using a port replicator) or has a charged secondary battery installed,
go to Step 3.

If your notebook is on, is not plugged into an AC outlet, and does
not have a charged secondary battery installed, save your work and
turn off the notebook.
3 Close the LCD panel.

5 Slide the battery lock to the unlocked position.
6 Slide the battery release latch, then slide the battery out of the
