Precautions ( Battery Pack )
NOTE
The battery pack may become warm during recharging
or normal use.  This is completely normal.
Recharging will not commence if internal temperature of
the battery pack is outside of the allowable temperature
range (0 °C to 50 °C {32°F to 122 °F}) 
   “Bat-
tery Power”.  Once the allowable range requirement is
satisfied, charging begins automatically.  Note that the
recharging time varies based on the usage conditions. (Re-
charging takes longer than usual when the temperature is
10 °C {50 °F} or less.)
If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened.  Only
use the computer within the allowable temperature range.
This computer has a high temperature mode function that
prevents the degradation of the battery in high tempera-
ture environments. (
  “Battery Power”)  A  level
corresponding to a 100% charge for high temperature is
approximately equivalent to an 80% charge level for nor-
mal temperature mode.
The battery pack is a consumable item.  If the amount of
time the computer can be run off a particular battery pack
becomes dramatically shorter and repeated rechargings
do not restore its performance, the battery pack should be
replaced with a new one.
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.
Always power off the computer when it is not in use.
Leaving the computer on when the AC adaptor is not
connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity.
Care should be exercised with regard to the following in
order to avoid the possibility of overheating, fire or dam-
age.
Avoid Heat
Do not throw the battery pack into a fire or
expose it to excessive heat.
Do Not Disassemble
Do not insert sharp objects into the battery pack,
expose it to bumps or shocks, deform, disas-
semble, or modify it.
Do Not Short
Do not short the positive (+) and negative (-)
contacts.
Do Not Put into a Microwave
Do not put the battery pack into a microwave
oven or a pressurized chamber. Avoid Extreme Heat, Cold and Direct Sun-
light
Do not charge, use or leave the battery pack for
extended periods where it will be exposed to
direct sunlight, in a hot place (in an automobile
on a sunny day, for example), or in a cold place.Keep Articles Away
Do not place the battery pack together with ar-
ticles such as necklaces or hairpins when carry-
ing or storing.If the battery pack will not be used for a long period of time
(a month or more), charge or discharge (use) the battery pack
until the remaining battery level becomes 30% to 40% and
store it in a cool, dry place.
This computer prevents overcharging of the battery by re-
charging only when the remaining power is less than approx.
95% of capacity.
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.
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 possible.
Stop Using
Should the battery emit an abnormal odor, be-
come hot to the touch, become discolored,
change shape, or become in any way different
from normal, remove it from the computer or
charger and stop using it. Do Not Use With Any Other Computer
The battery pack is rechargeable and was in-
tended for the specified computer or charger.
Do not use it with a computer other than the
one for which it was designed.
Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack.  The bat-
tery pack may no longer function properly if the contacts
are dirty or damaged.
Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to
become wet. Lithium Battery!
This computer contains a lithium battery to enable the date, time,
and other data to be stored. The battery should only be exchanged
by authorized service personnel.
Warning! A  risk of explosion from incorrect installation or mis-
application may possibly occur.
