HP 14XL455 manual Recycling the Battery

Temperature plays an important role in recharging your battery. To gain maximum capacity, allow both the battery and your Notebook to cool to 68 °F (20 °C), which is room temperature, before recharging the battery.

You may store your battery within the following temperature range: 0 °C to

45°C (32 °F to 113 °F). To extend its operating life, store the battery in a cool, dry place.

The “Government Approvals” section of the Safety and Comfort Guide for more information on recycling.

Refer to the following storage requirements:

NiMH Battery – If your Notebook uses a NiMH (nickel- metal-hydride) battery and you will not be using your Notebook for a long period of time (more than two weeks):

•Use your Notebook until the battery is drained completely.

•Remove the battery from your Notebook and store it separately.

Li-ion Battery – If your Notebook uses a Li-ion (lithium-ion) battery and you will not be using your Notebook for a long period of time (more than two weeks):

•Use your Notebook until the battery is drained to 50 percent.

•Remove the battery and store it separately.

Recycling the Battery

In North America, dispose of nickel-metal-hydride or lithium-ion batteries by taking advantage of the Compaq battery recycling program. You will be provided with a postage-paid battery pack mailer pre-addressed to a reclamation facility where the metals are recycled.

Do not dispose of batteries with general household waste. Dispose of or recycle them by using a public collection system or returning them to Compaq, your authorised Compaq partners, or their agents.
