Battery types

The computer has four types of batteries:
■
Battery pack or Extended capacity battery pack (dependent on the
model purchased)
■
2nd battery pack (option)
■
High capacity battery pack (option)
■
Real Time Clock (RTC) battery
Battery pack or Extended capacity battery pack
When the AC adaptor is not connected, the computer's main power source
is a removable lithium ion battery pack, also referred to in this manual as
the main battery. You can purchase additional battery packs for extended
use of the computer away from an AC power source.
Do not change the battery pack while the AC adaptor is connected.
Before you remove the battery pack, save your data and shut down the
computer, or set the computer to Hibernation Mode. While entering
Hibernation Mode, the computer saves the contents of memory to the hard
disk drive. However, for safety sake, it is best to save your data manually.
Dependent on the model purchased, an Extended capacity battery pack
may be installed instead of a main battery pack. The connection method of
the Extended capacity battery pack is the same as that of main battery
pack.
