Using this product for long periods of time may have detrimental
health effects on the eyes or hands.
Do Not Turn the Volume Up To Loud When Using Head-
phones
Listening at high volumes that overstimulate the ear for long
periods of time may result in loss of hearing.
Do Not Connect a Telephone Line, or a Network Cable
Other Than the One Speci
fi
ed, into the LAN Port
If the LAN port is connected to a network such as the ones
listed right, a
fi
re or electric shock may result.
Networks other than 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or
10BASE-T
Phone lines (IP phone (Internet Protocol Telephone), Tele-
phone lines, internal phone lines (on-premise switches),
digital public phones, etc.)
Precautions (Battery Pack)
Do Not Use With Any Other Product
The battery pack is rechargeable and was intended for the
speci
fi
ed product. If it is used with a product other than the one
for which it was designed, electrolyte leakage, generation of
heat, ignition or rupture may result.
Do Not Charge the Battery Using Methods Other Than
Those Speci
fi
ed
If the battery is not charged using one of the speci
fi
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, Expose
It to Bumps or Shocks, Disassemble, or Modify It
Electrolyte leakage, generation of heat, ignition or rupture may
result.
If this product is subjected to a strong impact, stop using it im-
mediately.
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 necklaces or hairpins when carrying or storing.
Do Not Use This Product with a Battery Pack Other Than
the One Speci
fi
ed
Use only the speci
fi
ed battery pack ( page 10) with your prod-
uct. Use of battery packs other than those manufactured and
supplied by Panasonic may present a safety hazard (generation
of heat, ignition or rupture).
When the battery pack has become degraded, replace it
with a new one
Continued use of a damaged battery pack may result in heat
generation, ignition or battery rupture.
Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The battery
pack may no longer function properly if the contacts are dirty
or damaged.
Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to be-
come wet.
If 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.
This computer prevents overcharging of the battery by re-
charging only when the remaining power is less than approx.
95% of capacity.
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.
<Only for model with modem>
Use the Modem with a Regular Telephone Line
Connection to an internal phone line (on-premise switches) of
a company or business of
fi
ce, etc. or to a digital public phone
or use in a country or area not supported by the computer may
result in a
fi
re or electric shocks.
Do not place the computer near a television or radio receiver.
Keep the computer away from magnets. Data stored on the
hard disk may be lost.
The battery pack is not charged when the computer is
fi
rst
purchased. Be sure to charge it before using it for the
fi
rst
time. When the AC adaptor is connected to the computer,
charging begins automatically.
Should the battery leak and the
fl
uid get into your eyes, do
not rub your eyes. Immediately
fl
ush your eyes with clear
water and see a doctor for medical treatment as soon as
possible.
CAUTION:
Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced by an Incorrect Type.
Dispose of Used Batteries According to the Instructions.
58-E-1
NOTE
The battery pack may become warm during recharging or
normal use. This is completely normal.
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}).
(
Reference Manual
“Battery Power”) Once the allow-
able range requirement is satis
fi
ed, 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.)
If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened.
Only use the computer within the allowable temperature
range.
This computer has a high temperature mode function that
prevents the degradation of the battery in high temperature
environments. (
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.
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.
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.
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.
