Panasonic CF- Notebook Computer - Page 8

Getting Started Read Me First NOTE The battery pack may become warm during recharging or normal use. This is com- pletely 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 off a particular battery pack becomes dramatically shorter and repeated recharging do 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. 8
