  NOTE 
l
  The battery pack may become warm during recharging or 
normal use.  This is completely normal.
l
  Recharging will not commence if internal temperature of the 
battery pack is outside of the allowable temperature range 
(0 °C to 50 °C {32 °F to 122 °F}).  
(è 
 Reference Manual “Battery Power”) Once the allow-
able range requirement is satisfied, charging begins auto-
matically.  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.)
l
  If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened.  
Only use the computer within the allowable temperature 
range.
l
  This computer has a high temperature mode function that 
prevents the degradation of the battery in high temperature 
environments. (è 
 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.
l
  The 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 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, brief-
case, 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.
