Read Me First

Do Not Turn the Volume Up to Loud When Using Head-

phones

Listening at high volumes that overstimulate the ear for long

periods of time may result in loss of hearing.
Use the Modem with a Regular Telephone Line

Connection to an internal phone line (on-premise switches)

of a company or business offi ce, etc. or to a digital public

phone or use in a country or area not supported by the com-

puter may result in a fi re or electric shocks.
Do Not Connect a Telephone Line, or a Network Cable

Other Than the One Specifi ed, into the LAN Port

If the LAN port is connected to a network such as the ones

listed below, a fi re or electric shock may result.

Precautions (Battery Pack)

Do Not Use with Any Other Computer

The battery pack is rechargeable and was intended for the

specifi ed computer. If it is used with a computer other than

the one for which it was designed, electrolyte leakage, gen-

eration of heat, ignition or rupture may result.
Do Not Charge the Battery Using the Methods Other

Than Those Specifi ed

If the battery is not charged using one of the specifi ed

methods, electrolyte leakage, generation of heat, ignition or

rupture may result.
Do Not Throw the Battery Pack into a Fire or Expose It

to Excessive Heat

Generation of heat, ignition or rupture may result.
Avoid Extreme Heat (Near the Fire, in Direct Sunlight, for

Example)

Electrolyte leakage, generation of heat, ignition or rupture

may result.
Do Not Insert Sharp Objects into the Battery Pack, Ex-

pose It to Bumps or Shocks, Disassemble, or Modify It

Electrolyte leakage, generation of heat, ignition or rupture

may result.
Do Not Short the Positive (+) and Negative (–) Contacts

Generation of heat, ignition or rupture may result. Do not

place the battery pack together with articles such as neck-

laces or hairpins when carrying or storing.
Do Not Use This Computer with a Battery Pack Other

Than the One Specifi ed

Use only the specifi ed battery pack (CF-VZSU46U) with your

CF-30. Use of battery packs other than those manufactured

and supplied by Panasonic may present a safety hazard

(generation of heat, ignition or rupture).

Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The bat-

tery pack may no longer function properly if the contacts
are dirty or damaged.

Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to

become wet.

If the battery pack will not be used for a long period of

time (a month or more), charge or discharge (use) the
battery pack until the remaining battery level becomes
30% to 40% and store it in a cool, dry place.

This computer prevents overcharging of the battery by

recharging only when the remaining power is less than
approx. 95% of capacity.

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 medical treatment as
soon as possible.

Networks other than 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or

10BASE-T

Phone lines (Telephone lines, internal phone lines (on-

premise switches), digital public phones, etc.)

Do Not Use with Exposing the Skin to the Computer for

a Long Period of Time

Using the computer with exposing the skin to the heat source

of the computer or AC adaptor for a long period of time can

cause a low-temperature burn.

Do not place the computer near a television or radio re-

ceiver.

Keep the computer away from magnets. Data stored on

the hard disk may be lost.

NOTE

The battery pack may become warm during recharg-

ing or normal use. This is completely normal.

Recharging will not commence if internal temperature

of the battery pack is outside of the allowable temper-
ature 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.)

If the temperature is low, the operating time is short-

ened. Only use the computer within the allowable
temperature range.

This computer has a high temperature 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 tempera-
ture 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 re-
peated 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.
