Panasonic FZ-A2 Serie Instructions D'utilisation page 7

NOTE
l The battery pack may become warm dur-
ing recharging or normal use. This is com-
pletely normal.
l Recharging will not commence if internal
temperature of the battery pack is outside
of the allowable temperature range (0 °C
to 50 °C ). (
Operating Instructions -
Reference Manual "Battery Power") Once
the allowable range requirement is satis-
fied, 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 or below.)
l If the temperature is low, the operating
time is shortened. Only use the computer
within the allowable temperature range.
l This computer has a high temperature
mode function that prevents the degrada-
tion of the battery in high temperature envi-
ronments. (
Reference Manual "Battery Power") A level
corresponding to a 100% charge for high
temperature mode is approximately equiv-
alent to an 80% charge level for normal
temperature mode.
l 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 re-
peated recharging does not restore its
performance, the battery pack should be
replaced with a new one.
l When transporting a spare battery inside a
package, briefcase, etc., it is recommend-
ed that it be placed in a plastic bag so that
its contacts are protected.
l Always power off the computer when it is
not in use. Leaving the computer on when
the AC adaptor is not connected will ex-
haust the remaining battery capacity.
l <Only for model with Built-in Bridge Bat-
tery>
To minimize deterioration of the built-in
bridge battery, connect the computer to the
AC adaptor and recharge it for approxi-
mately 2 hours about once every year.
