Removing the discharged battery
If the battery is leaking or its case is cracked, put on protective
gloves to handle it, and discard it immediately following the
advice in “Disposing of used batteries” on page 109.
8 Wipe the terminals of the charged battery with a clean
cloth to ensure a good connection.
9 Insert the charged battery into the slot until the latch
clicks.
The battery pack has been designed so that you cannot install
it with reverse polarity.

battery release lock to the unlocked position and try again. Do
not force the battery into position.
10 Reset the battery lock to the locked position.
11 Turn the computer right side up.
12 Reconnect any cables.
13 Restart the computer.
