1010 Battery pack
Important notice for replacing a battery pack:
ThinkVantage Toolbox has an automatic battery diagnostic that determines if the battery pack is defective. A battery
pack FRU should not be replaced unless this diagnostic shows that the battery is defective.
The only exception to this is if the battery pack is physically damaged or a customer is reporting a possible safety issue.
If ThinkVantage Toolbox is not installed in the computer, the customer should download this program before a
non-physically damaged battery pack is replaced. Note that a physically damaged battery pack is non-warranty
replacement.
