6.3.4. Charging the Battery
The battery is charged using the mains adapter. When the mains adapter is con-
nected and switched on, the battery charges automatically regardless of whether or
not the Notebook is switched on or not. A complete charge takes a few hours with
the Notebook switched off. With the Notebook switched on, the charging process
takes significantly longer.
PLEASE NOTE!
The charging process is interrupted if the battery voltage or temperature
gets too high.
