Replacing the battery pack
The battery pack is classified as a consumable item.
The operating life of the battery pack will gradually reduce through
repeated charging and discharging. It will need to be replaced when it
reaches the end of its operating life.
You might also replace a discharged battery pack with a charged spare
when you are operating your computer away from an AC power source.
This section explains how to remove and install the battery pack.
To remove a discharged battery pack, follow the steps below.
1. Save your work.
2. Turn the computer’s power off. Make sure the Power indicator is off.
3. Remove all cables connected to the computer.
4. Close the LCD display panel and turn the computer upside down.
5. Slide the battery lock (1) to the unlock position ( ). (Move it completely
to the left).
Using a battery pack other than one supplied or specified by TOSHIBA
(PA3356U) for this PC would interfere with the computer's display when
open and could damage the LCD display panel.
■ 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.
■ In Hibernation Mode, data will be lost if you remove the battery pack or
disconnect the AC adaptor before the save is completed. Wait for the
HDD indicator to go out.
■ Do not touch the battery release latch while holding the computer or the
battery pack might fall out due to the unintentional release of the
battery release latch and cause injuries.
