Lithium Ion Battery - Fujitsu Lifebook P1510 User Manual

Lithium ion Battery

Your LifeBook P Series notebook has a
Lithium ion battery that provides power for
operating your notebook when no external
power source is available. The battery is
durable and long lasting, but should not be
exposed to extreme temperatures, high
voltages, chemicals or other hazards.
The Lithium ion battery operating time may
become shorter if it is used under the
following conditions:
■
When used at temperatures lower than
41° F (5° C) or higher than 95° F (35° C).
Extreme temperatures not only reduce
charging efficiency, but can also cause
battery deterioration. The Charging icon
on the Status Indicator panel will flash
when you try to charge a battery that is
outside its operating temperature range.
■ When using a high current device such
as a modem, CD-ROM drive, or hard
drive, using the AC adapter will conserve
your battery life.
■ Do not leave a faulty battery in
your notebook. It may damage
your AC adapter, or your
notebook itself. It may also
prevent operation of your
notebook by draining all
available current into the bad
battery.
■ Under federal, state, or local
law it may be illegal to dispose
of batteries by putting them in
the trash. Please take care of
our environment and dispose
of batteries properly.
User-Installable Features
Actual battery life will vary
based on screen brightness,
applications, features, power
management settings, battery
condition and other customer
preferences.
CD-ROM drive or hard drive
usage may also have a
significant impact on battery life.
The battery charging capacity is
reduced as the battery ages. If
your battery is running low
quickly, you should replace it
with a new one.
