Additional Battery Pack

There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace the

battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the equipment

manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer

instructions.

If you wish to prolong operating time on battery power while traveling, an

optional extra fully charged battery pack is necessary.

This additional battery pack can either be installed in the computer as the

secondary battery pack or used to replace the primary discharged battery

pack.

Installing the Secondary Battery Pack

1. As a special bracket is required to install the secondary battery pack, you

are advised to purchase the optional battery pack from an authorized

dealer.

2. When the secondary battery pack is installed, recharging and

discharging always begins with the primary battery pack.

The additional battery pack can be installed in the floppy disk drive bay

as the secondary battery pack. For installation instructions, see the

"Replacing the Floppy Disk Drive” section in Chapter 4.

Replacing the Primary Battery Pack

1. Make sure the computer is not turned on or connected to AC power.

2. Carefully turn the computer upside down.

3. Slide the locking latch toward the unlocked position and remove the

compartment cover.
