Care and use of the battery pack
This section provides the important safety precautions in order to handle
your battery pack properly.
Refer to the enclosed
Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort
for
detailed precautions and handling instructions.
Charge the battery pack only in an ambient temperature from 5 through 35
degrees Celsius. Otherwise, the electrolyte solution might leak, battery
pack performance might deteriorate, and the battery life might be
shortened.
Charging the batteries
When the power in the battery pack becomes low, the
DC IN/Battery
indicator flashes amber to indicate that only a few minutes of battery power
remain. If you continue to use the computer while the
DC IN/Battery
indicator flashes, the computer enters Hibernation Mode so that you do not
lose any data, and automatically turn itself off.
You must recharge a battery pack when it becomes discharged.
Procedures
