Read First: All laptops are
different, however, they usually share similarities when it comes to taking out
the main battery. That being said, all of the newer MacBooks from Apple use
integrated batteries that generally require service to remove.
If you are using a Windows or Linux based laptop,
this page provides a general idea on how to remove the laptop battery. If you
are replacing a laptop battery, you can insert the new battery after removing
the old battery.
Note: Many ultrabook laptops
have batteries that are not accessible from the outside of the laptop. Removing
the battery will require the help of a repair technician to open the laptop.
Removing the battery
1. If your laptop is plugged in, either
unplug it or disconnect the power cable.
2. Turn your laptop over so the bottom
is facing up.
3. Locate the battery latch on the
bottom of the computer. The image to the right shows some of the more common
battery latches found on laptops.
4. To remove the battery, slide the
latch switch to the opposite side and hold it in that position until the
battery is released.
5. On some laptops, the battery pops out
on its own. On others, you'll need to pull it out gently with the tips of your
fingers.
Other situations
Although most laptops only have one
latch, there are some that require you to slide two latches to remove the
battery. On these laptops, the latches will still look similar to the examples
above, but require you to move both at the same time, usually towards each
other.
Finally, there are also some older
laptops (IBM laptops) that require the latch to be pulled out and then pushed
towards the battery.
No battery latch found
If you cannot find any battery latches
or buttons for releasing the battery on the bottom of the laptop, it is
possible the laptop utilizes a different mechanism to release the battery. The
laptop may also need to be serviced by a licensed repair facility to have the
battery removed through partial or full disassembly.
We recommend referring to the laptop
documentation or check the manufacturer's website for steps on how to remove
the battery or if servicing is required to remove the battery.
