Getting Started

CAUTION:

Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced by an Incorrect

Type. Dispose of Used Batteries According to the Instruc-

tions.

58-E-1

ATTENTION:

Il y a risque d’explosion si la batterie est remplacée par

une batterie de type incorrect.

Mettre au rebut les batteries usagées conformément aux

instructions.

58-F-1

 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.

NOTE

 The battery pack may become warm during recharg-

ing or normal use. This is completely normal.

 Recharging will not commence if internal tempera-

ture of the battery pack is outside of the allowable

temperature range (0 °C to 50 °C) ( Reference

Manual “Battery Power”). Once the allowable range

requirement is satisﬁ ed, charging begins automati-

cally. Note that the recharging time varies based on

the usage conditions. (Recharging takes longer than

usual when the temperature is 10 °C 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

( Reference Manual “LAN”).
