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 al-
lowable temperature range (0 °C to 50 °C {32 °F
to 122 °F}). (è
Reference Manual "Basic Operation" "Battery
Power") Once the allowable range requirement
is satisfied, charging begins automatically. Note
that the recharging time varies based on the us-
age conditions. (Recharging takes longer than
usual when the temperature is 10 °C {50 °F} 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.
