Disposing of the Battery
Before disposing of the battery, put adhesive tape on the terminals. Depending upon the
NEC Versa VX model, the main battery is made of Nickel Metal-Hydride (NiMH) or
Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion).
Contact your local waste management officials for information regarding
environmentally sound collection, recycling, and disposal of batteries.
Internal Batteries
The Nickel Metal-Hydride or Lithium-Ion battery is the main power source in your
NEC Versa VX computer. Appendix B lists battery specifications. In addition to the
main battery, the CMOS battery provides power to maintain system configuration
settings.
CMOS Battery
This battery provides battery backup and prevents data loss in the system’s
