Using a Secondary Battery
An optional secondary 6-cell VersaBay IV battery is available for your NEC Versa
notebook. This battery installs in the VersaBay IV slot on the side of your computer.
Use the secondary VersaBay IV battery
in addition
to the primary battery to extend the
amount of time you can run your system on battery power.
Secondary Battery Precautions
Use these precautions when using the secondary battery in the VersaBay IV slot.
!
Do not attempt to run the system on secondary battery power if the primary battery
is not installed.
The connectors in the primary battery bay should not be exposed, and can cause a
danger if they are accidentally touched, or if they connect with a metal object
during system operation.
!
Do not remove or install the secondary battery while the system is powered on or
plugged in. Shut down and unplug the system first.
!
Always install the weight-saving module that ships with your system in the
VersaBay IV slot if no VersaBay IV device is installed in the slot.
Do not run the system on secondary battery power without the
primary battery in place. The connectors in the primary battery bay can cause a danger
if they are accidentally touched, or if they connect with a metal object.
Do not remove or install the secondary battery while the system is powered on or
plugged in. Shut down and unplug the system first.
If the VersaBay IV slot is empty, always install the weight-saving module to protect the
bay and the connectors within it.
Also see the precautions in the section, “Using the Primary Battery” for information
that applies to the safe use of the secondary battery.
