■Recycling the Battery
ÅWARNING: If your Notebook contains a lithium battery pack, improper handling of the battery pack may result in fire and chemical burns. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, dispose of in water or fire, or expose it to temperatures higher than 140° F (60° C). Replace only with the Compaq battery pack specified for your Notebook.

Tip For safety reasons, when operating under AC power, Compaq recommends that you keep a battery installed. This ensures that you have a charged battery when you need it.
