3Precautions Regarding Battery
ENGLISH
Guide on Battery Usage
When the PC is not used for
an extended period of time,
keep the battery level at
about 50 % to increase the
battery lifespan.
Use the Extend Battery Life
function in the LG Control
Center. You can limit the
battery charge to 80 %
of the maximum charging
capacity to increase the
battery lifespan.
To increase battery lifespan,
use the battery for a while
before charging it rather
than keeping the battery
completely charged.
If you don't use the product
for a long time with the
battery completely charged,
the battery lifespan may
decrease.
Connecting to the Power

• Do not use any other AC adapter than the one that was provided when you purchased
this product.

and the other end to a power outlet.
• The AC adapter can be used from 100 V to 240 V.

sufficiently before using it.
Precautions Regarding Battery
