Battery Packs
If you will not be using the notebook for 2 weeks or more,
remove the battery pack and store it as described in “Storing a
Battery Pack” (later in this chapter) to prolong its life. For more
information about leaving your work, refer on the Documentation
Library CD to the Software Guide, “Power” chapter.
✎
Only compatible AC adapters and battery packs should be used
with the notebook. For additional information, visit the HP Web
site at
http://www.hp.com or use the Worldwide Telephone Numbers
booklet, included with your notebook, to contact an HP
authorized dealer.
Identifying Battery Packs
The notebook supports up to 2 battery packs:
■ The primary battery pack 1 is an 6- or 8-cell lithium ion
battery pack that can be used only in the battery bay. One
primary battery pack is included with the notebook.
■ The MultiBay battery pack 2 is an optional 8-cell prismatic
lithium ion battery pack that can be used only in the
MultiBay.
For information about the lights and button on the MultiBay
battery pack, refer to “Monitoring the Charge in a Battery
Pack” later in this chapter.
