Storing a user-replaceable battery
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to a battery, do not expose it to high temperatures for
extended periods of time.
If your computer will be unused and unplugged from external power for more than 2 weeks, remove
the battery and store it separately in a cool, dry place to prolong the battery charge.
A stored battery should be checked every 6 months. If the capacity is less than 50 percent, recharge
the battery before returning it to storage.
Disposing of a user-replaceable battery
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, or puncture; do not short
external contacts; do not dispose of in fire or water.
See the Regulatory, Safety and Environmental Notices for proper battery disposal. To access this
guide, select Start > Help and Support > User Guides.
Replacing a user-replaceable battery
Battery Check in Help and Support notifies you to replace the battery when an internal cell is not
charging properly or when the battery storage capacity has reached a weak condition. If the battery is
possibly covered by an HP warranty, instructions include a warranty ID. A message refers you to the
HP website for more information about ordering a replacement battery.
