The recall applied to certain laptop references, but also to <b>batteries bought separately<\/b> or <b>replaced under after\u2011sales service<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning of <b>February<\/b>, this recall campaign was <b>reactivated<\/b> following a <b>reported fire incident in Canada<\/b>, prompting the brand to tighten its precautionary measures.<\/p>\n<h2>New models included in the campaign<\/h2>\n<p>This second recall is not limited to the references previously identified.

If you have received such a message, you are advised to <b>check your battery\u2019s reference<\/b>. If in doubt, the replacement procedure is <b>completely free of charge<\/b>, provided the battery is indeed affected.<\/p>\n<h2>Why do these batteries pose a real danger?<\/h2>\n<p>Lithium\u2011ion batteries used in modern laptops are very efficient but <b>require rigorous manufacturing<\/b>. A defect in the production process can lead to <b>thermal instability<\/b>, or even a <b>short circuit<\/b> that can cause a <b>fire that is difficult to bring under control<\/b>. This type of fire is hard to extinguish because of the <b>chemical reactions of lithium<\/b>. In addition to a manufacturing defect, <b>poor ventilation<\/b> or <b>repeated impacts<\/b> can increase the risks.<\/p>\n<p>It is therefore crucial to <b>never ignore a manufacturer\u2019s recall<\/b>, even if no symptoms have appeared yet.<\/p>\n<h2>What about the batteries currently on sale?<\/h2>\n<p>Authorised distributors ensure they only offer <b>Fujitsu batteries that fully comply<\/b> with the new standards. These batteries are <b>free from any identified risk<\/b>, allowing customers to order with complete confidence. Users can therefore replace their battery <b>without compromising the safety<\/b> of their equipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A recall procedure relaunched after new incidents In August 2015, the brand Fujitsu announced a global recall campaign covering several batteries used in its professional laptop ranges.
