How can I maximize battery life?
To maximize battery life, do the following:
Use the battery until the charge is completely depleted
(until the battery and power LEDs flash in unison).
Recharge the battery completely before using (the
battery is fully charged when the AC Adapter is
plugged in and the battery LED is green).
For a new battery or a battery that you have not used
recently:
1. Use the battery until the charge is completely
depleted (until the battery and power LEDs flash
in unison).
2. Recharge completely before using (the battery is
fully charged when the AC Adapter is plugged in
