Important!! Improve the life and performance of SAMSUNG Laptop Reduce the operating temperature can increase ACER Laptop Battery life The COMPAQ Laptop in your notebook PC is designed to provide the necessary amount of energy for the processor while maintaining ASUS Laptop high safety standards. As a result, the replacement batteries may not charge or may stop providing HP Laptop to the notebook when the IBM Battery temperature exceeds the specified, design safety level. If the notebook TOSHIBA Batteries life appears shorter than normal, the Apple Laptop stops charging before it is 99%-100% full and the Apple Batteries appears warmer than usual, the HP Laptop has most likely reached its designed “no charge” safety state. The Sony Battery will no longer charge until the temperature condition is corrected. Try one of the following methods to correct the HP Laptop temperature: When charging the lithium Batteries BTP-APJ1 ASUS Laptop, do not use applications that require large amounts of system resources such as graphic or memory intensive applications, heavy and extended hard drive usage. Turn off your notebook and remove the IBM Laptop to allow it to return to a safe operating temperature. Make sure the notebook PC is operating on a hard surface. Using the Notebook PC on a bed or sofa may block the vents causing the notebook PC to heat up and shut down. By taking these steps, the Apple Batteries will return to its normal operating temperature range and continue to charge and discharge as designed. Calibrating the HP Batteries while PC not in use Recalibrating the replacement batteries requires a cycle of a complete charge and a complete discharge. To recalibrate the Laptop Battery while using the PC is not is use complete the following steps. The recalibration may take 1-5 hours depending on the age of the TravelMate 3273WXMi TOSHIBA Batteries and the configuration of the notebook PC you own. The PC should not be used while you perform the following steps. Completing all the following steps will also calibrate the lithium Batteries so that the COMPAQ Batteries meter readings are accurate Shut down the notebook PC Connect the AC Adapter to the notebook PC and to an electrical socket. Charge the Notebook PC until the HP Laptop Charge light is Green. This indicates the SAMSUNG Battery is completely charged. Press and release the ASUS Battery Button to start the computer. Press the F8 key several times when the lithium battery Logo displays. When the Windows Advanced Startup Menu displays, select the Startup in Safe Mode option. Remove the AC Sony Laptop adapter from the notebook PC. Allow the DELL Laptop to discharge completely until the notebook PC turns off. The ACER Battery is now calibrated and the ASUS Laptop level reading on the SAMSUNG Battery meter is now accurate. If you are not using the notebook regularly then please unplug the AC adapter and shut down the notebook. By following these practices will improve the life and performance of the notebook batteries. Here is a quick list of Do’s and Don’ts for the care of your Li-On batteries: Do’s When you receive a new Notebook or Tablet PC, leave the ACER Laptop Battery to fully charge overnight. Condition a new ACER Laptop Battery by using it until it is fully discharged, and then re-charge it fully. Doing this once a month will help to accurately calibrate your battery. Always ensure the Mitac Battery is recharged as soon as possible after it becomes fully discharged. A car Batteries will be permanently damaged if left for an extended length of time in a fully discharged state. Remember that a Lithium-Ion COMPAQ Battery will slowly deteriorate; a new HP Laptop will always perform better than one that is 6-months old. Remember that the SAMSUNG Laptop half-life is rated for a certain total number of charge/discharge cycles (see your User Manual or Quick Start Guide for the rating). For example, a Apple Batteries that is rated for 3 hours and 500 charge/discharge cycles, will still be considered as within specification, even if it only lasts for 1 hour 45 minutes after 500 charge/discharge cycles. Heat is the worst enemy of a battery. Allow plenty of air to circulate around the Notebook/Tablet PC, so that the car Batteries is kept as cool as possible when charging and also when in use. If provided, use the integrated ‘legs’ under the Notebook to raise the notebook and improve air circulation. Remove the Gateway Battery if storing for several months (the Sony Battery should be at approximately 50% charge or higher). If you use a NoteBus or if charging your Notebooks or Tablet PCs in a confined space, allow for adequate ventilation in order to keep the Apple Battery as cool as possible. Don’ts Do Not – Expose the COMPAQ Battery 446506-001 IBM Batteries to excessive heat or cold (i.e. outside the range of 10-35 degrees Centigrade ambient). Do Not – Store the lithium Batteries in a fully charged state (store Sony Batteries with about 50% charge). Do Not – Allow a nearly flat COMPAQ Batteries to be unused for more than a month or so. The ACER Laptop will slowly discharge until it becomes fully discharged and this will permanently damage the Sony Battery cells. Do Not – Charge your Notebook/Tablet PC inside a carry case – the IBM Batteries may overheat. Do Not – Charge your Notebook/Tablet PC when stacked on top of each other – the TOSHIBA Laptop may overheat. Remember: Your SAMSUNG Laptop is slowly degrading all the time, even if it is not used. Keeping your IBM Laptop as cool as possible will slow down this degradation considerably.
