Replacing Battery Pack(s)
If you are operating the computer with only one battery pack or if
the computer indicates a low-battery condition, initiate Suspend
before replacing the battery pack(s).
CAUTION: To prevent loss of unsaved data when the computer is on
and you are removing the only battery pack, initiate Suspend. When the
screen blanks and the power/suspend light begins blinking, remove the
battery pack and replace it with a charged battery pack within ten
minutes.
If you are operating the computer with two battery packs and the
computer is not in a low-battery condition, you can remove one
battery pack without first initiating Suspend.

to release the battery pack in the dedicated battery
compartment.
