To charge the battery, plug the computer into a live wall 
outlet. It takes several hours to charge the battery with the 
computer off. It takes much longer to charge the battery while 
the computer is on. 

TECHNICAL NOTE: When your computer is using all of the 
power provided by the AC Adapter to run applications, 
features, and devices, the recharging of the battery cannot 
occur. Your computer’s Power Saver utility can be used to 
select a power level setting that reduces the power required for 
system operation and will allow the battery to recharge.

The battery may not start charging immediately if:

❖

The battery is extremely hot or cold. 

To ensure that the battery charges to its full capacity, wait 
until it reaches room temperature (50 to 80 degrees 
Fahrenheit, 10 to 26 degrees Celsius).

❖

The battery is almost completely discharged. 

Leave the power connected, and the battery should begin 
charging after a few minutes.

HINT: Once the battery is fully charged, we recommend that 
you operate your computer on battery power until the battery 
discharges completely. Doing this extends battery life and 
helps ensure accurate monitoring of battery capacity.

Your computer has an internal real-time clock (RTC) battery. 
The RTC battery powers the System Time Clock and BIOS 
memory used to store your computer’s configuration settings.
