Replacing the Battery
With the purchase of an additional battery, you can have a fully charged spare to swap with one that is not
charged. There are two ways to swap batteries, cold-swapping and hot-swapping:
Cold-swapping Batteries
To cold-swap batteries in your battery bay follow these easy steps:
1 Have a charged battery ready to install.
2 Shut down your notebook and disconnect the AC adapter.
3 With the system positioned as shown in 19a, press the #1 latch backwards and -- while holding it -- sliding the
#2 latch to the right. Lift the battery out of the bay using the lift point as shown in Figure 19b.
4 Insert a new battery into the bay (See Figure 20), and press it down so that it is seated firmly.
5 Plug in the AC adapter and turn the power on.
