Damaged Battery Warning
Should you notice any physical defects (e.g. the battery is bent out of shape after being
dropped), or any unusual smells emanating from the notebook battery, shut your computer
down immediately and contact your service center. If the battery has been dropped we do not
recommend using it any further, as even if the computer continues to work with a damaged
battery in place, it may cause circuit damage, which may possibly result in fire. It is recommend-
ed that you replace your computer battery every two years.
