Getting Started Using the main battery 53 Using the main battery To charge the main battery, plug the computer into a live wall outlet. It takes several hours to charge the main battery with the computer off. It takes much longer to charge the main battery while the computer is on. For more information on battery use, see "Running the computer on battery power" on page 110. Once the battery is charged for the first time, avoid leaving the computer plugged in and turned off for more than a few hours at a time. Continuing to charge a fully charged battery can damage the battery. TECHNICAL NOTE: When your computer is using all of the power provided by the AC Adapter to run applications, features, and devices, the recharging of the battery cannot occur. Your computer's Power Saver utility can be used to select a power level setting that reduces the power required for system operation and allows the battery to recharge. TECHNICAL NOTE: The RTC battery does not charge while the computer is turned off, even when AC power is attached. The RTC battery charges when the computer is powered on. NOTE Battery life and charge time may vary depending on the applications, power management settings, and features used.
