Precautions
On Using the Battery Pack
❑Do not leave the battery pack in temperatures above 140°F (60°C), such as in a car parked in the sun or under direct sunlight.
❑Battery life is shorter in a cold environment. This is due to decreased battery efficiency at low temperatures.
❑Charge the batteries at temperatures between 18°F to 86°F (10°C to 30°C). Lower temperatures require a longer charging time.
❑This computer is designed to operate only with genuine Sony batteries.
❑While the battery is in use or being charged, the battery pack heats up. This is normal and is not cause for concern.
❑Keep the battery pack away from all sources of heat.
❑Keep the battery pack dry.
❑Do not open or try to disassemble the battery pack.
❑Do not expose the battery pack to any mechanical shock.
❑If you are not using the computer for an extended period of time, remove the battery pack from the computer to prevent damage to the battery.
❑If, after fully charging the battery pack, the battery power is still low, the battery pack may be reaching the end of its life and should be replaced.
❑You do not need to discharge the battery before recharging.
❑If you have not used the battery pack for a considerable amount of time, recharge the battery.
