l
The battery pack is not charged when
the computer is first purchased. Be
sure to charge it before using it for the
first time. When the AC adaptor is
connected to the computer, charging
begins automatically.
l
Should the battery leak and the fluid
get into your eyes, do not rub your
eyes. Immediately flush your eyes
with clear water and see a doctor for
medical treatment as soon as pos-
sible.
NOTE
l
The battery pack may become warm
during recharging or normal use. This
is completely normal.
l
Recharging will not commence if
internal temperature of the battery
pack is outside of the allowable tem-
perature range (0 °C to 50 °C {32°F
to 122 °F}).
(
è
Reference Manual
“Battery
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 tempera-
ture is 10 °C {50 °F} or below.)
l
In high-temperature environments,
the battery takes longer to fully re-
charge and the operating time is
shorter. Only use the computer within
the allowable temperature range.
l
This computer has a high tempera-
ture mode function that prevents the
degradation of the battery in high
temperature environments. (
è
Reference Manual
“Battery Power”) A
level corresponding to a 100% charge
for high temperature mode is approxi-
mately equivalent to an 80% charge
level for normal temperature mode.
l
The battery pack is a consumable
item. If the amount of time the com-
puter can be run by using a particular
battery pack becomes dramatically
shorter and repeated 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
recommended 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 con-
nected will exhaust the remaining
battery capacity.
CAUTION:
Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced
by an Incorrect Type.
Dispose of Used Batteries According to
the Instructions.
58-E-1
ATTENTION:
Il y a risque d’explosion si la batterie est
