Power and Power-Up Modes

8. Never expose the battery pack to abnormal shock, vibration or 

pressure. The battery pack’s internal protective device will fail, causing 

it to overheat, explode, ignite or leak caustic liquids possibly resulting in 

death or serious injury. 

9. Never let a battery pack become wet. A wet battery pack will overheat, 

ignite or rupture possibly resulting in death or serious injury. 

1. Never allow caustic electrolyte fluid leaked from a battery pack to 

contact your eyes, skin or clothing. If caustic electrolyte fluid should 

contact your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with large amounts of 

running water and seek medical attention, to help prevent eye damage. 

If electrolyte fluid should contact your skin immediately wash it under 

running water to prevent rash. If it contacts your clothes, promptly 

remove them to prevent the fluid from contacting your skin or eyes. 

2. Immediately turn off the power, disconnect the AC adaptor and remove 

the battery if any of the following events are observed in the battery 

pack: offensive or unusual odor, excessive heat, discoloration or 

deformation. Never use the computer again until it has been checked 

by a TOSHIBA service provider. It might generate smoke or fire, or the 

battery pack might rupture. 

3. Make sure the battery is securely installed in the computer before 

attempting to charge the battery pack. Improper installation could 

generate smoke or fire, or cause the battery pack to rupture. 

4. Keep the battery pack out of reach of infants and children. It can cause 

injury. 

1. Never continue to use a battery pack after its recharging capacity has 

become impaired, or after the display of a warning message indicating 

that the battery pack’s power is exhausted. Continued use of an 

exhausted or impaired battery pack could cause the loss of data. 

2. Never dispose of battery packs with normal trash. Bring them to your 

TOSHIBA dealer or to another recycling centre to save resources and 

prevent environmental damage. Cover the terminals with electrical tape 

to prevent short-circuits, which could cause the battery pack to ignite or 

rupture. 

3. Use only battery packs recommended by TOSHIBA as replacements. 
4. Always make sure the battery pack is installed correctly and securely. 

Otherwise, a battery pack could fall out and possibly cause injury. 

5. Charge the battery pack only in an ambient temperature between 5 and 

35 degrees Celsius. Otherwise, the electrolyte solution might leak, 

battery pack performance might deteriorate and the battery life might be 

shortened.
