• Keep the battery away from fire.
• Do not expose it to excessive heat.
• Do not expose it to water or rain.
• Do not short-circuit it.
• Do not drop, crush, puncture, or subject to strong forces. Battery abuse or mishandling can
cause the battery to overheat, which can cause gasses or flame to "vent" from the battery.
To replace the removable battery, do the following:
1. Disconnect the ac power from the computer and turn off the computer. Close the computer display
and turn the computer over.
2. Unlock the battery latch
