13Getting To Know Your NotebookBattery The  battery  is  one  of  the  most  important components  of  your  notebook.  When  not plugged into a mains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You can increase the life of the battery by caring for the battery properly. You  can  extend  the  battery  life  by  taking advantage  of  the  available  energy  saving functions. Charging, caring for andmaintaining the battery The  notebook  battery  can  only  be  charged, when the ambient temperature is between 5°C and max. 35°C. You  can  charge the  battery  by  connecting the notebook to the mains adapter. You  can  increase  the  life  of  your  battery  by allowing it  to fully discharge  before recharging it again. To do this, leave your notebook turned on  when  it  is  operated  with  the  battery.  Once the  battery  is  running  low  you  will  hear  a warning alarm. If you do not connect the mains adapter  within  five  minutes  of  the  warning alarm  described  above,  your  notebook  will automatically switch off. Monitoring the battery charging level Windows  also  has  a  “Battery  status  meter”  in the taskbar for monitoring the battery capacity. When  you  place  the  mouse  pointer  on  the battery symbol, the system displays the battery status. Battery storage Keep the battery pack between 0°C and +30°C. The lower the temperature at which the batteries are stored, the lower the rate of self-discharge. If  you  will  be  storing  batteries  for  a  longer period  (more  than  two  months),  the  battery charge level should be approx. 30 %. To prevent exhaustive discharge, check the charging level of the battery at regular intervals. To be able to make use of the optimal charging capacity  of  the  batteries,  the  battery  should be  completely  discharged  and  then  fully recharged. If  you  do  not  use  the  batteries  for  long periods, remove them from the notebook. Never store the batteries in the device.Removing and installing the battery Only use batteries approved by Fujitsu for your notebook. Never  use  force  when  inserting  or removing a battery. Make  sure  that  no  foreign  bodies  get  into  the battery connections. •  Switch off your notebook and disconnect the power plug from the mains socket. •  Close  the  LCD  screen  so  that  it  fully  locks into place. •  Disconnect  all  cables  connected  to  the notebook. •  Turn  your  notebook  over  and  place  it  on  a firm, flat and clean surface.
