I wouldn't be too worried if you don't have time to charge it fully.

Check here:
Charging lithium-ion batteries

To quote from it, he says:

"Lithium-ion is a very clean system and does not need priming as nickel-based batteries do. The 1st charge is no different to the 5th or the 50th charge. Stickers instructing to charge the battery for 8 hours or more for the first time may be a leftover from the nickel battery days. "
