Do not expose the computer to fire. The battery could explode.
Do not turn on the computer’s power again until an authorized 
Toshiba service provider has checked it for safety. Continued use 
could cause a fire or rupture possibly resulting in serious injury or 
computer failure including but not limited to the loss of data.
Maintaining your battery
Fully discharging your battery pack will allow better accuracy of 
the battery meter.

Periodically, disconnect the computer from a power source and 
operate it on battery power until the battery pack fully 
discharges.

into a fire, and never allow exposure to a heating apparatus (e.g., 
microwave oven). Heat can cause a computer to explode and/or 
release caustic liquid, both which may possibly cause serious injury.
Discard this computer in accordance with applicable laws and 
regulations.
