NOTICE

lDo not place the computer near a televi-

sion or radio receiver.

lKeep the computer away from magnets.

Data stored on the ash memory may be

lost.

lThis computer is not intended for the dis-

play of images for use in medical diagno-

sis.

lThis computer is not intended for a use

with connection of medical equipment for

the purpose of medical diagnosis.

lPanasonic shall not be liable for loss of

data or other incidental or consequential

damages resulting from the use of this

product.

lDo not touch the terminals on the battery

pack. The battery pack may no longer

function properly if the contacts are dirty or

damaged.

lDo not expose the battery pack to water,

or allow it to become wet.

lIf the battery pack will not be used for a

long period of time (a month or more),

charge or discharge (use) the battery pack

until the remaining battery level becomes

30% to 40% and store it in a cool, dry

place.

lThis computer prevents overcharging of

the battery by recharging only when the

remaining power is less than approx. 95%

of capacity.

lThe battery pack is not charged when the

computer is rst purchased. Be sure to

charge it before using it for the rst time.

When the AC adaptor is connected to the

computer, charging begins automatically.

l Should the battery leak and the uid get

into your eyes, do not rub your eyes. Im-

mediately ush your eyes with clear water

and see a doctor for medical treatment as

NOTE

lThe battery pack may become warm dur-

ing recharging or normal use. This is com-

pletely normal.

lRecharging will not commence if internal

temperature of the battery pack is outside

of the allowable temperature range (0 °C

to 50 °C). (Reference Manual “Bat-

tery Power”) Once the 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 or below.)

lIf the temperature is low, the operating

time is shortened. Only use the computer

within the allowable temperature range.

lThis computer has a high temperature

mode function that prevents the degra-

dation of the battery in high temperature

environments. (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.

lThe 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 re-

peated recharging does not restore its

performance, the battery pack should be

replaced with a new one.

lWhen transporting a spare battery inside a

package, briefcase, etc., it is recommend-

ed that it be placed in a plastic bag so that

its contacts are protected.

lAlways power off the computer when it is

not in use. Leaving the computer on when

the AC adaptor is not connected will ex-

haust the remaining battery capacity.

To minimize deterioration of the built-in

bridge battery, connect the computer to the

AC adaptor and recharge it for approxi-

mately 2 hours about once every year.
