Battery safety
Note

To avoid risk of fire, burns, or damage to your battery pack, do not allow any metal
object to touch the battery contacts.
Do not disassemble the battery. There are no serviceable parts inside. Do not dispose
of the battery pack in fire or water.
Handle a damaged or leaking battery with extreme care. If you come in contact with
the electrolyte, wash the exposed area with soap and water. If it contacts the eye, flush
the eye with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
Do not expose the battery pack to storage temperatures above 60 °C (140 °F).
When the battery is not in use, store it in the battery pouch provided.
When discarding a battery pack, contact your local waste disposal provider regarding
local restrictions on the disposal or recycling of batteries.
To obtain a replacement battery, contact your local dealer or HP sales office.
Do not charge the battery pack if the ambient temperature exceeds 45 °C (113 °F).
Replace only with the same or equivalent type battery pack recommended by the
manufacturer.
