Setting Up the Computer
Before you set up the computer for the first time, ensure that
■
The diskette drive is in the MultiBay.
■
The computer is not docked in a docking station.
Protecting a New Battery Pack
After it has been taken out of ship mode, the battery pack in the
computer begins to charge when the computer is connected to
external power.
IMPORTANT:
A new battery pack should be allowed to fully charge
before the computer is disconnected from external power or before
the battery pack is removed from the computer.
A new battery pack in a computer connected to external power
fully charges in approximately
■
3 hours when the computer is turned on and being used.
■
1.5 hours when the computer is plugged in and turned off.
For more information on the battery pack, refer to Chapter 5,
“Using Battery Packs.”
