Managing Battery Power Conserving Battery Power To get the most from your battery The following are some further suggestions for the best management of your OmniBook batteries. • Do not leave batteries unused for long periods of time. If you have more than one, rotate them. • If you normally use ac power, make a practice of at least once a week using the battery as your power source. • Unplug the ac adapter when the computer is not in use. • To preserve the life of your battery, be sure to charge the battery regularly. • For long-term storage, the battery must be charged at 20-50% to save capacity loss by self-discharge and to avoid deterioration of battery performance. Storage in a 100% charged condition can cause higher self-discharge and deterioration of discharge capacity-even after recharging-compared to storage in a 20-50% charged condition. 3-12
