Battery Care

The Notebook PC's battery pack, like all rechargeable batteries, has a limit on the number times it can
be recharged. The battery pack's useful life will depend on your environment temperature, humidity,
and how your Notebook PC is used. It is ideal that the battery be used in a temperature range between
10˚C and 35˚C (50˚F and 95˚F). You must also take into account that the Notebook PC's internal
temperature is higher than the outside temperature. Any temperatures above or below this range will
shorten the life of the battery. But in any case, the battery pack's usage time will eventually decrease
and a new battery pack must be purchased from an authorized dealer for this Notebook PC. Because
batteries also have a shelf life, it is not recommended to buy extras for storing.
WARNING! For safety reasons, DO NOT throw the battery in fire, DO NOT
short circuit the contacts, and DO NOT disassemble the battery. If there is
any abnormal operation or damage to the battery pack caused by impact,
turn OFF the Notebook PC and contact an authorized service center.
