We charge a fee for removing or replacing the battery.

If you use apps that demand high performance, battery charging time may be increased.

Using AC Adapter / Power Cable (USB Type)

The AC adapter can be used from 100 V to 240 V.

Connect a power cable (USB type) to an AC adapter, and connect the AC adapter to a power outlet.
Connect the other side of the power cable (USB type) to a micro USB / charging port.
Turn the power on by pressing and holding the power button on the left side of the product for more than 2 seconds.

Tip:

Caution:

Do not leave a liquid container on the PC.

Warning:

Please use an AC adapter certified by LG Electronics Inc.

When you use an AC adapter, follow the below directions.

60 °C or more high-humidity spaces, for example, inside cars or saunas, should be avoided when you use or store it.
Do not disassemble or modify the AC adapter.
Do not twist the AC adapter plug.
When you connect the AC adapter, do not forcefully push the plug.

Connect a power cable (USB type) to an AC adapter, and connect the AC adapter to a power outlet.
Connect the other side of the power cable (USB type) to a micro USB / charging port.
Check the battery state.

Tip:
The power lamp turns on while the battery is being charged. For more information on the power lamp, refer to the [Operation Status Lamps] section.

Caution:

Use batteries certified and acknowledged by LG Electronics Inc.

Warning:

The battery may explode or cause a fire due to excessive heat. For a safe and efficient use of battery, follow the directions below.

Do not short-circuit the battery.
Keep the battery out of reach of children.
A visible swelling of the battery pack indicates a possible danger. When this occurs, contact your local vendor or service center immediately.
Use only a certified and designated recharger.
Keep the battery pack away from heat. (Never put it in a microwave.)
Do not leave the product inside a car under the summer heat.
Do not leave or use the product at a hot and humid place like a sauna.
Do not place or use the product on a blanket, heating blanket, etc.
Do not leave the product turned on inside a closed space.
Make sure that the power ports are not touched by any metallic objects like a key, coin, necklace and watch.
Use only a lithium secondary battery certified and guaranteed by mobile device manufactures.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery. Do not compress or pierce the battery.
Do not apply shock to the battery. For example, do not drop the battery from a high place.
Keep the room temperature between -5 °C and 40 °C. Do not expose the PC to heat hotter than 60 °C.
Keep the machine dry.
Do not discard the battery arbitrarily as you are requested to follow the local procedure for discarding the battery.
Before using this machine, read this guide carefully.

Tip:

When the PC is not used for an extended period of time, refer to the following:

Check the battery charge level on a regular basis and keep it at 50 %. This allows you to extend the battery life.
If the battery is left fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery capacity and battery running time may be reduced.
If the battery is left fully discharged for an extended period of time, it may become over-discharged and cannot be charged again.

For more efficient use of the battery, read the following carefully.

The battery runs low naturally even if it is kept unused.
To increase battery lifespan, use the battery for a while before charging it rather than keeping the battery fully charged.
If you don't use the product for a long time with the battery fully charged, battery lifespan may decrease.

The battery capacity may change due to chemical reactions during charge and discharge.

LG Notebook frequently checks the charge level of its battery based on usage conditions, and then calculates and correctly indicates the actual remaining level of the battery.
The battery is wearable goods and thus the life span may become shorter with use. The battery running time may also become shorter accordingly.
When the battery is fully charged, the machine stops recharging. It resumes recharging when the battery charge rate drops below 95%. This feature secures the safe and efficient use of the battery.
When the temperature of the battery drops below 10 °C, it is charged in a low current to protect the battery cells. In this case, charging time may stretch to up to 32 hours.

If you use the system at a low temperature, refer to the following:

The battery capacity may be reduced depending on the chemical characteristics of the battery, and the system may not be turned on after it freezes or turns off.
If the system freezes or does not turn on, connect the AC adapter to the system and charge the battery fully before use.
If there is any error in the indication of the battery capacity, charge and discharge the battery two or three times at room temperature to return to the normal operation.
