Please accept your Notebook PC as being correct. Photos and icons in this manual are used for artistic purposes only and do not show what is actually used in the product itself. Downloaded from LpManual.
3 Getting Started Power System Using AC Power The Notebook PC power is comprised of two parts, the power adapter and the battery power system. The power adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required by the Notebook PC. Your Notebook PC comes with 2 a universal AC-DC adapter. That means that you 3 may connect the power cord to any 100V-120V 1 as well as 220V-240V outlets without setting switches or using power converters.
Getting Started Using Battery Power 3 The Notebook PC is designed to work with a removable battery pack. The battery pack consists of a set of battery cells housed together. A fully charged pack will provide several hours of battery life, which can be further extended by using power management features through the BIOS setup. Additional battery packs are optional and can be purchased separately through a Notebook PC retailer.
3 Getting Started Battery Care The Notebook PC’s battery pack, like all rechargeable batteries, has a limit on the number times it can be recharged. The battery pack’s useful life will depend on your environment temperature, humidity, and how your Notebook PC is used. It is ideal that the battery be used in a temperature range between 10˚C and 35˚C (50˚F and 95˚F). You must also take into account that the Notebook PC’s internal temperature is higher than the outside temperature.
Getting Started Powering ON the Notebook PC 3 The Notebook PC’s power-ON message appears on the screen when you turn it ON. If necessary, you may adjust the brightness by using the hot keys.
