Chapter 3: Getting Started

Using Battery Power

The Eee PC is designed to work with a removable battery pack. The
battery pack consists of a set of battery cells housed together. A fully
charged pack will provide several hours of battery life. Additional
battery packs are optional and can be purchased separately through
an Eee PC retailer.

Remember to fully charge the battery (8 hours or more) before
first use and whenever it is depleted to prolong battery life. The
battery reaches its maximum capacity after a few full charging
and discharging cycles.
