Replacing the battery
Computer battery life varies, depending on the power management settings, programs running on the
computer, display brightness, external devices connected to the computer, and other factors.
Battery Check notifies you to replace the battery when an internal cell is not charging properly, or when
the battery storage capacity has reached a “weak” condition. A message refers you to the HP Web site
for more information about ordering a replacement battery. If the battery is possibly covered by an HP
warranty, instructions include a warranty ID.
NOTE:
To ensure that you always have battery power when you need it, HP recommends purchasing
a new battery when the storage capacity indicator turns green-yellow.
