Battery pack - 61

• Frequent use; the more you use the battery, the faster it will reach the

end of its effective life. A standard computer battery has a life span of

about 300 charges.

Optimizing battery life

Optimizing battery life helps you get the most out of battery operation,

prolonging the charge/recharge cycle and improving recharging efficiency.

You are advised to follow the suggestions set out below:

• Use AC power whenever possible, reserving battery for mobile use.

• Remove accessories that are not being used (e.g. a USB disk drive), as

they can continue to draw power.

• Store your PC in a cool, dry place. The recommended temperature is

10° C (50° F) to 30° C (86° F). Higher temperatures cause the battery to

self-discharge faster.

• Excessive recharging decreases the battery life.

• Look after your AC adapter and battery.

Checking the battery level

The power meter indicates the current battery level. Rest the cursor over

the battery/power icon on the taskbar to see the battery's present charge

level.

Battery-low warning

When using battery power pay attention to the power meter.
