Prolonging the Battery’s Life and Usage Cycles
There are ways you can prolong the use of battery.
Use the AC adapter wherever AC wall outlet is available. This
will ensure uninterrupted computing.
Store the battery pack in room temperature. Higher
temperature tends to deplete the battery’s power faster.
Make good use of the power management function. Save To
Disk (Hibernate) saves the most energy by storing current
system contents in a hard disk space reserved for this
function.
The life expectancy of the battery is approximately 300
recharges.
See the notices section in the beginning of the user manual
on how to care for the battery pack.
Use Function+F7 key to decrease the brightness of the
screen.

you may need to do a battery calibration at a 3-month interval.

Fully charge the battery.
