Replacing the Battery Pack

A
B
The battery pack is a consumable item and therefore will require replacement (CF-
VZSU26U). If the battery operation time becomes noticeably short, and if performance is not
recovered even after executing Battery Recalibration, we recommend that the battery be
replaced.
CAUTION
Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack and the computer. The battery pack
may no longer function properly if the contacts are dirty or damaged. Also, the
computer may not operate properly.
The battery pack is not charged when it is first purchased. Be sure to charge it before
using it for the first time. When the AC adaptor is connected to the computer,
charging begins automatically.
Use only the specified battery pack (CF-VZSU26U) with your computer.
In the standby mode, do not remove/change the battery pack. Removing the pack in
the standby mode will erase your data and may damage the computer.
