The battery pack has been designed so that you cannot 
install it with reverse polarity.

If the battery does not slide into the slot easily, move the battery 
release lock to the unlocked position and try again. Do not force the 
battery into position.

Reset the battery lock to the locked position.

10 Turn the computer right side up.

11 Reconnect any cables.

12 Restart the computer.

❖

Turn off the computer’s power immediately and 
disconnect the power cord from the power socket, if the 
battery pack produces an odor, overheats or changes 
color or shape while it is being used or charged. Carefully 
remove the battery pack from the computer.

❖

Never try to disassemble a battery pack.

❖

Never overcharge or reverse charge a battery. 
Overcharging will shorten its life and reverse charging 
could destroy it, causing the release of toxic fumes.

❖

Avoid touching the metal terminals of the battery with 
another metal object. Short-circuiting the battery will 
cause it to overheat and may cause permanent damage to 
the battery or the computer.

❖

Never incinerate a spent battery, as this will 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 www.toshibaaccessories.com.

❖

Reverse Polarity should be avoided with all batteries. The 
main battery is designed so that it cannot be installed in 
reverse polarity. 

❖

Charge the battery pack only in the computer or in a 
battery charger designated as an approved option.
