disassemble the battery. If the battery leaks and you come into contact with the
leaked fluids, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention immediately.
For safety reasons, and to prolong the lifetime of the battery, charging will not occur
at temperatures below 0° C (32° F) or above 40° C (104° F).
The full performance of a new battery is achieved only after two or three complete
charge and discharge cycles. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds
of times, but it will eventually wear out. When the operation time becomes noticeably
shorter than normal, buy a new battery.
Use only the approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with the approved
chargers designated for this device.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that
is damaged. Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object such as a coin, clip or pen causes direct connection of the
positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look like metal strips on
the battery.) This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery in your
pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the
connecting object.
The capacity and lifetime of the battery will be reduced if the battery is left in hot or
cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter. Always try to keep the
battery between 15° C and 25° C (59° F and 77° F). A device with a hot or cold
battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery
performance is especially limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may also explode
if damaged. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
Wireless devices may be susceptible to interference from the battery, which could
affect performance.

Replacing the battery pack
The notebook uses lithium batteries. Replace the battery with the same type as that
which came bundled with your product. Use of another battery may present a risk of
fire or explosion.
Warning! Batteries may explode if not handled properly. Do not
disassemble or dispose of them in fire. Keep them away from
children. Follow local regulations when disposing of used
batteries.
