Pour des renseignements sur le recyclage de la batterie, 
veuillez composer le 
1-800-8-BATTERY                                                    48-M-1
  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 pos-
sible.
  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 satisfied, 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 tem-
perature 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.
