Changing the main battery
When your battery power has run out of power, you have two
options: plug in the AC Adapter or install a fresh main
battery.
Never short circuit the battery pack by either accidentally or
intentionally bringing the battery terminals in contact with another
conductive object. This could cause serious injury or fire, and could
also damage the battery pack.
Never expose a battery pack to abnormal shock, vibration or
pressure. The battery pack's internal protective device could fail,
causing it to overheat or ignite resulting in caustic liquid leakage, or
explosion or fire, possibly resulting in death or serious injury.
If your battery discharges fully, your information will be lost. Be sure
to save your work often.
Removing the battery from the computer
1 Save your work.
2 Shut down and turn off the computer.
3 Remove all cables connected to the computer.
4 Turn the computer over.
5 If the battery release lock is in the locked position, slide it
toward the unlocked position.
