Precautions (Battery Pack)

Care should be exercised with regard to the following in

order to avoid the possibility of overheating, fire or dam-

age.

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 be-

come 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 re-

charging only when the remaining power is less than approx.

95% of capacity.

Avoid Heat

Do not throw the battery pack into a fire or

expose it to excessive heat.

Keep Articles Away

Do not place the battery pack together with ar-

ticles such as necklaces or hairpins when carry-

ing or storing.

The battery pack is not charged when the computer is first

purchased. Be sure to charge it before using it for the first

time. When the AC adaptor is connected to the computer,

charging begins automatically.

Should the battery leak and the fluid get into your eyes, do

not rub your eyes. Immediately flush your eyes with clear

water and see a doctor for medical treatment as soon as pos-

sible.

Do Not Disassemble

Do not insert sharp objects into the battery pack,

expose it to bumps or shocks, deform, disas-

semble, or modify it.

Do Not Short

Do not short the positive (+) and negative (-)

contacts.

NOTE

Avoid Extreme Heat, Cold and Direct Sun-

light

The battery pack may become warm during recharging

or normal use. This is completely normal.

Recharging will not commence outside of the allow-

able temperature range (0 °C to 55 °C {32 °F to 131

Do not charge, use or leave the battery pack for

extended periods where it will be exposed to di-

rect sunlight, in a hot place (in a car on a sunny

day, for example), or in a cold place.

°F}). (

“Battery Power”) Once the allowable

range requirement is satisfied, charging begins auto-

matically. 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 less.)

If the temperature is low, the operating time is short-

ened. Only use the computer within the allowable tem-

perature range.

The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount

of time the computer can be run by using a particular

battery pack becomes dramatically shorter and repeated

recharging does not restore its performance, the battery

pack should be replaced with a new one.

Do Not Use With Any Other Computer

The battery pack is rechargeable and was in-

tended for the specified computer. Do not use it

with a computer other than the one for which it

was designed.

Do not use this computer with a battery pack

other than the one specified (the one included

with the computer or the specified battery

pack sold separately)

Do Not Put into a Microwave

Do not put the battery pack into a microwave

oven or a pressurized chamber.

When transporting a spare battery inside a package,

briefcase, etc., it is recommended that it be placed in a

plastic bag so that its contacts are protected.

Always power off the computer when it is not in use.

Leaving the computer on when the AC adaptor is not

connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity.

Stop Using

Should the battery emit an abnormal odor, be-

come hot to the touch, become discolored,

change shape, or become in any way different

from normal, remove it from the computer and

stop using it.

some programs and functions cannot be operated.

To use the program or to share files or printers:

You can use programs or other functions without the effects of the Windows Firewall by

registering them as an exception in the Windows Firewall settings (it is not necessary to

disable the Windows Firewall).

Note, however, that if a program is registered as an exception, there is a risk of damage

from viruses or other attacks. Before registering a program as an exception, confirm the

program’s safety with the manufacturer or other reliable source.

1 Select [start] - [Control Panel] - [Security Center] - [Windows Firewall].

2 Select [Exceptions].

3 To register a network game or other programs as an exception:

Is it necessary to enable the

Windows Firewall?

The Windows Firewall is a security function designed to protect your computer from

unauthorized access via the Internet and other external networks.

The firewall regulates the data exchanged between the computer and the external network,

so that only approved data can pass through. We recommend that you use your computer

with the Firewall enabled to minimize damage from viruses and other malicious attacks.

When installing additional commercially available firewall software, we recommend that

you disable the Windows Firewall settings, as the new software may interfere with the

Windows Firewall functions.

For details, refer to the manual accompanying the firewall software to be installed.

Hard Disk Backup Function

The hard disk backup function creates a backup area (storage area) on the hard disk. This area is to back up (store) hard disk

contents or restore backed up contents to their original locations.

By backing up the data on your hard disk to a backup area, you can protect your data from loss or damage resulting from operational

errors or other factors. Also, you can back up or restore hard disk contents using this computer alone, without having to use other

media or peripheral devices.

At the time of purchase, the hard disk backup function is disabled. If you follow the procedure below to create a backup area, the

hard disk backup function will be enabled, and you will be able to back up your data. Note, that once the backup function has been

enabled, you will have to perform the reinstallation procedure to disable it again (

page 38).

The hard disk backup function cannot back up or restore data properly if there is a problem with the hard disk when the data is

backed up or restored. Note that if an error occurs while data is being restored, whether as a result of an unexpected malfunction,

incorrect operation, or other reason, the data in the hard disk (data before restoration) may be lost.

Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. will bear no responsibility for any damages suffered by the user (including loss of data)

as a result of the use of this function.

Preparing

You will need the Product Recovery DVD-ROM (included).

Before Using a Hard Disk Backup Function

Disconnect or remove all peripheral devices, SD memory cards, and MultiMedia Cards. Take

care to disconnect the USB floppy disk drive, as the backup area may not be created properly

while these devices are connected.

Be sure the AC adaptor is connected to the computer.

A backup area cannot be created if the hard disk is already divided into several partitions. Return

the computer to its condition at the time of purchase (one partition only), and create the backup

area.

To divide the partition, make the selection when the backup area is created (

page 44 step 7).

If the partition configuration is changed (partitions created, size changed, etc.) after the backup

area has been created, it will no longer be possible to execute the backup function. To change the

configuration, it is necessary to return the computer to its condition at the time of purchase, and

then create the backup area again.

The hard disk backup function will only work for the internal hard disk. This function does not

work with an external hard disk.

Backup and restore functions will not operate if the hard disk has been damaged.

Do not use the NTFS file system compression function, as this may result in insufficient capacity

of the backup area.

If the hard disk malfunction occurs, it will be impossible to read the data stored hard disk. We

recommend that you also back up important data to a location other than the hard disk (an external

hard disk or other media).

Execute a disk error check using the following procedure.

1 Display the [Local Disk(C:) properties].

Select [Local Disk(C:)] with the right button in [start] - [My Computer], and select [Properties].

2 Select [Check Now] from [Tools].

3 In [Check Disk], select [Start] without adding a check mark beside any of the items.

If a message is displayed indicating that there is an error in the disk, display [Check Disk], and

add a check mark for [Automatically fix file system errors] and [Scan for and attempt recovery

of bad sectors], select [Start], and check for disk errors again.

The hard disk backup function does not accommodate dynamic disks. Do not convert the hard

disk to a dynamic disk.

NOTE

Regarding backup area

• Requires availability of at least half of the entire hard disk. Without sufficient space

available, the backup area cannot be created.

• When the backup area is created, the usable hard disk capacity will be reduced to less

than half.

• The backup area cannot be accessed from Windows. For this reason, backed up data

cannot be copied to CD-R or other removable disk media.

• When the hard disk backup function is executed, data in the backup area will be over-

written. If newly created or edited data is backed up later, data stored previously

in the backup area will be lost.
