charge-in-use function also charges the 
battery pack.

❑

Disable the parallel and serial ports if no devices are 
connected to these ports.  You can do this through the 
Setup Utility.  See “Advanced” on page 89.

❑

Eject the PC card from the card slot when not in use, 
since the PC card draws extra power.

❑

Store the battery pack in a cool, dry place.  The 
recommended storage temperature for battery packs 
ranges from 10 to 30 degrees C.  The higher the storage 
temperature, the faster the battery pack self-discharges. 

❑

The batteries can be recharged about 300 times when 
used as directed.  Excessive recharging decreases 
battery life.

❑

Take care of your battery pack and AC adapter.  See 
“Care and Maintenance” on page xix of the preface.
