Damaged Battery Warning
Should you notice any physical defects (e.g. the battery is bent out of shape after being dropped), or any unusual smells emanating
from the notebook battery, shut your computer down immediately and contact your service center. If the battery has been dropped
we do not recommend using it any further, as even if the computer continues to work with a dam-aged battery in place, it may
cause circuit damage, which may possibly result in fire. It is recommended that you replace your computer battery every two years.
10 Cell Battery Warning
Please be careful when using the 10 cell battery. The battery is heavy and extends beyond the case of the computer. Moving the
battery, or exposing it to shock or vibration may interrupt the battery contacts and cause the computer to shutdown.

Battery FAQ

How do I completely discharge the battery?
Use the computer with battery power until it shuts down due to a low battery. Don't turn off the computer by yourself even when
you see a message that indicates the battery is critically low, just let the computer use up all of the battery power and shut down on
its own. Disable the Power Options functions in the Control Panel, especially any Alarms (unclick the tickboxes) and Schemes
(change all the settings to Never). As the battery nears the end of its life save and close any critical files. For the most efficient
method of discharging the battery see "Using the BIOS Utility to Calibrate the Battery".
How do I fully charge the battery?
When charging the battery, don't stop until the battery LED changes from orange to clear.
How do I maintain the battery?
Completely discharge and charge the battery at least once every 30 days or after about 20 partial discharges.
Caution
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type
recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used battery according to the manufacturer's instructions.
