recommended by the manufacturer. The battery in this PC is a lithium
battery which does not contain heavy metals, nevertheless, in order to
protect the environment, do not dispose of batteries in household
waste. Please return used batteries to the shop from which you bought
them, or to the dealer from whom you purchased your PC, or to HP, so
that they can either be recycled or disposed of in an environmentally
sound way. Returned used batteries will be accepted free of charge.
The battery is not covered by the HP Warranty. You should order
replacement battery HP 1420-0356 from your local Sales and Service
office, or a "CR2032 type" battery, which is available from most local
stores.
After removing the computer's cover:
