Before you remove the battery pack, save your data and shut down the
computer, or place the computer into Hibernation Mode. Be aware that,
when placing the computer into Hibernation Mode, the contents of memory
are saved to the internal storage drive, although for safety sake, it is best to
also save your data manually.
Real-Time Clock (RTC) battery
The Real-Time Clock (RTC) battery provides power for the internal real-
time clock and calendar function and also maintains the system
configuration while the computer is turned off. If the RTC battery becomes
completely discharged, the system will lose this information and the real-
time clock and calendar will stop working.
You can change the Real-Time Clock settings in the TOSHIBA Setup
Utility. Refer to Real Time Clock for further information.
The RTC battery of the computer must be replaced only by your dealer or
by a TOSHIBA service representative. The battery can explode if not
properly replaced, used, handled, or disposed of. Dispose of the battery as
required by local ordinances or regulations.
Care and use of the battery pack
This section provides the important safety precautions in order to handle
your battery pack properly.
Refer to the enclosed Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort for
detailed precautions and handling instructions.
Make sure the battery is securely installed in the computer before
attempting to charge the battery pack. Improper installation might
generate smoke or fire, or cause the battery pack to rupture.
Keep the battery pack out of reach of infants and children. It can
cause injury.
The battery pack can explode if not replaced, used, handled or
disposed of properly. Dispose of the battery as required by local
ordinances or regulations. Use only batteries recommended by
TOSHIBA as replacements.
Charge the battery pack only in an ambient temperature from 5
through 35 degrees Celsius. Otherwise, the electrolyte solution might
leak, battery pack performance might deteriorate, and the battery life
might be shortened.
Never install or remove the battery pack without first turning off the
power and disconnecting the AC adaptor. Never remove the battery
pack while the computer is in Sleep Mode, as data might be lost.
