When not plugged into a mains socket, the notebook runs on its built-in battery. You
can increase the life of the battery by caring for the battery properly. The average
battery life is around 500 charge/discharge cycles.
You can extend the battery life by taking advantage of the available energy saving functions.

Charging, caring for and maintaining the battery

Battery Battery
The notebook's rechargeable battery can only be charged when the ambient temperature
is between 5 °C / 41 °F and max. 35 °C / 95 °F.
You can charge the battery by connecting the notebook to the mains adapter
(see "Mains adapter connecting", Page
Please note that the battery will not be charged if the battery status is between
90% and 100%. If the battery status is less than 90% and the mains adapter is
connected, the battery will be charged to 100%.
When the battery state of charge is low, a message from the operating system appears.
If you do not connect the mains adapter within about 5 minutes of the message
appearing, your notebook will automatically switch off.
Monitoring the battery charging level
Batterystatusmeter Battery
Windows also has a "Battery status meter" in the taskbar for monitoring the battery capacity. When
you place the mouse pointer on the battery symbol, the system displays the battery status.
Battery storage
Chargingcapacity,battery Self-discharge,battery Battery Battery
Store battery packs in a dry environment at a temperature between 0 °C / 32 °F and 30 °C / 86 °F.
The lower the temperature at which the batteries are stored, the lower the rate of self-discharge.
If you will be storing batteries for a longer period (more than two months),
the battery charge level should be approx. 30 %. To prevent exhaustive
discharge which would permanently damage the battery, check the level
of charge of the battery at regular intervals.

Removing and installing the battery

Only use batteries approved by Fujitsu for your notebook.
Never use force when fitting or removing a battery.
Make sure that no foreign bodies get into the battery connections.
Never store a battery for long periods in the discharged state. This
can make it impossible to recharge.
