Precautions (Battery Pack)
Do Not Use With Any Other Product
The battery pack is rechargeable and was intended for the
speciedproduct.Ifitisusedwithaproductotherthanthe
one for which it was designed, electrolyte leakage, genera-
tion of heat, ignition or rupture may result.
Do Not Charge the Battery Using Methods Other Than
Those Specied
Ifthebatteryisnotchargedusingoneofthespecied
methods, electrolyte leakage, generation of heat, ignition or
rupture may result.
Do Not Throw the Battery Pack Into a Fire or Expose It
to Excessive Heat
Generation of heat, ignition or rupture may result.
Avoid Extreme Heat (Near the Fire, In Direct Sunlight, for
Example)
Electrolyte leakage, generation of heat, ignition or rupture
may result.
Do Not Insert Sharp Objects Into the Battery Pack, Ex-
pose It to Bumps or Shocks, Disassemble, or Modify It
Electrolyte leakage, generation of heat, ignition or rupture
may result.
Do Not Short the Positive (+) and Negative (-) Contacts
Generation of heat, ignition or rupture may result. Do not
place the battery pack together with articles such as neck-
laces or hairpins when carrying or storing.
Do Not Use This Product with a Battery Pack Other Than
the One Specied
Useonlythespeciedbatterypack(CF-VZSU46U)withyour
product. Use of battery packs other than those manufactured
and supplied by Panasonic may present a safety hazard
(generation of heat, ignition or rupture).
lDo not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The bat-
tery 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.Immediatelyushyoureyeswith
clear water and see a doctor for medical treatment as
soon as possible.
Networks other than 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or
10BASE-T
Phone lines (IP Phone, Telephone lines, internal phone
lines (on-premise switches), digital public phones, etc.)
Do Not Use With Exposing the Skin To This Product For
a Long Period of Time
Using this product with exposing the skin to the heat source
of this product or AC adaptor for a long period of time can
cause a low-temperature burn.
lDo not place the computer near a television or radio
receiver.
lKeep the computer away from magnets. Data stored on
the hard disk may be lost.
NOTE
lThe battery pack may become warm during recharg-
ing or normal use. This is completely normal.
lRecharging will not commence if internal temperature
of the battery pack is outside of the allowable temper-
ature range (0 °C to 50 °C {32°F to 122 °F}).
(èReference Manual “Battery 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 {50 °F} or below.)
lIf the temperature is low, the operating time is short-
ened. Only use the computer within the allowable
temperature range.
lThis computer has a high temperature mode function
that prevents the degradation of the battery in high
temperature environments. (èReference Manual
“Battery Power”) A level corresponding to a 100%
charge for high temperature mode is approximately
equivalent to an 80% charge level for normal tempera-
ture 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 recommended 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 exhaust the remaining battery capacity.
