- Caring for your LifeBook Notebook
Storing your LifeBook notebook
• If storing your notebook for a month or longer, turn your LifeBook notebook off, fully charge the
battery, then remove and store all Lithium ion batteries.
• Store your notebook and batteries separately. If you store your LifeBook with a battery installed,
the battery will discharge, and battery life will be reduced. In addition, a faulty battery might
damage your LifeBook.
• Store your Fujitsu LifeBook in a cool, dry location. Temperatures should remain between 13ºF
(-25ºC) and 140ºF (60ºC).
Traveling with your LifeBook notebook
• Do not transport your notebook while it is turned on.
• It is recommended that you carry your notebook with you while traveling, rather than checking it
in as baggage.
• Always bring your System Recovery CD that came with your notebook when you travel. If you
experience system software problems while traveling, you may need it to correct any problems.
• 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.
• ALWAYS POWER OFF THE COMPUTER BEFORE TRANSPORTING AND/OR PACKAGING IT. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN THE
SYSTEM, WAIT UNTIL THE STATUS LED PANEL INDICATES POWER OFF (I.E., NO LIGHTS ARE ILLUMINATED).
• IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE UNIT MAY NOT AUTOMATICALLY GO TO POWER OFF OR HIBERNATE MODE WHEN YOU
CLOSE THE LID. THIS SITUATION MAY OCCUR DUE TO PRE-OS BOOT PASSWORD SECURITY SETTINGS OR SOME
OTHER APPLICATION RUNNING ON THE COMPUTER.
• ATTEMPTING TO TRANSPORT THE COMPUTER WHILE POWER IS ON MAY DAMAGE THE NOTEBOOK DUE TO SHOCK
OR OVERHEATING SINCE THE AIR VENTS MAY BE BLOCKED OR RESTRICTED.
