CAUTION: After the computer has been fully recharged, do not
immediately disconnect and reconnect the AC adapter to charge
it again. Doing so may damage the battery.
Initializing the Battery Pack
You need to initialize a new battery pack before using it for the first time or when
the actual operating time of a battery pack is much less than expected. Initializing
is the process of fully charging, discharging, and then charging. It can take several
hours.
A software tool called “Gauge Reset” is provided for the purpose. Use the G-Manager
program and select the Battery tab to find the tool.
Checking the Battery Level
NOTE: Any battery level indication is an estimated result. The
actual operating time can be different from the estimated time,
depending on how you are using the computer.
The operating time of a fully charged battery pack depends on how you are using
the computer. When your applications often access peripherals, you will experience
a shorter operating time.
The two battery packs are discharged in parallel.
By Operating System
You can check the approximate battery level using the battery meter function of the
operating system. To read the battery level in Windows, click the
battery icon on the
taskbar.
By Gas Gauge
On the exterior side of the battery pack is a gas gauge for displaying the estimated
battery charge. When the battery pack is not installed in the computer and you want
to know the battery charge, you can press the push-button to see the number of
LEDs that light up. Each LED represents 20% charge.
