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 (0 °C to
45 °C {32°F to 113 °F}) “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 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.
The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount of time the computer can be run

vice Pack2.

Hard Disk Lock

When the Hard Disk Lock is set to [Enable], it is impossible to read/write data from/to the
hard disk when the hard disk is installed in a different computer, since a password is also
set for the hard disk. When the hard disk is returned to the original computer, you can read/
write data as before. In this case, however, make the settings in the Setup Utility exactly
the same as they were before the hard disk was removed. (Note that this Hard Disk Lock
does not guarantee the complete protection of data.) ( “Security Measures”)
