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, Expose

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 necklaces or hair-

pins when carrying or storing.

Do Not Use This Computer with a Battery Pack Other Than

the One Specified

Use only the specified battery pack (CF-VZSU48U) with your

CF-19. 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 battery 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 be-

come 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 re-

charging only when the remaining power is less than approx.

95% of capacity.

The battery pack is not charged when the computer is first

purchased. Be sure to charge it before using it for the first

time. When the AC adaptor is connected to the computer,

charging begins automatically.

Should the battery leak and the fluid get into your eyes, do not

rub your eyes. Immediately flush your eyes with clear water

and see a doctor for medical 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}) “Bat-

tery Power”. Once the allowable range requirement is

satisfied, charging begins automatically. Note that the re-

charging time varies based on the usage conditions. (Re-

charging takes longer than usual when the temperature is

10 °C {50 °F} or below.)

If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened.

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 tempera-

ture environments. ( “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 recharg-

ing 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.

Do Not Turn the Volume Up to Loud When Using Headphones

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 office, etc. or to a digital public phone or

use in a country or area not supported by the computer may

result in a fire or electric shocks.

Do Not Connect a Telephone Line, or a Network Cable Other

Than the One Specified, into the LAN Port

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

below, a fire or electric shock may result.

• Networks other than 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 receiver.

Keep the computer away from magnets. Data stored on the

hard disk may be lost.
