- Caring for your LifeBook Notebook
Storing your LifeBook notebook
•
If storing your notebook for a month or longer, turn your LifeBook notebook off, fully charge the
battery, then remove and store all Lithium ion batteries.
•
Store your notebook and batteries separately. If you store your LifeBook with a battery installed,
the battery will discharge, and battery life will be reduced. In addition, a faulty battery might
damage your LifeBook.
•
Store your Fujitsu LifeBook in a cool, dry location. Temperatures should remain between 13ºF
(-25ºC) and 140ºF (60ºC).
Traveling with your LifeBook notebook
•
Do not transport your notebook while it is turned on.
•
It is recommended that you carry your notebook with you while traveling, rather than checking it
in as baggage.
•
Always bring your System Recovery CD that came with your notebook when you travel. If you
experience system software problems while traveling, you may need it to correct any problems.
•
Never put your notebook through a metal detector. Have your notebook hand-inspected by security
personnel. You can however, put your notebook through a properly tuned X-ray machine. To avoid
problems, place your notebook close to the entrance of the machine and remove it as soon as
possible or have your notebook hand-inspected by security personnel. Security officials may
require you to turn your notebook on, so make sure you have a charged battery on hand.
