The full performance of a new battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge
and discharge cycles. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but
it will eventually wear out. When the operation time becomes noticeably shorter than
normal, refer to qualified service personnel. Use only the approved batteries, and
recharge your battery only with the approved chargers designated for this device.
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged.
The capacity and lifetime of the battery will be reduced if the battery is left in hot or cold
places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter. Always try to keep the battery
between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A device with a hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery performance is especially
limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may also explode if
damaged. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
- Note: Please refer to www.acer.com for battery shipping documents.
- Warning! Batteries may explode if not handled properly. Do not disassemble or
dispose of them in fire. Keep them away from children. Follow local regulations
when disposing of used batteries.
