Keep away from the reach of children.  Do not use rusty or damaged batteries.  Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Check with your local solid waste officials for details about recycling options or for proper disposal in your area. Conserving Battery Power Efficient battery power is critical to maintain a normal operation. If the battery power is not managed well, the saved data and customized settings may be lost. To optimize battery life and avoid a sudden power loss, read the tips below:  Suspend system operation if the system will be idle for a while or shorten the suspend timer’s time period.  Turn off the system if you won’t be using it for a period of time.  Disable unnecessary settings or remove idle peripherals.

3-10Getting Started  Connect an AC adapter to the system whenever possible. Charging the Battery Pack The battery pack can be recharged while it is installed in the notebook.
