Battery Pack
The battery pack is automatically charged when connected to an AC power source and maintains power to
the Notebook PC when AC power is not connected. This allows use when moving temporarily between
locations. Battery time varies by usage and by the specifications for this Notebook PC. The battery pack
cannot be disassembled and must be replaced as a single unit through an authorized vendor.
Battery Lock - Spring
The spring battery lock is used to keep the battery pack secured. When the battery pack is inserted, it will
automatically lock. To remove the battery pack, this spring lock must be held in the unlocked position.
Battery Lock - Manual
The manual battery lock is used to keep the battery pack secured. Move the manual lock to the unlocked
position to insert or remove the battery pack. Move the manual lock to the locked position after inserting
the battery pack.

Emergency Shutdown Button
In case your operating system cannot properly turn OFF or restart, the shutdown button
can be pressed with a straightened paper clip to shutdown the Notebook PC.
Flash Memory Slot
Normally a PCMCIA or USB memory card reader must be purchased separately in order to
use memory cards from devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, mobile phones, and
PDAs. This Notebook PC has a built-in memory card reader that can read many flash memory
cards as specified later in this manual. The built-in memory card reader is not only convenient,
but also faster than most other forms of memory card readers because it utilizes the high-
bandwidth PCI bus.
