Precautions
The CF-P1 was developed based on thorough research into real-world portable computing
environments. Exhaustive pursuit of usability and reliability under harsh conditions led to
innovations such as the magnesium alloy exterior and flexible internal connections.
The CF-P1's outstanding engineering has been tested using the stiff MIL-STD- 810F (for
vibration and shock) and IP (for dust and water) based procedures.
As with any portable computer device precautions should be taken to avoid to the CF-P1
damage. The following usage and handling procedures are recommended.
Before putting the computer away, be sure to wipe off any moisture.
A void Extr eme Heat and Cold

your computer.
Avoid Excessive Force on the
LCD
Do not apply excessive downward force on the LCD.
Handling
Do not drop or hit your computer against
solid objects.
Remove all cables before transporting your
computer.
We recommend that the battery be fully
charged. We also recommend that the
backup battery (a built-in coin type battery) be fully charged.
When transporting spare batteries inside a
package, briefcase, etc., we recommend
that the batteries be stored in a plastic bag.
Always carry your computer with you when
traveling. Never check it in with luggage.
For use of the computer inside an aircraft,
we recommend asking the airlines regarding their policy on this issue.
It is a good idea to make backup copies on
SD memory cards/MultiMedia Cards and
carry them with you.

Precautions
Battery Pack
Care should be exercised with regard to the
following in order to avoid the possibility
of over-heating, fire, or damage.
Avoid Heat
Do not throw the battery pack
into a fire or expose it to excessive heat.
Keep Articles A way
Do not place the battery pack together with articles such as necklaces or hairpins when carrying
or storing.
Do Not Disassemble
Do not insert sharp objects into
the battery pack, expose it to
bumps or shocks, or deform, disassemble, or modify it.
Do Not Short
Do not short the positive (+) and
negative (-) contacts.
A void Extreme Heat, Cold and
Direct Sunlight
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.
Do Not Put Into a Microwave
Do not put the battery pack into
a microwave oven or a pressurized chamber.
Do Not Use With Any Other
Device
The battery pack is rechargeable
and was intended for the specified computer. Do not use it with
a device other than the one for
which it was designed.
Stop Using
Should the battery emit an abnormal odor, become hot to the
touch, become discolored,
change shape, or become in any
way different from normal, remove it from the computer and
stop using it.
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.
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, char ging begins automatically.
If the battery leaks and the fluid gets 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.
About High T emperature Mode
This computer has a high temperature mode
function that prevents the degradation of
the battery in high temperature environments. We recommend setting the high
temperature mode function when installing the computer in a car, etc. To do this,
set [Charging mode] in - [Settings] [System] tab - [Panasonic Settings] to [High
Temperature]. In the high temperature
mode, the full charge capacity of battery
becomes approximately 80 %.
6
NOTE
The battery pack may become warm during recharging or normal use. This is completely
normal.
Recharging will not commence outside of the allowable temperature range (5 °C to 40 °C
{41°F to 104°F})*. Even if charging stops because the temperature is outside the
charging temperature range, the battery indicator will remain in the illuminated orange.
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 below.)
If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened. Only use the computer within
the allowable temperature range.
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 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 computer when it is not in use. Leaving the computer on when the
AC adaptor is not connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity .
*These temperature settings are valid when the battery is charging and the computer is off.
The temperature range may become narrower when the battery is charging and the computer
is operating.
A lithium ion battery that is recyclable powers the product
you have purchased. Please call 1-800-8-BA TTER Y for information on how to recycle this battery .
L’appareil que vous vous êtes procuré est alimenté par une
