A lithium ion battery that is recyclable powers the product
you have purchased.
Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to
recycle this battery.
L’appareil que vous vous êtes procuré est alimenté par
une batterie au lithium-ion.
Pour des renseignements sur le recyclage de la batterie,
veuillez composer le 1-800-8-BATTERY 48-M-1
The battery pack is not charged when
the computer is fi rst purchased. Be
sure to charge it before using it for
the fi rst time. When the AC adaptor is
connected to the computer, charging
begins automatically.
Should the battery leak and the fl uid
get into your eyes, do not rub your
eyes. Immediately fl ush your eyes with
clear water and see a doctor for medi-
cal treatment as soon as possible.
NOTE
The battery pack may become
warm during recharging or normal
use. This is completely normal.
Recharging will not commence if
internal temperature of the battery
pack is outside of the allowable
temperature range (0 °C to 50 °C
{32°F to 122 °F}).
( Reference Manual “Battery
Power”) Once the allowable range
requirement is satisfi ed, charging
begins automatically. Note that the
recharging time varies based on the
usage conditions. (Recharging
takes longer than usual when the
temperature is 10 °C {50 °F} or
below.)
In high-temperature environments,
the battery takes longer to fully
recharge and the operating time is
shorter. Only use the computer
within the allowable temperature
range.
This computer has a high tempera-
ture mode function that prevents
the degradation of the battery in
high temperature environments.
( Reference Manual “Battery
Power”) A level corresponding to a
100% charge for high temperature
mode is approximately equivalent to
an 80% charge level for normal
temperature mode.
The battery pack is a consumable
item. If the amount of time the
computer can be run by using a
particular battery pack becomes
dramatically shorter and repeated
recharging does not restore its
performance, the battery pack
should be replaced with a new one.
When transporting a spare battery
inside a package, briefcase, etc., it
is recommended that it be placed in
a plastic bag so that its contacts are
protected.
Always power off the computer
when it is not in use. Leaving the
computer on when the AC adaptor
is not connected will exhaust the
remaining battery capacity.
CAUTION:
Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced
by an Incorrect Type.
Dispose of Used Batteries According
to the Instructions.
