Getting Started

Connecting the AC adaptor

Attach the AC adaptor when you need to charge the battery or you want to

operate from AC power. It is also the fastest way to get started, because

the battery pack will need to be charged before you can operate from

battery power.
The AC adaptor can be connected to any power source supplying from 100

to 240 volts and 50 or 60 hertz. For details on using the AC adaptor to

charge the battery pack, refer to Chapter 6,

Power and Power-Up Modes

.

1. Connect the power cord to the AC adaptor.

Connecting the power cord to the AC adaptor

Use only the AC adaptor supplied as an accessory. Other AC adaptors

have different voltage and terminal polarities and use of them may produce

heat and smoke or even result in fire or rupture.

Use only the AC adaptor supplied with your computer or an equivalent

adaptor that is compatible. Use of any incompatible adaptor could

damage your computer. TOSHIBA assumes no liability for any damage

caused by use of an incompatible adaptor.

When you connect the AC adaptor to the computer, always follow the

steps in the exact order as described in the User's Manual. Connecting

the power cable to a live electrical outlet should be the last step

otherwise the adaptor DC output plug could hold an electrical change

and cause an electrical shock or minor bodily injury when touched. As

a general safety precaution, avoid touching any metal parts.
