## Limiting the charge amount [Battery Care]

You can use the [Battery Care] mode to reduce the capacity decrement caused by charge and discharge cycles and prevent shortening the battery life.

1. From the Home menu, select [Settings] [Common Settings] [Battery Care] desired setting type.

Note

- When [Battery Care] is set to [On], the maximum recharge capacity is limited to 90%. As a result, the battery life between charges is shortened by about 10%.

- In the [Battery Care] mode, the first bar of the battery indicator will disappear somewhat quicker than normal. This is a result of stopping recharging the battery before becoming fully charged (in order to extend the battery lifespan) and is not a malfunction.
