6. Conserve battery charge when possible to maximize battery life during daily use.
1. Partial discharge/charge cycles are preferred compared to draining the battery completely and
recharging.
7. Avoid prolonged exposure to temperature extremes.
1. Cold temperature extremes may result in reduced available energy from the battery. This energy is
recoverable as the battery warms to a nominal temperature of 68° F (20°C).
2. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can result in a permanent reduction in available energy from
the battery.
3. Battery charging is disabled below 32° F (0°C) and above 113° F (45°C) to protect the lithium ion cells
in the battery.
8.
Power Down:
Exit all applications, and shutdown or reboot at the end of each work day. If the computer is
left powered overnight, ensure that all applications are closed and perform a restart prior to beginning daily
operations.
1. This practice ensures that all applications (and system resources used by those applications) are
reinitialized each work day.
2. Unless an application is specifically designed for 24/7 operation, a daily practice of restarting (resetting)
an application can minimize the potential for a wide variety of operational anomalies often perceived as
a hardware failure.
