Disposing of used batteries
The life of a battery pack depends on usage. When the battery 
pack needs replacing, the main battery light flashes amber 
shortly after you have fully recharged the battery.    
You must discard a battery if it becomes damaged.
Never attempt to dispose of a battery pack by burning or by 
throwing it into a fire, and never allow exposure to a heating 
apparatus (e.g., microwave oven). Heat can cause a battery 
pack to explode and/or release caustic liquid, both which may 
possibly cause serious injury.
Always dispose of used battery packs in compliance with all 
applicable laws and regulations. Put insulating tape, such as 
cellophane tape, on the electrode during transportation to 
avoid a possible short circuit, fire or electric shock. Failure to 
do so could possibly result in serious injury.
Always use the battery pack supplied as an accessory or an 
equivalent battery pack specified in the User's Manual. Other 
battery packs have different voltage and terminal polarities. 
Use of non-conforming battery packs could generate smoke or 
cause fire or rupture, possibly resulting in serious injury.
After repeated use, the batteries will finally lose their ability 
to hold a charge and you will need to replace them. Under 
certain applicable laws and regulations, it may be illegal to 
dispose of old batteries by placing them in the trash.
Please be kind to our shared environment. Check with your 
local government authority for details regarding where to 
recycle old batteries or how to dispose of them properly. If 
you cannot find the information you need elsewhere, call 
Toshiba at: (800) 457-7777.
