General Safety Instructions

Please read the following safety and operating instructions before using your 

Product. Keep the information near your Product for future reference. 
To reduce the risk of fi re, bodily injury and/or damage to your Product, please 

observe all of the following instructions:
AC Adaptor

Always use the Toshiba AC adaptor that was provided with your Product or as 

specifi ed by Toshiba. 
Base or Palm Rest

Avoid extended contact between Product base or palm rest and your skin. Under 

certain operating conditions such prolonged contact may result in skin irritation 

and/or heat injury. Consider using a hard computer insulating pad or similarly 

suitable hard insulating material when using Product on your lap.
(Internal) Battery

cleaners or aerosol cleaners. The injected combustible gas produced by these 

types of cleaners may remain inside of your product. The electrostatic spark from

result in an explosion, fi re, or burn injury. Instead use a lightly dampened cloth for 

cleaning in general and remove dust with a dry cloth.

your muscles to avoid strain. Adjust your chair, feet and Product accordingly 

to achieve optimal working posture. Please refer to Toshiba’s “User Comfort
