Running the computer on battery power The computer contains a removable Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery that provides power when you are away from an AC outlet. You can recharge it many times. Battery Notice Battery life rating is for comparison purposes only, and does not indicate the battery life that will be obtained by any individual user. Actual battery life may vary considerably from specifications depending on product model, configuration, applications, power management settings and features utilized, as well as the natural performance variations produced by the design of individual components. The battery life rating is only achieved on the select models and configurations tested by Toshiba under the specific test settings at the time of publication and is not an estimate of a system's battery life under any conditions other than the specific test settings. Recharge time varies depending on usage. Battery may not charge while the computer is consuming full power. After a period of time, the battery will lose its ability to perform at maximum capacity and will need to be replaced. This is normal for all batteries. To purchase a new battery pack, see the accessories information included with your computer or visit the Toshiba Web site at accessories.toshiba.com. Use only batteries designed to work with your Toshiba computer. To ensure that the battery maintains its maximum capacity, operate the computer on battery power at least once a month. The Lithium-Ion battery has no memory effect so it is not necessary to let the battery fully discharge each time. However, for better accuracy of the battery meter, it is helpful to fully discharge the battery periodically. Please see "Maintaining your battery" on page 103 for procedures. If the computer is continuously operated on AC power, either through an AC adaptor or a port replicator (if applicable to your system), for an extended period (more than a month), the battery may fail to retain a charge. This may shorten the life of the battery, and may cause the battery meter to be inaccurate.

for detailed information.
Running the computer on battery power
The computer contains a removable Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery
that provides power when you are away from an AC outlet. You can
recharge it many times.
Battery Notice
Battery life rating is for comparison purposes only, and does not
indicate the battery life that will be obtained by any individual user.
Actual battery life may vary considerably from specifications
depending on product model, configuration, applications, power
management settings and features utilized, as well as the natural
performance variations produced by the design of individual
components. The battery life rating is only achieved on the select
models and configurations tested by Toshiba under the specific test
settings at the time of publication and is not an estimate of a
system’s battery life under any conditions other than the specific
test settings.
Recharge time varies depending on usage. Battery may not charge
while the computer is consuming full power. After a period of time,
the battery will lose its ability to perform at maximum capacity and
will need to be replaced. This is normal for all batteries. To
purchase a new battery pack, see the accessories information
included with your computer or visit the Toshiba Web site at
accessories.toshiba.com
. Use only batteries designed to work with
your Toshiba computer.
To ensure that the battery maintains its maximum capacity,
operate the computer on battery power at least once a month. The
Lithium-Ion battery has no memory effect so it is not necessary to
let the battery fully discharge each time. However, for better
accuracy of the battery meter, it is helpful to fully discharge the
battery periodically. Please see
“Maintaining your battery” on
page 103
for procedures. If the computer is continuously operated
on AC power, either through an AC adaptor or a port replicator (if
applicable to your system), for an extended period (more than a
month), the battery may fail to retain a charge. This may shorten the
life of the battery, and may cause the battery meter to be inaccurate.
