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 .
Use of the wrong adaptor could damage your computer. TOSHIBA
assumes no liability for any damage in such case. The current rating for
the computer is 19 VDC, 4.74 amperes.
