Guidelines for Battery Use
c
Caution: Never dispose of exhausted batteries
in a fire.
The battery should be handled carefully to
ensure maximum life. In particular:
❑
Do not drop the battery or subject it to
shocks.
❑
Do not expose the battery to moisture,
chemicals, or temperature extremes.
❑
Do not short the battery leads or connect
the battery with the wrong polarity.
❑
Charge the battery after several days of
disuse to keep it fully charged. If your
computer is idle for an extended period of
time, charge the battery every three months.
❑
Never use the battery to power other
products.
❑
The battery pack has thermal fuses to
prevent unsafe computer operation. The
computer may not operate on battery power
after storage in a very warm place until the
thermal fuses cool.
❑
The battery and its case are built as one
unit; do not try to open the battery case.
Your computer comes with two Lithium-ION
battery packs (or one on the TM5020SE models).
Keeping an extra, fully-charged battery pack on
hand can extend the time you can operate your
computer. TM5000 Series computers allow you
to replace depleted batteries with charged
batteries when the computer still in operational
mode (hot pluggable).
