If the battery is leaking or its case is cracked, put on protective 
gloves to handle it, and discard it immediately. Always dispose of 
used battery packs in compliance with all applicable laws and 
regulations. Put insulating tape, such as cellophane tape, on the 
electrode during transportation to avoid a possible short circuit, fire 
or electric shock. Failure to do so could possibly result in serious 
injury.

Wipe the terminals of the charged battery with a clean 
cloth to ensure a good connection.

Insert the charged battery into the slot until the latch 
clicks.

The battery pack has been designed so that you cannot 
install it with reverse polarity.

10 Turn the computer right side up.

11 Reconnect any cables.

12 Restart the computer.

❖

If the battery pack produces an odor, overheats or 
changes color or shape while it is being used or charged, 
turn off the computer’s power immediately and 
disconnect the power cord/cable from the power socket. 
Carefully remove the battery pack from the computer.

❖

Do not try to disassemble a battery pack.

❖

Do not overcharge or reverse charge a battery. 
Overcharging will shorten its life, and reverse charging 
could damage it.

❖

Avoid touching the metal terminals of the battery with 
another metal object. Short-circuiting the battery can 
cause it to overheat and may cause damage to the battery 
or the computer.

❖

Do not incinerate a spent battery, as this could cause it to 
explode and release toxic materials.

❖

If a battery is leaking or damaged, replace it immediately. 
Use protective gloves when handling a damaged battery.
