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.
To replace the main battery, use an identical battery that 
you can purchase through 
.
A reverse polarity condition should be avoided with all 
batteries. The main battery is designed so that it cannot 
be installed to cause reverse polarity. 
Charge the battery only in the computer or in a battery 
charger designated as an approved option.
When you install the battery, you should hear a click 
when it is seated properly.
Do not expose the battery to fire. The battery could 
explode.
Maximizing battery life
To maximize the life of your battery:
At least once a month, disconnect the computer from a 
power source and operate it on battery power until the 
battery fully discharges. Before doing so, follow the steps 
below:
1
Turn off the computer’s power.
2
Disconnect the AC adapter and turn on the 
computer’s power. If it does not turn on, go to step 4.
