www.dell.com | support.dell.com
Charging the Battery
The high-capacity battery pack can be charged while detached from the
computer, using either the 70-W AC adapter that ships with the battery
pack or the 50-W AC adapter that ships with the computer.
1 Plug the AC adapter’s permanently attached cable into the AC
adapter connector on the battery pack.
2 Plug the AC adapter power cable into the other end of the AC adapter.
3 Plug the other end of the AC adapter power cable into an electrical
outlet.
The battery should fully charge in approximately 2.5 hours using the 70-W
AC adapter; it should charge in about 3.5 hours using the 50-W AC adapter.
The high-capacity battery pack will also charge when attached to the
computer while the computer is connected to an electrical outlet. The
computer checks the battery pack charge and temperature; if necessary, the
computer’s AC adapter charges the battery and maintains the battery
charge. Charging in this manner takes longer than if the battery pack were
connected to AC power through the AC adapter.
