Using the Lenovo Battery Option
Refer to the documentation that comes with your computer before
installing the product.
You can replace the main battery with this Lenovo
TM
Battery.
To replace the main battery with the optional battery, refer to the online
information provided with your Lenovo computer.
This option package includes the following components:
z Lenovo System Battery
z Reference Guide (this book)
All personal computers manufactured by Lenovo contain a
non-rechargeable coin cell battery to provide power to the system clock.
In addition many mobile products such as notebook PCs utilize a
rechargeable battery pack to provide system power when in portable
mode. Batteries supplied by Lenovo for use with your product have been
tested for compatibility and should only be replaced with Lenovo
approved parts.
Never attempt to open or service any battery. Do not crush, puncture, or
incinerate batteries or short circuit the metal contacts. Do not expose the
battery to water or other liquids. Only recharge the battery pack strictly
according to instructions included in the product documentation.
Battery abuse or mishandling can cause the battery to overheat, which
can cause gasses or flame to vent from the battery pack or coin cell. If
your battery is damaged, or if you notice any discharge from your
battery or the buildup of foreign materials on the battery leads, stop
using the battery and obtain a replacement from the battery
manufacturer.
Batteries can degrade when they are left unused for long periods of time.
For some rechargeable batteries (particularly Lithium Ion batteries),
leaving a battery unused in a discharged state could increase the risk of
a battery short circuit, which could shorten the life of the battery and
can also pose a safety hazard. Do not let rechargeable Lithium-Ion
batteries completely discharge or store these batteries in a discharged
state.
2
Note: Note for Japan (JEITA guidance): Batteries are expendable products.
When a fully charged battery no longer provides sufficient run time (in
hours), it should be replaced. A battery used for more than one year is a
good candidate for replacement. Battery life is affected by several factors
such as recharge cycle count, temperature, system usage, screen
brightness, applications and other customer preferences. The battery
utility program included with your system can be used to determine the
current condition of the battery.
Note: Lenovo Battery Options are shipped partially charged to maximize
shelf life. To maximize longevity of your battery, you should fully charge
it after receiving it. Batteries should also be recharged at least twice a
year. If the battery is stored with a low charge for extended periods of
time, the battery may become unusable and might be disabled.
Power cords and power adapters
Use only the power cords and power adapters supplied by the product
manufacturer. The power cord and power adapter are intended for use
with this product only. They should never be used with any other
product.
Batteries
Batteries supplied by Lenovo for use with your product have been
tested for compatibility and should only be replaced with approved
parts.
A battery pack other than the one specified by Lenovo, or a disassembled
or modified battery pack is not covered by the warranty.

Lenovo Limited Warranty
This Lenovo Limited Warranty applies only to Lenovo hardware products you
purchased for your own use and not for resale. This warranty may sometimes be
referred to as the “Statement of Limited Warranty” (SOLW) in other documents
from Lenovo.
What this Warranty Covers
Lenovo warrants that each hardware product is free from defects in materials and
workmanship under normal use during the warranty period. The warranty period
for the product starts on the original date of purchase specified on your invoice
unless Lenovo informs you otherwise in writing. The warranty period and type
of warranty service that apply to your product are designated below under the
section titled “Warranty Information”.
THIS WARRANTY IS YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTY AND
REPLACES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SOME STATES OR
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES APPLY
ONLY TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY LAW AND ARE LIMITED IN
DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES
APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS
DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED
WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION ON DURATION
MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
How to Obtain Warranty Service
If the product does not function as warranted during the warranty period, you
may obtain warranty service by contacting Lenovo or an approved service
provider. Each of them is referred to as a “Service Provider.” A list of Service
Providers is available at
http://consumersupport.lenovo.com.
4
Warranty service may not be available in all locations and may differ from
location to location. Charges may apply outside a Service Provider’s normal
service area. Contact a local Service Provider for location-specific information.
What Your Service Provider Will Do to Correct Problems
When you contact a Service Provider, you must follow the problem
determination and resolution procedures specified.
Your Service Provider will attempt to diagnose and resolve your problem
through On-line Support, which you can obtain at
http://consumersupport.lenovo.com. Your Service Provider may direct you to
download and install designated software updates.
Some problems can be resolved with a replacement part that you install yourself
(such as keyboard, mouse, speaker, memory, hard disk drive, or port replicator),
called a “Customer Replaceable Unit” or “CRU.” If so, your Service Provider
will ship the CRU to you for you to install.
If your problem cannot be resolved remotely, through your application of
software updates, or with a CRU, your Service Provider will arrange for service
under the type of warranty service designated for the product under the section
titled “Warranty Information”.
If your Service Provider determines that it is unable to repair your product, your
Service Provider will replace it with one that is at least functionally equivalent.
If your Service Provider determines that it is unable to either repair or replace
your product, your sole remedy is to return the product to your place of purchase
or to Lenovo and your purchase price will be refunded.
Exchange of a Product or Part
When the warranty service involves the exchange of a product or part, the item
your Service Provider replaces becomes Lenovo’s property and the replacement
becomes yours. All removed items must be genuine and unaltered. The
replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order and at least
functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement assumes the
warranty status of the replaced item.
Before your Service Provider exchanges a product or part, you agree to:
1. remove all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under
warranty service;
5
2. ensure that the product is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that
prevent its exchange; and
3. obtain authorization from the owner to have your Service Provider service a
product that you do not own.
Your Additional Responsibilities
Where applicable, before service is provided, you agree to:
1. follow the service request procedures that your Service Provider specifies;
2. backup or secure all programs and data contained in the product;
3. provide your Service Provider with all system keys or passwords and
sufficient, free, and safe access to your facilities to permit the terms of this
warranty to be fulfilled; and
4. ensure that all information about identified or identifiable individuals
(“Personal Data”) is deleted from the product or that, with respect to any
remaining Personal Data you did not delete, you are in compliance with all
applicable laws.
Use of Personal Information
If you obtain service under this warranty, Lenovo will store, use and process
information about your warranty issue and your contact information, including
name, phone numbers, address, and e-mail address. Lenovo will use this
information to perform service under this warranty and to improve our business
relationship with you, such as to conduct internal reviews of the efficiency of the
warranty service we provide to you. We may contact you to inquire about your
satisfaction regarding our warranty service or to notify you about any product
recalls or safety issues. We may also provide this information to entities acting
on our behalf to accomplish these purposes.
What this Warranty Does not Cover
This warranty does not cover the following:
y uninterrupted or error-free operation of a product;
y loss of, or damage to, your data;
y any software programs, whether provided with the product or installed
subsequently;
y failure or damage resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable
physical or operating environment, natural disasters, power surges, or
improper maintenance by you;
6
y any third party products, including those that Lenovo may procure and
provide with or integrate into the Lenovo product at your request; and
y any technical or other support, such as assistance with “how-to” questions
and those regarding product set-up and installation.
This warranty is voided by removal or alteration of identification labels on the
product or its parts.
Limitation of Liability
Lenovo is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your product only while it is 1)
in your Service Provider's possession or 2) in transit in those cases in which the
Service Provider is responsible for the transportation.
Neither Lenovo nor your Service Provider is responsible for any of your data
including confidential, proprietary, or personal data contained in a product. You
should remove and/or backup all such information from the product prior to its
service or return.
Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on Lenovo's part or other
liability, you may be entitled to recover damages from Lenovo. In each such
instance, regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim damages from
Lenovo (including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other
contract or tort claim), except and to the extent that liability cannot be waived or
limited by applicable laws, Lenovo is liable for no more than the amount of
actual direct damages suffered by you, up to the amount you paid for the product.
This limit does not apply to damages for bodily injury (including death) and
damage to real property and tangible personal property for which Lenovo is
required by law to be liable.
This limit also applies to Lenovo's suppliers, resellers, and your Service
Provider. It is the maximum for which Lenovo, its suppliers, resellers, and your
Service Provider are collectively responsible.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS LENOVO, ITS SUPPLIERS,
RESELLERS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE
FOLLOWING EVEN IF INFORMED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY: 1)
THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES; 2) LOSS OF,
OR DAMAGE TO, YOUR DATA; OR 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR
INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS REVENUE,
GOODWILL, OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS. SOME STATES OR
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR
7
LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO
THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO
YOU.
Dispute Resolution
If you acquired the product in Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam or
Sri Lanka, disputes arising out of or in connection with this warranty shall be
finally settled by arbitration held in Singapore and this warranty shall be
governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Singapore,
without regard to conflict of laws. If you acquired the product in India, disputes
arising out of or in connection with this warranty shall be finally settled by
arbitration held in Bangalore, India. Arbitration in Singapore shall be held in
accordance with the Arbitration Rules of Singapore International Arbitration
Center ("SIAC Rules") then in effect. Arbitration in India shall be held in
accordance with the laws of India then in effect. The arbitration award shall be
final and binding for the parties without appeal and shall be in writing and set
forth the findings of fact and the conclusions of law. All arbitration proceedings
shall be conducted, including all documents presented in such proceedings, in the
English language, and the English language version of this warranty prevails
over any other language version in such proceedings.
Other Rights
THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU
MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO
STATE OR JURISDISCTION TO JURISDICTION. YOU ALSO MAY
HAVE OTHER RIGHTS UNDER APPLICABLE LAW OR WRITTEN
AGREEMENT WITH LENOVO. NOTHING IN THIS WARRANTY
AFFECTS STATUTORY RIGHTS, INCLUDING RIGHTS OF
CONSUMERS UNDER NATIONAL LEGISLATION GOVERNING THE
SALE OF CONSUMER GOODS THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED OR
LIMITED BY CONTRACT.

* Additional, you can find warranty terms and service type for unlisted countries on Lenovo Consumer Website
located at http://consumersupport.lenovo.com.
If required, your Service Provider will provide repair or exchange service
depending on the type of warranty service specified for your product and the
available service. Scheduling of service will depend upon the time of your
request, parts availability, and other factors.
A warranty period of 1 years on parts and 1 year on labor means that Lenovo
provides warranty service during the first year of the warranty period (or a longer
period as required by law).
Types of Warranty Service
1. Customer Replaceable Unit (“CRU”) Service
Under CRU Service, your Service Provider will ship CRUs to you for you to
install. Most CRUs are easy to install whereas others may require some technical
skill and tools. CRU information and replacement instructions are shipped with
your product and are available from Lenovo at any time upon request. You may
request that a Service Provider install some CRUs under one of the other types of
warranty service designated for your product. Installation of external CRUs
(such as mice, keyboards, or monitors) is your responsibility. Lenovo specifies in
the materials shipped with a replacement CRU whether the defective CRU must
be returned. When return is required, 1) return instructions, a prepaid return
9
shipping label, and a container are included with the replacement CRU, and 2)
you may be charged for the replacement CRU if your Service Provider does not
receive the defective CRU within thirty (30) days of your receipt of the
replacement.
2. On-site Service
Under On-Site Service, your Service Provider will either repair or exchange the
product at your location. You must provide a suitable working area to allow
disassembly and reassembly of the Lenovo product. For some products, certain
repairs may require your Service Provider to send the product to a designated
service center.
3. Courier or Depot Service
Under Courier or Depot Service, your product will be repaired or exchanged at a
designated service center, with shipping arranged by your Service Provider. You
are responsible for disconnecting the product. A shipping container will be
provided to you for you to return your product to a designated service center. A
courier will pick up your product and deliver it to the designated service center.
Following its repair or exchange, the service center will arrange the return
delivery of the product to you.
4. Customer Carry-In or Mail-In Service
Under Customer Carry-In or Mail-In Service, your product will be repaired or
exchanged at a designated service center, with delivery or shipping arranged by
you. You are responsible to deliver or mail, as your Service Provider specifies,
(prepaid unless specified otherwise) the product suitably packaged to a
designated location. After the product has been repaired or exchanged, it will be
made available for your collection. Failure to collect the product may result in
your Service Provider disposing of the product as it sees fit. For Mail-in Service,
the product will be returned to you at Lenovo's expense, unless your Service
Provider specifies otherwise.

and electronic equipment (WEEE). The Directive determines the framework for
the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the
European Union. This label is applied to various products to indicate that the
product is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end of life per this
Directive. Users of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with the WEEE
marking per Annex IV of the WEEE Directive must not dispose of end of life
EEE as unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to
them for the return, recycle, recovery of WEEE and minimize any potential
effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to the presence of
hazardous substances. For additional WEEE information go to:
