battery is fully charged, it must discharge to 94% or lower before it will be allowed to recharge again.

use, full battery capacity may not be available until you discharge to as low as 20% and recharge
completely. For more information, refer to the power section of the Vantage app.

function. To use the function, ensure that Always On USB and Charge in Battery Mode are enabled in UEFI
BIOS of your computers, so that the function works even when the computers are off or in hibernation mode.
