To Change How Power Is Managed - HP OmniBook 800 - Notebook PC User Manual

Caution
If you have the ac adapter plugged in when you remove the battery, do
not disconnect it while the battery is out. If you do, your current
session and any unsaved data will be lost.
1. Important: Close and save all files. Turn off the unit—do not turn it on
until you've finished replacing the battery. Also, if it's connected, do not
unplug the ac adapter until you're finished.
2. Release the two latches on the battery on the bottom of the case, then
remove the battery.
3. Insert the new battery pack so the metal battery contacts on the pack
line up with the contacts in the compartment, then latch the cover. If you
replace the battery within 1 minute, your current work session will be
saved. (Saved files and data are not affected.)
4. If you have changed the battery very quickly, you might need to press
FN+ON to update the battery status in the taskbar and in the Status
Panel.
Caution
Do not mutilate, puncture, or dispose of the battery in fire. The battery
can burst or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals.
A rechargeable battery pack must be recycled or disposed of properly.
