Use only the specified battery pack (CF-VZSU43AU) with
your CF-74. Use of battery packs other than those manu-
factured and supplied by Panasonic may present a safety
hazard (generation of heat, ignition or rupture).
z 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
repeated recharging does not restore its performance,
the battery pack should be replaced with a new one.
z When transporting a spare battery inside a package,
briefcase, etc., it is recommended that it be placed in a
plastic bag so that its contacts are protected.
z Do not touch the terminals on the battery pack. The
battery pack may no longer function properly if the
contacts are dirty or damaged.
z Do not expose the battery pack to water, or allow it to
become wet.
z 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 battery level becomes
30% to 40% and store it in a cool, dry place.
z Always power off the computer when it is not in use.
Leaving the computer on when the AC adaptor is not
connected will exhaust the remaining battery capacity.

Hard Disk Backup Function
The hard disk backup function creates a backup area (storage area) on the hard disk. This area is to back up (store) the
hard disk data or to restore the backup data to their original locations.
Using this function, you can protect your data when it is lost or corrupted by operational errors or other factors. You do
not need other media or peripheral devices to back up or restore hard disk data on this computer.
At purchase, the hard disk backup function is disabled. If you create a backup area, the hard disk backup function will
be enabled and you can back up your data.
The hard disk backup function cannot back up or restore data correctly if a hard disk problem occurs during data
backup or restoring. If an error occurs due to an unexpected malfunction, incorrect operation, or other reason while
data is being restored, the hard disk data (data before restoration) may be lost.
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. will bear no responsibility for any damages suffered by the user (including loss
of data) as a result of the use of this function.
CAUTION
z To disable the backup function after it is enabled, you have to perform the reinstallation procedure (Î page 20).
z A backup area cannot be created if the hard disk is already divided into several partitions. Return the computer to
one partition, and create the backup area.
z If the partition configuration is changed after the backup area is created (creating partitions, changing size, etc.), the
backup function will be disabled. You need to return the computer to the original condition and create the backup
area again.
z Do not use the NTFS file system compression function. It may result in insufficient capacity of the backup area.
z The hard disk backup function does not accommodate dynamic disks. Do not convert the hard disk to a dynamic
disk.
NOTE
z The backup area requires at least half of the entire hard disk capacity. If the capacity is not sufficient, the backup
area will not be created.
z When the backup area is created, the usable hard disk capacity will be less than half of the original capacity.
z The backup area cannot be accessed from Windows. The backup data cannot be copied to CD-R or other remov-
able disk media.
z When the hard disk backup function is executed, data in the backup area will be overwritten and the data previously
stored will be lost.
Creating the Backup Area
Preparation
z Prepare the following items:

Hard Disk Data Erase Utility
When disposing the computer or transferring the ownership, erase all hard disk data in order to avoid data leakage.
Even if you erase the data or initialize the hard disk using normal Windows commands, the data can be read with some
special software. Use the hard disk data erase utility to erase the data completely.
Note that transferring of the ownership without uninstalling the commercial software will be a violation of the software’s
license agreement.
The hard disk data erase utility erases the data using overwriting method. If a malfunction or other operational error
occurs during the erasing process, the data may not be completely erased. Also there may be special devices to read
the erased data. To erase highly confidential data, ask a specialized company. Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.
