Real Time Clock battery 
The Real Time Clock (RTC) battery provides power for the internal real 
time clock and calendar. It also maintains the system configuration. 
If the RTC battery becomes completely discharged, the system loses this 
data and the real time clock and calendar stop working. The following 
message appears when you turn on the power: 
 
0250: RTC battery is low 
S
 
0251: CMOS checksum is inconsistent 
The computer’s RTC battery is a nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery and 
should be replaced only by your dealer or by a TOSHIBA service 
representative. The battery can explode if not properly replaced, used, 
handled or disposed of. Dispose of the battery as required by local 
ordinances or regulations. 
Care and use of the battery pack 
The battery pack is a vital component of portable computing. Taking 
proper care of it will help ensure longer operating time on battery power 
as well as a longer life for your battery pack. Follow the instructions in 
this section carefully to assure safe operation and maximum 
performance. 
Safety precautions 
Mishandling of batteries can cause death, serious injury or property 
damage. Carefully observe the following advisories: 
Danger: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation, which could result 
in death or serious injury, if you do not follow instructions. 
Warning: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which could result in 
death or serious injury, if you do not follow instructions. 
Caution: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which if not avoided, 
may result in moderate or minor injury or property damage. 
Note: Provides important information. 
Danger 
1.  Never try to dispose of the battery pack by burning or expose it to a 
heating device such as a microwave oven. The battery pack could 
explode and cause bodily injury. 
2.  Never try to disassemble, repair or otherwise tamper with a battery 
pack. The battery pack will overheat and ignite. Leakage of caustic 
alkaline solution or other electrolytic substances will cause fire or 
injury, possibly resulting in death or serious injury.
