Disposing of used batteries safely
You can recharge a main battery many times, so it should last for 
years. When the useful life of the battery expires or if the battery 
becomes damaged, you must discard it responsibly.
The documentation that came with your computer may include an 
insert regarding the disposal of batteries. If not, check with your 
local government for information on where to recycle or dispose 
of old batteries.
Only use replacement batteries recommended by Toshiba.
CAUTION: The computer uses a nickel metal hydride battery, 
which can explode if not handled or disposed of properly. 
Putting spent batteries in the trash is not only irresponsible, 
it may also be illegal. Dispose of the battery as required by 
local ordinances or regulations.
