• Input rating of the ac power adapter: 100 V to 240 V ac, 50 Hz to 60 Hz
• Output rating of the ac power adapter: 20 V dc, 2.25 A or 3.25 A
When the battery power is low, charge your battery by connecting your computer to ac power with the
supplied power adapter. The 65 W ac power adapter supports the rapid charge function, the battery is 80%
charged in about one hour when the computer is turned off. The actual charging time depends on the battery
size, the physical environment, and whether you are using the computer.
Battery charging is also affected by its temperature. The recommended temperature range for charging the
battery is between 10°C (50°F) and 35°C (95°F).

use, full battery capacity may not be available until you discharge to as low as 20% and recharge
completely. For more information, refer to the power section of the Vantage app.
