Step 1. Prepare the Computer.  
 

CAUTION: 

Make sure the 

computer is turned off,  the  lid is 
closed, and the  AC Adapter is 
disconnected. Failure to do so can 
result in damage to the computer. 
  
Place the computer upside down on 
a protected surface with the  front 
edge facing you. 

Step 2. Remove the Battery Pack.  
 
Locate the two tabs as shown in the 
picture. One is on the left end of the 
battery pack, and the other is located 
on the right side. Using your thumbs 
and fingers push both tabs in the 
release direction; gently push the 
battery pack away from you. 

Step 3. Locate ODD Bay. 
 
Rotate the computer with the 
Optical Disk Drive  (ODD) Bay 
facing you as shown in the picture. 

These easy instructions are intended to guide you through the replacement process.

your notebook computer.*
