Recycling your battery
Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a shorter amount of time ;
this is a natural occurrence for all batteries. Whe n this occurs, you may want to replace the batter y with a fresh
one*. If you replace it, it is important that you dispose of the old bat tery properly because batteries contain
materia ls that cou ld cause e nvironmental damage if disposed of improperly.
Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the serv ices of the Rechargeable
Batter y Recycling Corporation ( RBRC )**, a non-profit publi c service organization dedicated to protecting
our environment by recycling old batteries at no cost to you.
RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousa nds of locations throughout the United States and Canada.
To find the location nearest you, go to www.RBRC.org or call 1-800-822-8837.
If there are no convenient RBRC lo cations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer Education Initiative
website ( http://EIAE.org /) and search for a convenient disposal location. Remember—protecting the environment
is a coope rative ef fort, and you should make every effor t to protect it fo r current and future generations.
* To order a new batte ry for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site at
www.shopfujitsu.com in the US or w ww.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks in Canada.
** RBRC is an independent third part y to which Fujitsu provides funding for battery
recycling; RBRC is in no way affiliated with Fujitsu.
