Battery maintenance
1. Fully charge/discharge battery up to 4 cycles before achieving full
capacity of a new battery.
2. Fully discharge and then fully charge the battery every two to three
weeks for battery conditions.
3. Remove from the device and stored in a cool, dry, clean place if the
battery will not be in use for a month or longer and recharge the
battery after a storage period.
4. Do not short-circuit. A short-circuit may cause severe damage to the
battery.
5. Do not drop, hit or otherwise abuse the battery as this may result in
the exposure of the cell contents, which are corrosive.
6. Do not expose the battery to moisture or rain.
7. Keep battery away from fire or other sources of extreme heat. Do not
incinerate. Exposure of battery to extreme heat may result in an
explosion.
8. Do not use AC adapters other than the one provided with the Joybook.
9. Do not place the battery within reach of children.
10.Follow the local laws governing the disposal of batteries. As far as
possible, submit used batteries to be recycled.
11.Use of improper batteries, or attempting to disassemble a battery, may
result in explosions. Follow vendor recommendations in using
batteries of the identical or equivalent type as replacements for worn-
out batteries.
Cleaning your Joybook
When cleaning Joybook, follow these steps:
1. Turn off Joybook, disconnect the AC adapter, and remove the battery.
2. Use a damp cloth to wipe the outer surface of the computer. Do not
apply liquid or spray cleaners directly on the Joybook.
3. Do not use cleaners containing alcohol or acetone. Instead, use
cleaning fluids specially formulated for LCD screens.
