4 Connect the AC adapter to the computer and the
power cord to a power outlet. The DC-IN or AC
power light should glow green, and the main battery
light should glow amber to indicate that the battery
pack is being charged. If the DC-IN or AC power-
light indicator does not glow, power is not being
supplied. Check the connections for the AC adapter
and power cord.
5 Charge the battery pack until the main battery light
glows green.
If you have extra battery packs, rotate their use.
If you will not be using the system for an extended
period, more than one month, remove the battery pack.
Disconnect the AC adapter when the battery is fully
charged. Overcharging makes the battery hot and
shortens life.
If you are not going to use the computer for more than
eight hours, disconnect the AC adapter.
Store spare battery packs in a cool dry place out of direct
sunlight.
