Disposing of used batteries safely

You can recharge a main battery many times, so it should last for years. When the useful life of the battery expires or if the battery becomes damaged, you must discard it responsibly.

The documentation that came with your computer may include an insert regarding the disposal of batteries. If not, check with your local government for information on where to recycle or dispose of old batteries.
