Power and
Battery pack
When the AC adaptor is not connected, the computer’s main power source is a removable lithium ion battery pack, also referred to in this manual as the battery.
You can purchase additional battery packs for extended use of the computer away from an AC power source.
The battery is a disposable item. When its operation becomes short even when fully charged, replace it with a new one.
The battery pack is a lithium ion battery, which can explode if not properly replaced, used, handled or disposed of. Dispose of the battery as required by local ordinances or regulations. Use only batteries recommended by TOSHIBA as replacements.
Do not remove the Battery Pack while the computer is in Standby mode. Data is stored in RAM, so if the computer loses power, it will be lost.
