Other Things to Note
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 a virus-check program and make sure it is updated regularly.
■
Never format storage media without checking its content. Formatting
destroys all stored data.
■
It is a good idea to periodically back up the internal hard disk or other
main storage device to external media. General storage media is not
durable or stable over long periods of time and under certain conditions
may result in data loss.
■
Before you install a device or application, save any data in memory to
the hard disk drive or other storage media. Failure to do so may result
in the loss of data.
■
Always use the TOSHIBA AC adaptor that was provided with your
computer and the TOSHIBA Battery Charger (that may have been
provided with your computer), or use AC adaptors and battery chargers
specified by TOSHIBA to avoid any risk of fire or other damage to the
computer. Use of an incompatible AC adaptor or Battery Charger could
cause fire or damage to the computer possibly resulting in serious
injury. TOSHIBA assumes no liability for any damage caused by use of
an incompatible adaptor or Battery Charger.
■
Never plug the AC adaptor or Battery Charger into a power source that
does not correspond to both the voltage and the frequency specified on
the regulatory label of the unit. Failure to do so could result in a fire or
electric shock, possibly resulting in serious injury.
■
Always use or purchase power cables that comply with the legal
voltage and frequency specifications and requirements in the country of
use. Failure to do so could result in a fire or electric shock, possibly
resulting in serious injury.
■
The supplied power cord conforms to safety rules and regulations in
