Be sure to use only a 12V DC power adapter that has been approved and supplied by Toshiba.
Always confirm that the power adapter plug (and extension cord plug, if used) is fully inserted
into the power jack, to ensure a secure electrical connection. Failure to do so may result in a
fire, electric shock, or serious injury.
Toshiba does not assume any liability for any damage caused by the use of an incompatible
adapter.
If you will not be using your CANVIO HOME device often, we recommend that you turn on the sleep mode setting to save power.
See
“Turn HDD standby on or off” on page 32
for instructions.
