Maximizing battery life
To maximize the life of your battery pack:
At least once a month, disconnect the computer from a 
power source and operate it on battery power until the 
battery pack 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 
3
Operate the computer on battery power for five 
minutes. If the battery pack has at least five minutes 
of operating time, continue operating until the battery 
pack is fully discharged. If the battery light flashes or 
there is some other warning to indicate a low battery, 
go to step 
.
4
Connect the AC adapter to the computer and the 
power cord 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 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.
5
Charge the battery pack until the battery light glows 
green. 
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.
