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 oc-
currence 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 Recy-
cling 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.
