A fully charged pack will provide approximately 1.5 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.
