charger and discontinue use.
e 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 be-
come wet.
© 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 buttery level becomes 30% to 40% 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 approx.
95% of capacity,
e The battery pack is not charged when the computer 1s first
purchased. Be sure to charge it before using it for the first
time. When the AC adapter is connected to the computer,
charging begins automatically.

(NOTE) \
© 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 45 °C (32°F to 113 °F)) +
Reference "Battery Power". Once the allowable range re-
quirement is satisfied, charging begins automatically. Note
that the recharging time vanes based on the usage condi-
tions. (Recharging takes longer than usual when the tem-
perature is 10 °C (50 °F) or less.)
e If the temperature is low, the operating time is shortened. Only
use the computer within the allowable temperature range.
® Although the battery has remaining capacity, the battery
indicator may light up red or emit a beep. This indicates a
significant rise in the temperature (60 °C (140 °F) or more)
of the battery pack cy Aeferente "Battery Power". This is
typically caused by the fact that the battery pack has been
delivering a high level of power because the computer has
been used with the display at the brightest setting and with
the power-saving function off.
To protect the battery pack from increases in temperature,
the brightness of the display automatically decreases, al-
lowing the temperature of the battery to drop. In this con-
dition, if the computer is left as 1s, it will automatically go
off after about three minutes have elapsed. Within that
period, therefore, be sure to connect the AC adapter or
shut the computer OFF after saving any open data (if nec-

Power Indicator A NOTE ) ~
Windows 95
The power saving function is factory set, so If there is no input from a key, the touch
pad, or the external mouse for two minutes, the LCD is powered off (ECO mode).
The LCD will resume operation when the touch pad or the external mouse is used or
a key is pressed.
The computer may enter the ECO mode while Windows 1s setting up or even when
an application software 1s being installed. In this case, because it is conceivable
that a selection dialog box will be shown, for resuming from the ECO mode, do not
press (Enter ) which may trigger a selection, instead. press a key unrelated to the
direct triggering of a selection, like the (Shift) key.
- Windows 98:
The power saving mode ([Power Scheme] in [Control Panel] - [Power Management]) is
factory set, so if there 1s no input from a key, the touch pad, or an external mouse (when one
is connected) for a certain interval of time, the power to the LCD is cut, and the power to
the hard disk 1s shut off. In addition, when the computer is left alone, it automatically
enters the suspend* mode (Gr Référence "Suspend/Hibernation Functions").
The LCD will resume operation when the touch pad is used or a key, or an external
mouse Is pressed.
The power to the LCD may be turned off while Windows is setting up or 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 the key 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 the key.

List of Error Codes
The following 1s a list of the messages that BIOS can display. Most of them occur during POST. Some of them
display information about a hardware device, e.g.. the amount of memory installed. Others may indicate a prob-
lem with a device, such as the way it has been configured. Following the list are explanations of the messages and
remedies for reported problems.
If your system displays one of except the messages marked below with an asterisk (*), write down the message and
contact Panasonic Technical Support. If your system fails after you make changes in the Setup menus, reset the
computer, enter Setup and install Setup defaults or correct the error,

0280* Previous boot incomplete - Default configuration used
Previous POST did not complete successfully. POST loads default values and offers to run Setup. If the failure was
caused by incorrect values and they are not corrected, the next boot will likely fail. On systems with control of wait
states, improper Setup settings can also terminate POST and cause this error on the next boot. Run Setup and verify
that the wait-state configuration is correct. This error is cleared the next time the system is booted.
