2.12.1 Battery PackBattery Pack
The computer uses a battery pack that gives you
long use between charges.
Note: When using a battery pack for the first time,
fully recharge the battery, then disconnect the
adapter to use up the battery before recharging
again. You only need to do this once with a new
battery or with a battery that’s been stored
without being used for a long time.
If the computer is to be stored for more than two
weeks, we suggest that you remove the battery
pack. Battery power (from a fully charged battery
pack) depletes in roughly ten hours with the
computer in standby mode. When power is off,
battery power depletes in one month.
