NOTE
l
The battery pack may become warm during
recharging or normal use. This is completely
normal.
l
Recharging will not commence if internal tem-
perature of the battery pack is outside of the
allowable temperature range (0
°C
to 50
°C
).
(

Operating Instructions - Reference
Manual “Basic Operation” “Battery Power”)
Once the allowable range requirement is satis-
fied, 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
or below.)
l
If the temperature is low, the operating time is
shortened. Only use the computer within the
allowable temperature range.
l
The battery pack is a consumable item. If the
amount of time the computer can be run by us-
ing a particular battery pack becomes dramati-
cally 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 connected will exhaust the
remaining battery capacity.

<Only for model with Built-in Bridge Battery>
To minimize deterioration of the built-in bridge
battery, connect the computer to the AC adap-
tor and recharge it for approximately 2 hours
about once every year.
