Battery Packs
Disposing of a Used Battery Pack
ÅWARNING: There is a risk of fire and chemical burn if a battery pack is handled improperly. Do not disassemble, crush, or puncture a battery pack or short the contacts on it. Do not expose a battery pack to temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F), or dispose of it in water or fire.
When a battery pack has reached the end of its useful life, do not dispose of it in general household waste.
■In Europe, dispose of or recycle battery packs by using the public collection system or by returning them to Compaq, your authorized Compaq partners, or their agents.
■In other regions, refer to the Worldwide Telephone Numbers booklet included with the notebook to contact a reseller or service provider and request information about battery pack disposal.
