If you choose to use tools to remove the battery be careful not to damage it. A damaged lithium-ion battery may leak dangerous chemicals and/or catch fire. Use only plastic pry tools.

Because the battery is held down by clips at the front, i found it necessary to remove the four screw holding the hard drive to the right so that i could slide the battery to the right (indicated by the arrow on the battery) and out from under the clips.

Hey there Chip! Thanks for the comment! We were probably able to remove the battery without touching the hard drive because the laptop used to make this guide was damaged inside and out. I hope your new battery is running smoothly. Happy fixing!

This is what I was looking for. My battery was partially out of the clips as a result of me tossing it, it came out easy but when I went to put it back in place it wouldn't slide in. I kinda “helped” it with out removing the HD. My optical drive isnt working so I have to take it apart again. It will super easy now with the added instruction. Thanks dude!
