Guidelines for Using Battery Packs
If two fully charged battery packs are installed, you can remove
one battery while the computer is on without affecting system
operation. With one battery pack, turn off the computer or initiate
Hibernation before removing a battery.
When the computer is in Suspend, you must always have a power
source, either a fully charged battery pack or AC power, before
removing a battery pack.
Removing the Battery from the Battery Bay
Rechargeable battery packs can be used in the computer battery
bay or DualBay. To remove the battery pack from the battery bay
(when only one battery pack is installed), turn off the computer or
connect to AC power, and follow these steps:
1. Pull down on the battery pack release latch
1 to release the
battery from the battery bay.
2. Remove the battery pack 2.

Inserting a Battery into the Battery Bay
To insert a battery pack into the battery bay, slide a fully charged
battery pack (label facing up and contacts facing toward the
computer) into the battery bay until it snaps into place.

See the online Reference Guide for details on using battery packs.
