Battery Notice This computer contains an internal lithium battery-powered real-time clock circuit. There is a risk of explosion and injury if the battery is incorrectly replaced or handled improperly. Do not attempt to recharge, disassemble, immerse in water, or dispose of it in fire. Replacement should be done using the Compaq spare part for this computer. The computer also contains a nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion battery pack. There is a risk of fire and chemical burn if the battery pack is handled improperly. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, dispose in fire or water, or expose it to temperatures higher than 60 degrees C. In North America, dispose of nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion batteries by taking advantage of the Compaq battery recycling program. You will be provided with a postage-paid battery pack mailer preaddressed to a reclamation facility where the metals are recycled. In Europe, do not dispose of batteries and accumulators with general household waste. Dispose of or recycle them by using the public collection system or returning them to Compaq. Serial Number The serial number is located on the back of the computer directly below the parallel connector. Preface xiii
