Flip the lappie upside down.

Release the removable modules that should be the battery.

I hope I'm right. I'm just speculating based on my experience with other Dell models.

It's on the right side of the front of the laptop. Turn it over onto its back, and you'll see two trinagular looking slide tabs. Slide it over and the battery will pop out. Same for the left side media bay.
