Recharging the internal battery
While the machine is connected to the AC power supply and
internal battery is being recharged, the power supply light will turn
red, yellow, and then green.
To maintain the rechargeable battery in good condition, it should be
kept fully charged wherever possible. If the battery is to be stored,
the rechargeable battery should be fully charged before storage
and then recharged at 3 month intervals.
