It takes approximately 4.5 hours to recharge a fully de-  
pleted battery pack regardless of the system power state.  
NOTE  
Through normal use, the capacity of a battery  
pack will gradually decline. Should you notice that  
the battery does not stay charged as long as ex-  
pected, it is probably necessary to replace the bat-  
tery with a new one. Please refer to the section  
“Battery Replacement” in this chapter. A battery  
pack should recharge approximately 300 times dur-  
ing the life of the battery.  
Battery Replacement  
Note the following when replacing batteries:  
If the main battery becomes weak, the MobilePro auto-  
matically turns off. Recharge or replace the main battery  
immediately if the power goes off.  
When replacing the back-up battery, always use a  
CR2032 battery.  
!
WARNING  
Only use a CR2032 battery as your back-up battery.  
Installing another battery type can result in an ex-  
plosion or fire.  
See “Battery Precautions” later in this chapter, for  
more battery handling information.  
If you fail to replace a depleted main battery for an ex-  
tended period of time and the back-up battery is weak,  
the contents of the MobilePro memory may be lost.

If you use the MobilePro without the back-up battery in-  
stalled, MobilePro memory may be unstable. The con-  
tents of MobilePro memory may be lost if the main  
battery is removed.  
Always back up your data onto your notebook or desk-  
top computer before replacing the back-up battery.

Precautions  
Follow these precautions when using your MobilePro and  
AC adapter.  
Always plug the AC adapter cord into an easily accessi-  
ble outlet. It is important to be able to easily shut off  
power by unplugging the AC adapter if needed.  
Avoid dropping or bumping the MobilePro or the AC  
adapter.  
Do not stack heavy objects on the MobilePro or the AC  
adapter.  
When using the AC adapter, make sure the power source  
falls within the unit’s compatible range of 100–240 volts  
AC. Never use the AC adapter if the voltage falls out-  
side of this range. (Watch for this when traveling to  
other countries.)  
Turn off the MobilePro power before attaching or re-  
moving devices.  
Do not push any foreign objects into the MobilePro  
bays, connectors, and slots.  
Avoid using the unit or AC adapter for extended periods  
in direct sunlight.  
Do not use the unit in humid or dusty environments.  
Turn off the MobilePro power before cleaning the sys-  
tem.  
Avoid exposing the MobilePro or AC adapter to extreme  
changes in temperature or humidity. If it is unavoidable,  
allow your MobilePro to adjust to room temperature be-  
fore use.  
2-18 Getting Familiar with Your MobilePro 750C

When cleaning the system, use a soft, clean, dry cloth.  
Avoid wiping the display surface with abrasive material,  
including rough fabric. Do not use a cleaning solution;  
this may damage the plastic.  
If the AC adapter becomes extremely hot, unplug the  
adapter and let it cool.  
Keep the AC adapter away from the IrDA port to ensure  
stable communication/transfer operations.  
Storage Requirements  
Store the MobilePro and AC adapter in an environment that  
meets the following conditions:  
Maintain storage temperatures between 14°F and 140°F  
(–10°C and 60°C).  
!
CAUTION  
If the temperature of the MobilePro suddenly rises  
or falls (for example, when you move the system  
from a warm place to a cold place) vapor  
condenses inside the system. Turning on the unit  
under this condition can damage the internal system  
components.  
Before turning on the MobilePro, wait until the unit’s  
internal temperature equalizes with the new envi-  
ronment and any internal humidity can evaporate.  
Keep the storage area free from vibration and magnetic  
fields.  
Keep the unit and its components away from organic  
solvents or corrosive gases.  
Avoid leaving the unit and its components in direct sun-  
light or near heat sources.

Routine Cleaning  
Clean or dust your system as follows.  
!
CAUTION  
Never use harsh solutions, household cleaners, or  
spray cleaners that contain caustic materials on the  
MobilePro.  
These cleaners are usually high in alkalinity, which  
is measured in pH. Using these cleaners can cause  
the plastic surface to crack or discolor.  
Display screen — Carefully wipe the LCD screen with a  
soft cloth or a screen wipe designed for that purpose.  
Special screen wipes are available through your local  
computer dealer.  
Unit case — NEC recommends that you carefully wipe  
the case with a slightly damp, almost dry cloth.
