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 Suspend 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 func-
tion.

FLOPPY DISKS AND DRIVES

Caring for your Floppy Disks

■

Avoid using the floppy disks in damp and
dusty locations.

■

Never store a floppy disk near a magnet or
magnetic field.

■

Do not use a pencil or an eraser on a disk or
disk label.

■

Avoid storing the floppy disks in extremely hot or cold
locations, or in locations subject to severe temperature
changes. Store at temperatures between 50º F (10ºC)
and 125ºF (52ºC).

■

Do not touch the exposed part of the disk
behind the metal shutter.

■

Never use the floppy disk drive with any liquid, metal,
or other foreign matter inside the floppy disk
drive or disk.

■

Never disassemble your floppy disk drive.

MEDIA CARE

Caring for your Media (DVD/CD/CD-R)

Media discs are precision devices and will function reli-
ably if given reasonable care.

■

Always store your media disc in its case when it
is not in use.

■

Always handle discs by the edges and avoid touching
the surface.

■

Avoid storing any media discs in extreme tempera-
tures.

■

Do not bend media discs or set heavy objects on them.

■

Do not spill liquids on media discs.

■

Do not scratch media discs.

■

Do not get dust on media discs.

■

Never write on the label surface with a ballpoint pen
or pencil. Always use a felt pen.

■

If a media disc is subjected to a sudden change in tem-
perature, cold to warm condensation may form on the
surface. Wipe the moisture off with a clean, soft, lint
free cloth and let it dry at room temperature. DO NOT
use a hair dryer or heater to dry media discs.

■

If a disc is dirty, use only a DVD/CD cleaner or wipe it
with a clean, soft, lint free cloth starting from the inner
edge and wiping to the outer edge.
