Battery Care
The Li-Ion battery pack has no “Memory Effect” (officially called “Voltage Depressor”) but like all
rechargeable batteries, the number of charges is limited. Fully draining and charging the battery
once a day every day will last over a year but how long beyond that will depend on your environ-
ment temperature and humidity. Make sure that the battery is used in a temperature range between
50˚F and 85˚F, taking into account that the Notebook PC’s internal temperature is higher than the
outside. Any temperatures above or below this range will shorten the life of the battery. But in any
case, the battery’s usage time will eventually be too short to use and a new one must be purchased.
