Plug the AC power cord into an outlet, and then connect the AC power cord to the AC/DC adapter.

Battery
The battery allows you to use your computer while you are on the road or when an electrical outlet is unavailable.
Battery life varies depending on the applications and the configuration you're using. To increase battery life,
let the battery discharge completely before recharging (see
“How do I completely discharge the battery?”
