Replacing the Main Battery

CAUTION: Using the wrong battery type may present a risk of fire or explo-
sion. Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type purchased
from Dell. You can use your computer’s battery in any Latitude C-Family
computer except
for the Latitude CS or CSx computers. Do not attempt to
use the battery in CS or CSx
, and do not use a battery from those computers
in your computer.

NOTICE: To avoid data loss, do not replace a battery while the computer is
turned on unless the computer is connected to an electrical outlet or a sec-
ond battery is installed.

NOTICE: Only use lithium ion batteries in your computer. The computer
does not support nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries. If you install a
NiMH battery, the battery status lights blink alternately green and amber.
