REPLACE YOUR BATTERY PACK TODAY.

Toshiba has determined that certain Sony battery packs installed in Toshiba portable computers have caused fires.  Based on our investigation with Sony Corporation, we concluded that the battery cells in specific manufacturing lots could be affected and could result in a fire.  In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, we have elected to implement this battery pack replacement program, which is limited to specific manufacturing lots of the battery cells. Following the battery supplier’s recommendation, we are launching a new battery pack replacement program for affected battery packs.

Customers whose Toshiba portable computers contain the subject battery packs are eligible to receive a replacement battery pack free of charge.

We strongly recommend that customers participate in this new battery pack replacement program as soon as possible.

The subject battery packs will be replaced free of charge. This offer extends only to replacement of the subject battery packs, and does not include replacement of any Toshiba computer.

If you have an affected battery, you should stop using it immediately and remove it from your computer.
