Extending battery life
To maximize the life of your battery pack:
If you have extra battery packs, rotate their use.
If you will not be using the system for an extended period, remove the 
battery pack.
Store spare battery packs in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.
Replacing the battery pack
When the battery pack reaches the end of its operating life you will need to 
install a new one. If the Battery indicator flashes amber shortly after the

You might also replace a discharged battery pack with a charged spare 
when you are operating your computer away from an AC power source. This 
section explains how to remove and install the battery pack.
