Care should be exercised with regard to the
following in order to avoid the possibility
of overheating, fire, or damage.
Avoid Heat
Do not throw the battery pack
into a fire or expose it to exces-
sive heat.
Keep Articles Away
Do not place the battery pack to-
gether with articles such as neck-
laces or hairpins when carrying or
storing.
Do Not Disassemble
Do not insert sharp objects into the
battery pack, expose it to bumps
or shocks, deform, disassemble, or
modify it.
Do Not Short
Do not short the positive (+) and
negative (-) contacts.
Avoid Extreme Heat, Cold and
Direct Sunlight
Do not charge, use or leave the bat-
tery pack for extended periods
where it will be exposed to direct
sunlight, in a hot place (in an au-
tomobile on a sunny day, for ex-
ample), or in a cold place.
Do Not Use With Any Other
Equipment
The battery pack is rechargeable
and was intended for the specified
equipment or charger.  Do not use
it with an equipment other than the
one for which it was designed.
Precautions (Battery Pack)
Read Me First
Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack.
The battery pack may no longer function prop-
erly if the contacts are dirty or damaged.
Do not expose the battery pack to water, or
allow it to become wet.
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 equipment prevents overcharging of
the battery by recharging only when the re-
maining power is less than approx. 95% of
capacity.
The battery pack is not charged when the
equipment is first purchased.  Be sure to
charge it before using it for the first time.
When the AC adaptor is connected to the
equipment, charging begins automatically.
Should the battery leak and the fluid get into
your eyes, do not rub your eyes.  Immedi-
ately flush your eyes with clear water and
see a doctor for medical treatment as soon
as possible.
Do Not Put into a Microwave
Do not put the battery pack into a
microwave oven or a pressurized
chamber.
Stop Using
Should the battery emit an abnor-
mal odor, become hot to the touch,
become discolored, change shape,
or become in any way different
from normal, remove it from the
equipment and stop using it. Do not use this wireless display
with a battery pack other than the
one specified (the one included with
the wireless display or the specified
battery pack sold separately)

Illustration in this manual
Some of the illustrations in this manual may differ slightly in shape from the actual items
in order to make the explanation easier to understand.

pens, log on with the administrator authority to enable these functions.
The “CD/DVD drive” is a description about drives, such as DVD-ROM, CD-ROM, CD-

NOTE
The battery pack may become warm during recharging or normal use.  This is com-
pletely normal.
Recharging will not commence outside of the allowable temperature range (0 °C to
45 °C {32°F to 113 °F}) 
 page 18.  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 temperature
is 10 °C {50 °F} or less.)
If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened.  Only use the equipment
within the allowable temperature range.
The battery pack is a consumable item.  If the amount of time the equipment 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.
When a spare battery pack is to be carried in a pocket or bag, it is recommended that
it be placed in a plastic bag so that its contacts are protected.
Always power off the equipment when it is not in use. Leaving the equipment on
when the AC adaptor is not connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity.
Precaution
Avoiding low-temperature burns
Avoid more than casual contact with any heat producing area of the equipment,
AC adaptor, and any option or accessory you use with it. Even low heat, if
warmer than body temperature, can cause a burn, if the skin is exposed to the
heat source for a long enough period of time.
