Do not incinerate a spent battery, as this could cause it to 
explode and release toxic materials.
If a battery is leaking or damaged, replace it immediately. 
Use protective gloves when handling a damaged battery.
To replace the main battery, use an identical battery that 
you can purchase through to Toshiba Web site at
 
A reverse polarity condition should be avoided with all 
batteries. The main battery is designed so that it cannot 
be installed in reverse polarity. 
Charge the battery only in the computer or in a battery 
charger designated as an approved option.
When you install the battery pack, you should hear a 
click when it is seated properly.
Do not expose the battery pack to fire. The battery pack 
could explode.
