Battery Care
The Notebook PC’s battery pack, like all rechargeable batteries, has
a limit on the number times it can be recharged. The battery pack’s
useful life will depend on your environment temperature, humidity,
and how your Notebook PC is used. It is ideal that the battery be
used in a temperature range between 10˚C and 35˚C
(50˚F and 95˚F). You must also take into account that the Notebook
PC’s internal temperature is higher than the outside temperature.
Any temperatures above or below this range will shorten the life
of the battery. But in any case, the battery pack’s usage time will
eventually decrease and a new battery pack must be purchased
from an authorized dealer for this Notebook PC. Because batteries
also have a shelf life, it is not recommended to buy extras for storing.
