Changing the battery
Changing the battery
When your battery has run out of power, you have two options: plug 
in the AC adaptor or install a charged battery.
Never short circuit the battery pack by either accidentally or 
intentionally bringing the battery terminals in contact with another 
conductive object. This could cause serious injury or fire, and could 
also damage the battery pack and computer.
Never expose a battery pack to abnormal shock, vibration or 
pressure. The battery pack's internal protective device could 
fail, causing it to overheat or ignite, resulting in caustic liquid 
leakage, or explosion or fire, possibly resulting in death or 
serious injury.
TECHNICAL NOTE: To avoid losing any data, save your files and 
then either completely shut down your computer or put it into 
Hibernation mode before changing the battery.
