NOTICE
 Do not place the computer near a television or radio
receiver.
 Keep the computer away from magnets. Data stored
on the hard disk may be lost.
 This computer is not intended for the display of im-
ages for use in medical diagnosis.
 This computer is not intended for a use with connec-
tion of medical equipment for the purpose of medical
diagnosis.
 Panasonic shall not be liable for loss of data or other
incidental or consequential damages resulting from
the use of this product.
 Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The
battery pack may no longer function properly if the
contacts are dirty or damaged.
 Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to
become wet.
 If the battery pack will not be used for a long period of
time (a month or more), charge or discharge (use) the
battery pack until the remaining battery level becomes
30% to 40% and store it in a cool, dry place.
 This computer prevents overcharging of the battery by
recharging only when the remaining power is less than
approx. 95% of capacity.
 The battery pack is not charged when the computer
is fi rst purchased. Be sure to charge it before using it
for the fi rst time. When the AC adaptor is connected to
the computer, charging begins automatically.
 Should the battery leak and the fl uid get into your

 The battery pack may become warm during recharg-
ing or normal use. This is completely normal.
 Recharging will not commence if internal tempera-
ture of the battery pack is outside of the allowable
temperature range (0 °C to 50 °C {32 °F to 122 °F}).
( Reference Manual "Battery Power") Once the
allowable range requirement is satisfi ed, charging
begins automatically. Note that the recharging time
varies based on the usage conditions. (Recharging
takes longer than usual when the temperature is 10 °C
{50 °F} or below.)
 If the temperature is low, the operating time is short-
ened. Only use the computer within the allowable
temperature range.
 This computer has a high temperature mode function
that prevents the degradation of the battery in high
temperature environments. (
"Battery Power") A level corresponding to a 100%
charge for high temperature mode is approximately
equivalent to an 80% charge level for normal tempera-
ture mode.
 The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount
 When transporting a spare battery inside a package,
 Always power off the computer when it is not in use.
 To minimize deterioration of the built-in bridge battery,
