Safety Precautions

The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, usage, service or repair of any
Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN. Manufacturers of the cellular terminal are
advised to convey the following safety information to users and operating personnel and to incorporate these guidelines
into all manuals supplied with the product. Failure to comply with these precautions violates safety standards of design,
manufacture and intended use of the product. Panasonic assumes no liability for customer failure to comply with these
precautions.
Troubleshooting
When in a hospital or other health care facility, observe the restrictions on the use of mobiles. Switch
Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN off, if instructed to do so by the
guidelines posted in sensitive areas. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF energy. The operation of
cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and hearing aids can be affected by interference
from Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN placed close to the device. If in
doubt about potential danger, contact the physician or the manufacturer of the device to verify that the
equipment is properly shielded. Pacemaker patients are advised to keep their Personal Computer or
Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN away from the pacemaker, while it is on.
Switch off Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN before boarding an
aircraft. Make sure it cannot be switched on inadvertently. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft
is forbidden to prevent interference with communications systems. Failure to observe these instructions may
lead to the suspension or denial of cellular services to the offender, legal action, or both.
Appendix
Do not operate Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN in the presence of
flammable gases or fumes. Switch off the cellular terminal when you are near petrol stations, fuel depots,
chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Operation of any electrical equipment in
potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a safety hazard.
Your Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN receives and transmits radio
frequency energy while switched on. Remember that interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets,
radios, computers or inadequately shielded equipment. Follow any special regulations and always switch off
Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN wherever forbidden, or when you
suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Road safety comes first! Do not use a Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless
WAN while driving a vehicle. Do not place the computer with Wireless WAN in an area where it could cause
personal injury to the driver or passengers. It is recommended to stow the unit in the boot or secure stowage
area while driving. Do not place the computer with Wireless WAN in an area over an air bag or in the vicinity
where an air bag may deploy. Air bags inflate with great force and if the computer with Wireless WAN is
placed in the air bag deployment area may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to
occupants of the vehicle.
IMPORTANT!
Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating Wireless WAN operate using radio signals and
cellular networks cannot be guaranteed to connect in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely
upon any wireless device for essential communications, for example emergency calls.
Remember, in order to make or receive calls, Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating
Wireless WAN must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength.
Some networks do not allow for emergency calls if certain network services or phone features are in use (e.g.
lock functions, fixed dialing etc.). You may need to deactivate those features before you can make an
emergency call.
“NOTICE: The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets telecommunications network protective, operational and safety
requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirements document(s). The Department
does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s
satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is
permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be
installed using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some
situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment
malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company
cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical
ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and
internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected
together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural
areas. Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.”
“NOTICE: The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to
each terminal device provides an indication of the maximum
number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone
interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any
combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the
sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices
does not exceed 5.”

L’entreprise de télécommunications peut demander à l’utilisateur de débrancher un appareil à la suite de réparations ou
de modifications effectuées par l’utilisateur ou à cause de
mauvais fonctionnement.
Pour sa propre protection, l’utilisateur doit s’assurer que tous
les fils de mise à la terre de la source d’énergie électrique, des
lignes téléphoniques et des canalisations d’eau métalliques,
s’il y en a, sont raccordés ensemble. Cette précaution est particulièrement importante dans les régions rurales. Avertissement: L’utilisateur ne doit pas tenter de faire ces
raccordements lui-même; il doit avoir recours à un service
d’inspection des installations électriques, ou à un électricien,
selon le cas.”
“AVIS: L’indice d’équivalence de la sonnerie (IES) assigné à
chaque dispositif terminal indique le nombre maximal de terminaux qui peuvent être raccordés à une interface. La terminaison d’une interface téléphonique peut consister en une
combinaison de quelques dispositifs, à la seule condition que
la somme d’indices d’équivalence de la sonnerie de touts les
dispositifs n’excède pas 5.”

z Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The
battery pack may no longer function properly if the
contacts are dirty or damaged.
z Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to
become wet.
z 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.
z This computer prevents overcharging of the battery by
recharging only when the remaining power is less than
approx. 95% (when Economy Mode (ECO) is enabled:
75%) of capacity.
z 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.
z 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
z The battery pack may become warm during
recharging or normal use. This is completely normal.
z Recharging will not commence if internal temperature of the battery pack is outside of the allowable
temperature range (0 °C to 55 °C {32 °F to 131 °F}).
(Î
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.)
If the temperature is low, the operating time is
shortened. Only use the computer within the allowable temperature range.
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.

Troubleshooting
Appendix
Getting Started
The keyboard, touch pad, and palm rest on this computer incorporate a drain
system (a moisture protection mechanism) that minimizes the amount of liquid
reaching the inside of the computer even if water is spilled on the keyboard.
Any water that comes in contact with the keyboard is drained off through holes
in the bottom of the computer, so that virtually no water is left inside the computer. However, this is not a guarantee against damage to the hard disk or
other internal parts, or against the loss or deletion of data.
