Using the second battery pack
You can purchase a second rechargeable battery pack. With two battery packs, you can extend the time you
use your computer with battery power. When using two battery packs, the battery pack you insert first,
charges first. The battery pack you insert second, charges when the first battery pack is 85 percent full. You
can monitor which battery pack is charging by observing the battery indicator lights.
Inserting the second battery pack
To insert a second battery pack, proceed as follows:
1
If the weight saver or the optical
disc drive is in the multi-purpose
bay (1), remove it.
2
Insert the battery pack (2) into the
multi-purpose bay.
The battery 2 indicator light turns
on.
3
Attach the weight saver (3) to the
computer to stabilize the battery
pack.
4
Slide the eject lever on the bottom
of the weight saver toward the
front of the computer to lock it.
If you attach two battery packs, you can remove one of them without shutting down the computer. When removing one battery pack, make sure that
the other battery pack indicator is on. If the indicator of the battery pack you are going to remove is on, right-click the battery icon in the system tray
and click the Switch Battery option.
