The CF-H2 was developed based on extensive research into the real-world portable computing environments. Pursuit of usability and reliability under harsh conditions led to innovations such as the use of magnesium alloy, vibration damped hard disk drive, exible internal connections. The CF-H2’s outstanding engineering has been tested using the strict 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 any damage. The following usage and handling procedures are recommended.

Before putting the computer away, be sure to wipe off any moisture.

 NOTE

The battery pack may become warm during recharg-

ing 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}). (è allowable range requirement is satised, 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 short-

ened. 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 temperature environments. (è Reference Manual

“Battery Power”) A level corresponding to a 100% charge for high temperature mode is approximately equivalent to an 80% charge level for normal temperature mode.

The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount

of time the computer 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 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.
