BOTTOM COMPONENTS
Following is a brief description of your notebook’s
bottom panel components. (Figure 2-8)
Battery Pack Latches
The battery pack latches are used to lock the Lithium ion
battery pack into the battery compartment.
Lithium ion Battery
The battery compartment contains the internal Lithium
ion battery. The battery should be removed when the
computer is stored over a long period of time or for
swapping a discharged battery with a charged Lithium
ion battery. See “Lithium ion Battery” on page 39.
Air Vents
The air vents allow proper air circulation to ensure that
the system does not overheat
.
Memory Upgrade Compartment
Your notebook comes with high speed DDR2 Synchro-
nous Dynamic RAM (SDRAM). The memory upgrade
compartment allows you to expand the system memory
capacity of your system, hence improving overall perfor-
mance. See “Memory Upgrade Module” on page 41.
Port Replicator Connector
This connector allows you to connect the optional port
replicator.

tion that you will need to give your support representa-
tive. It identifies the exact version of various

Air Vents
To protect your system from damage and
to optimize system performance, be sure
to keep all air all vents unobstructed,
clean, and clear of debris. This may
require periodic cleaning, depending upon
the environment in which the system is
used.
Do not operate the system in areas where
the air vents can be obstructed, such as in
tight enclosures or on soft surfaces like a
bed or cushion.
