Secondary battery (option)
An optional secondary battery can be installed in the SelectBay to
increase your battery operating time. Note the caution on Resume mode
in the previous section Main battery.
The secondary 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.
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:
*** Bad RTC battery ***
Check system. Then press [F1] key . . . . .
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.
