Recycling your Battery

Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a shorter amount of time; this is
a natural occurrence for all batteries. When this occurs, you may want to replace the battery with a fresh one*. If you
replace it, it is important that you dispose of the old battery properly because batteries contain materials that could
cause environmental damage if disposed of improperly.
Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the services of the Rechargeable Battery
Recycling Corporation (RBRC)**, a non-profit public service organization dedicated to protecting our environment
by recycling old batteries at no cost to you. RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousands of locations throughout
the United States and Canada. To find the location nearest you, go to www.RBRC.org or call 1-800-822-8837.
If there are no convenient RBRC locations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer Education Initiative
website (http://EIAE.org/) and search for a convenient disposal location. Remember – protecting the
environment is a cooperative effort, and you should make every effort to protect it for current and future
generations.
* To order a new battery for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site
at www.shopfujitsu.com in the US or www.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks in Canada.
** RBRC is an independent third party to which Fujitsu provides funding for battery recycling; RBRC is in
no way affiliated with Fujitsu.
