Power Saving Modes

This section contains information on the Notebook’s power system, including the AC
Adapter, the battery system, recharging the battery, and tips for conserving battery power.

The power system is comprised of two parts, the AC Adapter and the battery system. The
AC Adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the
computer.

The Battery Power System

A fully charged pack will provide approximately 2 hours of battery life depending on your
system configuration application it runs.

Before using the computer on battery power for the first time, check the battery status
icon on the Windows Toolbar to make sure the battery is fully charged.

See Battery Status later in this section for a description and explanation of the Windows
Battery icon. Charging the battery takes about 3 hours to charge when the system is in off
state. If possible, always charge the battery completely.

Removing the Battery Pack

To remove the battery pack from its compartment, please refer to Chapter Two, Inserting
and Removing the Battery Pack
