Precautions This section describes certain situations that could cause serious loss of data. Do not remove a data storage PC Card while it is actively reading or writing. This could cause its data to become corrupted. Certain applications, such as Intuit's Quicken, keep their working files open, and they update the files as you make changes. For such applications, you should open only files that reside on the hard drive, not on a removable disk. An open file on a removable disk (such as a floppy disk or PC Card) is susceptible to corruption in certain situations. Before suspending, docking, or undocking your computer, always save your data and close any applications you have open, especially applications that are not power aware, audio and video applications, and applications using PC Cards and I/O devices such as a CD-ROM drive. Protecting against Viruses It is important to protect your data against potential damage by viruses. We recommend that you install virus-protection software, such as the VirusScan software shipped with your HP notebook. Note: You should update the software regularly so it has the latest virus data.

Swapping Batteries in Standby Mode Normally, you can swap the main battery while the computer is in Standby mode. An internal backup battery provides power during the time you're changing the battery. However, certain power settings can increase power use during Standby. If you have changed settings that increase Standby power use, you should shut down your computer or plug in the AC adapter before swapping batteries. Otherwise, unsaved data could be lost if power runs out.

Precautions
This section describes certain situations that could cause serious loss of data.
Do not remove a data storage PC Card while it is actively reading or writing. This could cause its data to
become corrupted.
Certain applications, such as Intuit's Quicken, keep their working files open, and they update the files as you
make changes. For such applications, you should open only files that reside on the hard drive, not on a
removable disk. An open file on a removable disk (such as a floppy disk or PC Card) is susceptible to
corruption in certain situations.
Before suspending, docking, or undocking your computer, always save your data and close any applications
you have open, especially applications that are not power aware, audio and video applications, and
applications using PC Cards and I/O devices such as a CD-ROM drive.
