To remove the battery pack

Turn off the computer.

Slide the release levers to the UNLOCK position and slide the battery away 
from the computer.

❑

Never leave the battery pack in temperatures above 140

° F (60° C), such as 

under direct sunlight or in a car parked in the sun.

❑

Battery life is shorter in a cold environment. This is due to decreased battery 
efficiency at low temperatures.

❑

Charge the batteries at temperatures between 50

° F and 80° F (10° C to 

30

° C). Lower temperatures require a longer charging time.

❑

While the battery is in use or being discharged, the battery pack heats up. 
This is normal and is not cause for concern.

❑

Keep the battery pack away from all sources of heat.

❑

Keep the battery pack dry.

❑

Do not open or try to disassemble the battery pack.

❑

Do not expose the battery pack to any mechanical shock.

❑

If you are not using the computer for an extended period of time, remove the 
battery pack from the computer to prevent damage to the battery.

✍

You may lose data if you remove the battery pack while the computer is on and not 

connected to the AC adapter or if you remove the battery while the computer is in 

System Suspend mode.
