Precautions (Battery Pack)
Do Not Use with Any Other Product
The.battery.pack.is.rechargeable.and.was.intended.for.the.
specified.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 Specified
If.the.battery.is.not.charged.using.one.of.the.specified.
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.
immediately.
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 Specified
Use.only.the.specified.battery.pack.(CF-VZSU53AW).with.
your.product..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 Deteriorated, Replace It With
a New One
Continued.use.of.a.damaged.battery.pack.may.result.in.heat.
generation,.ignition.or.battery.rupture.
l. Do.not.touch.the.terminals.on.the.battery.pack..The.
battery.pack.may.no.longer.function.properly.if.the.
contacts.are.dirty.or.damaged.
l. Do.not.expose.the.battery.pack.to.water,.or.allow.it.to.
become.wet.
l. 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.
l. This.computer.prevents.overcharging.of.the.battery.by.
recharging.only.when.the.remaining.power.is.less.than.
approx..95%.of.capacity.
l. The.battery.pack.is.not.charged.when.the.computer.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.
l. Should.the.battery.leak.and.the.fluid.get.into.your.eyes,.
do.not.rub.your.eyes..Immediately.flush.your.eyes.with.
clear.water.and.see.a.doctor.for.medical.treatment.as.
soon.as.possible.

NOTE
l. The.battery.pack.may.become.warm.during.
recharging.or.normal.use..This.is.completely.normal.
l. Recharging.will.not.commence.if.internal.temperature.
of.the.battery.pack.is.outside.of.the.allowable.
temperature.range.(0.°C.to.50.°C)...
(è. .Reference Manual."Battery.Power").Once.the.
allowable.range.requirement.is.satisfied,.charging.
begins.automatically..Note.that.the.recharging.time.
varies.based.on.the.usage.conditions..(Recharging.
takes.longer.than.usual.when.the.temperature.is.
10.°C.or.below.)
l. In.high-temperature.environments,.the.battery.takes.
longer.to.fully.recharge.and.the.operating.time.is.
shorter..Only.use.the.computer.within.the.allowable.
temperature.range.
l. This.computer.has.a.high.temperature.mode.function.
that.prevents.the.degradation.of.the.battery.in.high.
temperature.environments..(è.
"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.
l. 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.
l. When.transporting.a.spare.battery.inside.a.package,.
briefcase,.etc.,.it.is.recommended.that.it.be.placed.in.
a.plastic.bag.so.that.its.contacts.are.protected.
l. 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.
CAUTION:
Risk.of.Explosion.if.Battery.is.replaced.by.an.Incorrect.
Type.
Dispose.of.Used.Batteries.According.to.the.Instructions.
