Handling the Battery
Review the following before handling the notebook battery.
Caution
Only use the type of battery specifically designed for the notebook. Using other NEC VERSA
batteries, other manufacturer's batteries, or using a combination of very old and new batteries

• Turn off the notebook power after use.
• Clean the battery connectors with a dry cloth if they get dirty.
• When not in use, store the battery in a cool dry area.
The following symptoms indicate that battery life is nearing an end. Discard batteries that
display these symptoms:
• shorter work times
• discolouration, warping
• hot to the touch
• strange odour.
Disposing of the Battery
Before disposing of the battery, put adhesive tape on the connectors. Contact your local waste
management officials for information regarding environmentally sound collection, recycling and
disposal of batteries.
