Running the computer on battery power
The computer contains a removable lithium ion (Li-ion) 
high-capacity battery that provides power when you are away 
from an AC outlet. You can recharge it many times. 
In addition, the computer has an internal real-time clock 
(RTC) battery. The RTC battery powers the RTC memory, 
which stores your system configuration settings and the 
current time and date for up to a month while the computer is 
turned off. 
Using a second battery
If you spend a lot of time traveling and need to work for 
many hours without an AC power source, you can fit a second 
battery pack in the Modular Bay.
Battery safety precautions 
Never try to disassemble a battery.
Never overcharge or reverse charge a battery. 
Overcharging will shorten its life and reverse charging 
could destroy it, causing the release of toxic fumes.
Avoid touching the metal terminals of the battery with 
another metal object. Short-circuiting the battery will 
cause it to overheat and may cause permanent damage to 
the battery or the computer.
Never incinerate a spent battery as this will cause it to 
explode, releasing 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 which 
you can purchase from the accessory information shipped 
with your system or at
