www.gateway.com Recharging the battery(ies) The main and optional multibay batteries recharge while they are installed and your convertible notebook is connected to AC power. While the battery(ies) recharge, the battery charge indicator turns on and the power cord icon in the taskbar has a lightning bolt . Important If the power cord icon does not appear on the taskbar, click or tap the show hidden icons button. If the icon still does not appear, make sure that Always show icon on the taskbar is checked on the Advance tab in the Power Options Properties dialog box. For more information, see "Changing advanced settings" on page 72. Changing batteries Replacing the main battery Warning Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with a battery specifically manufactured for your Gateway convertible notebook. Discard used batteries according to local hazardous material regulations. The battery used in this device may present a fire or chemical burn hazard if mishandled. Do not disassemble, heat above 212°F (100°C), or incinerate. Dispose of used batteries promptly. Keep away from children. Caution If your convertible notebook is connected to AC power, or if it has a charged multibay battery installed, you can change the main battery while the convertible notebook is turned on. If your convertible notebook has only a main battery and it is not plugged into an AC outlet, you must turn the convertible notebook off while changing the battery. 63
