Using Battery Power, Inserting the Battery | HP 14XL455 guide

Your Notebook contains a lithium ion or nickel metal hydride battery pack. Improper handling of the battery pack can result in fire and chemical burns. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, dispose of in water or fire, or expose to temperatures higher than 60 °C (140 °F). Replace only with the Compaq battery pack specified for your Notebook.

The battery charges whether your Notebook is on or off. It continues charging until the battery is fully charged or the AC power is disconnected.

If you will not be using your Notebook for an extended period of time, Compaq recom- mends that you unplug the electrical cord from the socket and remove the battery while your Notebook is not in use.
