Battery types
The computer has three types of batteries:
Battery Packs – main and secondary
Real Time Clock (RTC) battery
Main battery
When the AC power cord is not connected, the computer's main power source is a
removable lithium-ion polymer Battery Pack, also referred to in this manual as the
main battery. You can purchase Battery Packs for extended use of the computer
away from an AC power source.
CAUTION: The Battery Pack is a lithium-ion polymer 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.
The main battery recharges the RTC batteries. The main battery maintains the state
of the computer when you enable standby mode.
CAUTION: Do not remove the Battery Pack while the computer is in
standby mode. The computer could hang up the next time you turn it on
and data in memory will be lost. The computer could also hang up at
power on if it shut down automatically in standby mode because of a low
battery. In either of the above cases, the standby configuration will not
be saved.
