Fujitsu FPCR35161, FPCR47651, AH532 manual Caring for your Batteries, Increasing Battery Life

•It is recommended that you carry your notebook with you while traveling, rather than checking it in as baggage.

•Never put your notebook through a metal detector. Have your notebook hand-inspected by security personnel. You can however, put your notebook through a properly tuned X-ray machine. To avoid problems, place your notebook close to the entrance of the machine and remove it as soon as possible or have your notebook hand- inspected by security personnel. Security officials may require you to turn your notebook on, so make sure you have a charged battery on hand.

Caring for your Batteries

•Always handle batteries carefully.

•Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do not touch both terminals with a metal object). Do not carry loose 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 incinerate the battery.

•Recharge batteries only as described in this manual and only in ventilated areas.

•Do not leave batteries in hot locations for more than a day or two; intense heat can shorten the battery life.

•Do not leave a battery in storage for longer than 6 months without recharging it.

Increasing Battery Life

•Power your LIFEBOOK notebook through the AC or optional auto/airline adapter whenever possible.

•If your notebook is running on battery power all day, connect it to the AC adapter overnight.

•Keep brightness to the lowest level comfortable.

•Turn off the Wireless LAN/Bluetooth devices when not in use by clicking the [Fn]+[F5] key combination.

•Set the power management for maximum battery life.

•Put your notebook in Standby mode when it is turned on and you are not actually using it.

•Limit your media drive access.

•Disable the Media Player auto insert notification function.

•Always use fully charged batteries.
