Caring for batteries
m Use only the battery supplied with your computer, or an identical model.
Batteries designed for other portable computers may look similar, but they
may not work with your computer and may damage it.
m Always handle batteries carefully.
m Never get batteries wet.
m Do not short-circuit the battery terminals (that is, do not touch both
terminals with a metal object). Doing so may cause an explosion or a fire.
m Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate, or incinerate the battery.
m Recharge batteries only as described in this manual and only in ventilated
areas.
m Do not leave batteries in hot locations (such as the trunk of a car).
m Do not leave a battery in your computer for longer than a week without
plugging in the power adapter.
m Tr a ns port batteries either inside the computer or with the protective cap
covering the battery contacts.
m Do not leave a battery in storage for longer than 3 months without
recharging it.
m Ta ke dead batteries to an Apple-authorized service provider for recycling or
proper disposal. The batteries contain hazardous chemicals and should not
be thrown out with household or office trash.
