Recharging Battery Precautions
Adhere to the following precautions when recharging the Li-Ion battery.
Use only the NEC battery charger designed for your NEC Versa battery
type. Different NEC Versa models require different batteries and battery
chargers.
Charge the battery for the specified charge time only.
During charging, keep the environmental temperature between 32°F and
104°F (0°C to 40°C).
Read the instructions that came with the battery charger before charging
the battery.
Extending Battery Life
While on the road, it is important to be aware of the simple things you can
do to extend the life of the system’s main battery. One way is to keep the
LCD backlight setting to Standard instead of Full. You can toggle between
these two settings by pressing the function keys
Fn
+
F5
. Or slide the back-
light control to a dimmer level.
You will find an extensive explanation of how best to apply the power
management tools that your system offers in Advanced Topics in the online
Help Center (in some countries, the system ships with an online user’s guide
instead of the Help Center). Other important topics to view in the online
document include Maximizing Battery Life, Battery Charging and Disposal.
