NOTE
l
The battery pack may become warm dur-
ing recharging or normal use. This is com-
pletely normal.
l
Recharging will not commence if internal
temperature of the battery pack is outside
of the allowable temperature range (0
°C
to 50
°C
). (
Reference Manual
“Bat-
tery 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
or below.)
l
If the temperature is low, the operating
time is shortened. Only use the computer
within the allowable temperature range.
l
This computer has a high temperature
mode function that prevents the degra-
dation 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 temperature mode.
l
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.
l
When transporting a spare battery inside a
package, briefcase, etc., it is recommend-
ed that it be placed in a plastic bag so that
its contacts are protected.
l
Always power off the computer when it is
not in use. Leaving the computer on when
the AC adaptor is not connected will ex-
haust the remaining battery capacity.
l
<Only for model with Built-in Bridge Battery>
To minimize deterioration of the built-in
bridge battery, connect the computer to the
AC adaptor and recharge it for approxi-
mately 2 hours about once every year.
