BATTERIES

Caring for your Batteries
Always handle batteries carefully.
I
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do
I
not touch both terminals with a metal object). Do not
carry lose batteries in a pocket or purse where they
may mix with coins, keys, or other metal objects.
Doing so may cause an explosion or fire.
Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate or incin-
I
erate the battery.
Recharge batteries only as described in this manual
I
and only in ventilated areas.
Do not leave batteries in hot locations for more than a
I
day or two. Intense heat can shorten battery life.
Do not leave a battery in storage for longer than 6
I
months without recharging it.
Increasing Battery Life
Power your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook through the
I
AC or optional auto/airline adapter whenever possible.
If your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook is running on bat-
I
tery power all day, connect it to the AC adapter over-
night to recharge the battery.
Keep brightness to the lowest level comfortable.
I
Set the power management for maximum battery life.
I
Put your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook in Suspend mode
I

FLOPPY DISKS

I

I
magnetic field.
Do not use a pencil or an eraser on a disk or disk label.
I

I
locations, or in locations subject to severe temperature
changes. Store at temperatures between 50º F (10ºC)
and 125ºF (52ºC).

I
metal shutter.

MEDIA CARE

Caring for your Media (DVD/CD/CD-R)
Media discs are precision devices and will function reli-
ably if given reasonable care.
Always store your media disc in its case when it is not
I
in use.
Always handle discs by the edges and avoid touching
I
the surface.
Avoid storing any media discs in extreme tempera-
I
tures.
Do not bend media discs or set heavy objects on them.
I
Do not spill liquids on media discs.
I
Do not scratch media discs.
I
Do not put a label on media discs.
I
Do not get dust on media discs.
I
Never write on the label surface with a ballpoint pen
I
or pencil. Always use a felt pen.
If a media disc is subjected to a sudden change in tem-
I
perature, cold to warm condensation may form on the
surface. Wipe the moisture off with a clean, soft, lint
free cloth and let it dry at room temperature. DO NOT
use a hair dryer or heater to dry media discs.
If a disc is dirty, use only a DVD/CD cleaner or wipe it
I
with a clean, soft, lint free cloth starting from the inner
edge and wiping to the outer edge.
