Battery Notice

!WARNING: This computer contains an internal lithium battery-powered

real-time clock circuit. There is a risk of explosion and injury if the

battery is incorrectly replaced or handled improperly. Do not attempt to

recharge, disassemble, immerse in water, or dispose of it in fire.

Replacement should be done by a Compaq authorized service provider

using the Compaq spare part for this computer.

!WARNING: The computer contains a nickel metal hydride battery pack.

There is a risk of fire and chemical burn if the battery pack is handled

improperly. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts,

dispose of in water or fire, or expose it to temperatures higher than 60

In North America, dispose of nickel metal hydride batteries by

taking advantage of the Compaq battery recycling program. You

will be provided with a postage-paid battery pack mailer

preaddressed to a reclamation facility where the metals are recycled.

In Europe, do not dispose of batteries with general

using the public collection system or returning them

to Compaq, your authorized Compaq Partners, or

their agents.
