Installing and Removing the Battery Pack
Your Eee PC may not have its battery pack installed. If not, use the 
following procedures to install the battery pack.
To install the battery pack:
To remove the battery pack:
• Only use battery packs and power adapters supplied with this
Eee PC or specifically approved by the manufacturer or retailer 
for use with this model or else damage may occur to the Eee PC.
• Never attempt to remove the battery pack while the Eee PC is
turned ON, as this may result in the loss of working data.
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 provides your Eee PC a few hours of working 
power, but the actual figure varies depending on your general work 
habits, the CPU, system memory size, and the size of the display 
panel. 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.
