As with all batteries, the maximum capacity of this battery will decrease with time and usage. 2.
Battery 2.3 User's Guide Questions And Answers Q: A: I can feel a mild heat next to the battery pack during recharge. Is it normal? Q: A: My battery operation time is not as long as it should be. Why? Q: I did not use my spare battery for a few days. Even though it was fully recharged, there wasn't as much power left as a newly charged one. Why? A: The batteries will self-discharge (1% per day for Li-Ion) when they are not being recharged.
User's Guide Battery 2.4 Battery Maintenance To maintain the battery pack's maximum capacity, you should occasionally let the notebook deplete its battery power completely before recharging. To carry out a complete depletion of the battery, disconnect the AC adapter and let your notebook consume the remaining battery power. To speed up the depletion, use the HDD as much as possible, and the LCD should be set as bright as possible.
Battery 2.6 User's Guide Reducing Power Consumption Although your notebook (together with the operating system) is capable of power conservation, there are measures you can take to reduce the power consumption: • Use the AC power whenever possible. • Lower the intensity of the LCD backlight. A very bright screen translates to higher power usage. • Try to use the HDD to read and write files, instead of using the external USB FDD. Note: 2.
