Traveling with your LifeBook notebook

■

Do not transport your notebook while it is turned on.

■

It is recommended that you carry your notebook with
you while traveling, rather than checking it in as bag-
gage.

■

Always bring your System Recovery CD that came with
your notebook when you travel. If you experience sys-
tem software problems while traveling, you may need it
to correct any problems.

■

Never put your notebook through a metal detector.
Have your notebook hand-inspected by security per-
sonnel. You can however, put your notebook through a
properly tuned X-ray machine. To avoid problems,
place your notebook close to the entrance of the
machine and remove it as soon as possible or have your
notebook hand-inspected by security personnel. Secu-
rity officials may require you to turn your notebook
On. Make sure you have a charged battery on hand.

■

Take the necessary plug adapters if you're traveling over-
seas. Check the following diagram to determine which
plug adapter you'll need or ask your travel agent.

BATTERIES

Caring for your Batteries

■

Always handle batteries carefully.

■

Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do
not touch both terminals with a metal object). Do not
carry lose batteries in a pocket or purse where they may

mix with coins, keys, or other metal objects. Doing so
may cause an explosion or fire.

■

Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate or incin-
erate the battery.

■

Recharge batteries only as described in this manual and
only in ventilated areas.

■

Do not leave batteries in hot locations for more than a
day or two. Intense heat can shorten battery life.

■

Do not leave a battery in storage for longer than 6
months without recharging it.

Increasing Battery Life

■

Power your LifeBook notebook through the AC or
optional auto/airline adapter whenever possible.

■

If your notebook is running on battery power all day,
connect it to the AC adapter overnight to recharge the
battery.

■

Keep brightness to the lowest level comfortable.

■

Set the power management for maximum battery life.

■

Put your notebook in Standby mode when it is turned
on and you are not actually using it.

■

Limit your media drive access.

Disable the Media Player auto insert notification
function.

■

Always use fully charged batteries.

■

Eject PC Cards and ExpressCards when not in use.
