3. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which

may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on

the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in re-

sponse to an incoming call. In most, but not all area, the sum

of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the

number of devices that may be connected to a line, as deter-

mined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone com-

pany.

4. If your telephone equipment cause harm to the telephone net-

work, the telephone company will notify you in advice that

Precautions (Battery Pack)

Care should be exercised with regard to the following in or-

der to avoid the possibility of overheating, fire or damage.

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 50% 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 ap-

prox. 95% of capacity.

Avoid Heat

Do not throw the battery pack into a fire or ex-

pose it to excessive heat.

Keep Articles Away

Do not place the battery pack together with articles

such as necklaces or hairpins when carrying or stor-

ing.

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, disassemble,

or modify it.

Do Not Short

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

NOTE

tacts.

The battery pack may become warm during recharging

or normal use. This is completely normal.

Recharging will not commence outside of the allowable

temperature range (0 °C to 50 °C {32°F to 122 °F})

"Battery Power". Once the allowable range

requirement is satisfied, charging begins automatically.

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 below.)

If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened.

Only use the computer within the allowable temperature

range.

Avoid Extreme Heat, Cold and Direct Sunlight

Do not charge, use or leave the battery pack for ex-

tended periods where it will be exposed to direct

sunlight, in a hot place (in an automobile on a sunny

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

Do Not Use With Any Other Computer

The battery pack is rechargeable and was intended

for the specified computer or charger. Do not use it

with a computer other than the one for which it was

designed.

This computer has a high temperature mode function that

prevents the degradation of the battery in high temperature

environments. If the high temperature mode is enabled in

Do Not Put into a Microwave

Do not put the battery pack into a microwave oven

or a pressurized chamber.

the Setup Utility (

“Setup Utility”), a level of

100% in the [High Temperature] mode is about a level

of 80% in the [Normal Temperature] mode.

Stop Using

Should the battery emit an abnormal odor, become

hot to the touch, become discolored, change shape,

or become in any way different from normal, remove

it from the computer or charger and stop using it.

The battery pack is a consumable item. If the amount of

time the computer can be run off a particular battery pack

becomes dramatically shorter and repeated recharging

do not restore its performance, the battery pack should

be replaced with a new one.

When a spare battery pack is to be carried in a pocket or

bag, it is recommended that it be placed in a plastic bag

so that its contacts are protected.

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 become

wet.

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.

When Using Peripheral Devices

Pay strict attention to the following points to avoid damage to the computer, peripheral devices, cables, etc. Also,

in addition to following this manual, carefully read the instruction manuals for the peripheral devices being used.

Connect the devices properly, paying close attention to the condition and position of the connectors.

If a connection cannot be made easily, do not apply undue force; check once more to confirm the condi-

tion and position of the connector (alignment of pins, etc.) .

If the connector has holding screws, fasten the screws firmly.

Do not carry the computer with cables attached, and do not pull on the cables forcefully.

To protect the data on your floppy disks or to prevent a floppy disk from becoming stuck in your

computer, avoid the following:

• Sliding the shutter on the floppy disk manually.

• Exposing the floppy disk to a magnetic field.

• Storing the floppy disk in locations prone to high temperatures, low pitched noise, dampness, or dust.

• Applying more than one label on the floppy disk.

Confirm the contents of a floppy disk before formatting it.

Confirm that no important data is on the floppy disk, because all data on the floppy disk will be erased.

Use the write-protect tab.

This is a must for preserving impor-

tant data. This prevents your data

Write-protect Tab

from being erased or overwritten.

Write Enable

Write Disable

Computer Viruses

Users are advised to purchase the latest versions of virus protection software and use them regularly.

We recommend you run the software:

• When booting your computer.

• After receiving data.

We recommend that you check data received on disks or from external sources, such as data downloaded

from the Internet, e-mail, etc. (For compressed files, uncompress them before running a check).

A Characteristic of Transflective Display (Only for models with 12.1 type LCD)

Immediately after the computer is turned off or enters the standby mode, you may notice a black pattern

appearing temporarily at the edges of the display. This is a characteristic of the transflective display and is

not a malfunction.

When Disposing of or Transferring Ownership of This Device

When disposing of or transferring ownership of this device, completely erase all data on the hard disk in order

to prevent the theft of hard disk data. Even if you delete data or initialize the hard disk through normal Win-

dows commands, data can still be read using special software. In order to erase all data, either have the data

erased by a specialist (at a charge) or use special software (sold separately).

Also note that transferring ownership of this device without deleting software from the hard disk may

violate software user’s licenses.

CAUTION

Under the condition that both the AC adaptor and the port replicator are not

connected, the power will not go on if the display is closed.

After confirming that the power indicator has turned on, avoid the following

until Windows has completed loading.

• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.

• Touching the power switch.

• Performing any keyboard, touch pad, touchscreen (only for models with

touchscreen), or external mouse operations.

• Closing the display.

Once the computer is powered off, you must wait at least ten seconds before

powering it on again.

Power Switch

When the computer is turned on in a low-temperature environment, start-up

may take longer than usual, in order to ensure stable operation of the computer’s

systems (a few minutes or more).

When the CPU temperature rises, the computer may not power on to prevent

the CPU from overheating. Should this happen, allow the computer to cool

down then switch the power on again.

If the computer still does not power on, contact Panasonic Technical Support.

NOTE

The power saving function is factory set, so if there is no input from a key, the touch

pad, the touchscreen (only for models with touchscreen) or an external mouse (when

one is connected) for a certain interval of time, the power to the LCD and hard disk may

be turned off. The LCD will resume operation when the touch pad, the touchscreen

(only for models with touchscreen) or an external mouse (when one is connected) is

used or a key is pressed.

The power to the LCD may be turned off even when an application software is being

installed. In this case, because it is conceivable that a selection dialog box will be

shown, do not press Space or Enter to attempt to resume from this condition

as doing so may trigger a selection, but instead, press a key unrelated to the direct

triggering of a selection, like Ctrl .

In addition, when the computer is left alone, it automatically enters the standby or hiber-

nation mode (

“Standby/Hibernation Functions”). The computer will re-

sume by rotating the power switch.

A 16M color display is achieved by using the dithering function. Windows XP : 256 color depth and the resolution of 640x480 are not

supported.

The TransflectiveLCD improves display under strong light by using the reflection of light as illumi-

Sensor

nation in addition to the same backlight illumination as a general LCD.

The light sensor works to sense strong light so that the TransflectiveLCD will not require backlight

illumination, and to power off the backlight illumination to conserve energy.

Maximum resolution depends on the specifications of the external display. Windows XP : 256 color depth and the resolution of 640x480 are

not supported.

1GB = 10⁹bytes

Only a RAM card designed for PC133 can be added.
