Battery pack
When the AC adaptor is not connected, the computer’s main power
source is a removable lithium ion battery pack, also referred to in this
manual as the battery.
You can purchase additional battery packs for extended use of the
computer away from an AC power source.
The battery is a disposable item. When its operation becomes short even
when fully charged, replace it with a new one.
The 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.
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.
Battery type " PA3250U-1BAS" or " PA3250U-1BRS " is for use with
TOSHIBA Notebook PC, model "Satellite A30".
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:

The computer’s RTC battery is a lithium ion 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.
