External power can be supplied through the following: ■ AC adapter ■ Optional AC adapter ■ Optional docking device ■ Optional automobile or aircraft adapter ✎ Optional aircraft adapters can run the notebook, but they cannot charge a battery pack. Charging a New Battery Pack Fully charge the battery pack while the notebook is connected to external power through the AC adapter. A new battery pack that has been partially but not fully charged can run the notebook, but the battery charge indicators may be inaccurate. Charging an In-Use Battery Pack To prolong battery life and increase the accuracy of battery charge indicators: ■ Allow a battery pack to discharge to 10 percent of a full charge through normal use before charging it. ■ When you charge a battery pack, charge it fully.
