Removing or Replacing the Battery

PowerBook batteries are removed in the same way that expansion bay modules are. To
remove or replace the battery, follow these steps:

1

Place your PowerBook on a hard, flat surface.

2

Save your work and then shut down the computer, put it to sleep, or plug in the power
adapter.

3

Pull the expansion bay release lever to eject the PowerBook battery.

4

Gently slide the battery out of the expansion bay.

5

Push the charged battery into the expansion bay to lock it into place.

It’s a good idea to plug in the power adapter in case the battery is not fully charged.

Important

Batteries contain chemicals, some of which may be harmful to the

environment. Please dispose of used batteries according to your local environmental
guidelines.
