Preserving Battery-Pack Life

To preserve the life of the battery pack:

Do not charge it until all of its power is used.

Once you have started charging the battery pack, do not use it

until it is fully charged.

Turn off the computer whenever it is not in use.

Warning:

When you use the NiMH battery pack, make sure the battery pack

power is completely used before you recharge it. Recharging a

battery pack that is not completely discharged can shorten battery life.

When you use the NiMH battery pack, discharge the battery

pack occasionally by using the Fuel-Gauge program.
