Turning on the power
Initial setup
Getting to know Windows
Use a virus-check program and make sure that it is updated regularly.
Never format storage media without checking its content - formatting
destroys all stored data.
It is a good idea to back up the internal storage drive or other main
storage device to external media periodically. General storage media
is not durable or stable over long periods of time and under certain
conditions might result in data loss.
Before you install a device or application, save any data in memory to
the internal storage drive or other storage media. Failure to do so
might result in data loss.
Connecting the AC adaptor
Attach the AC adaptor when you want to charge the battery or operate from
AC power. The battery pack must be charged before you can operate from
battery power.
The AC adaptor can automatically adjust to any voltage ranging from 100
volts to 240 volts and to a frequency of either 50 hertz or 60 hertz, enabling
you to use this computer in almost any country/region. The adaptor
converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage supplied to this
computer.
Always use the TOSHIBA AC adaptor that was included with your
computer, or use AC adaptors specified by TOSHIBA to avoid any risk
of fire or other damage to the computer. Use of an incompatible AC
adaptor might 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.
Never plug the AC adaptor into a power source that does not
correspond to both the voltage range and the frequency specified on
the regulatory label of the unit. Failure to do so might 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 might result in a fire or electric shock, possibly
resulting in serious injury.
The supplied power cord conforms to safety rules and regulations in
the region the computer is bought and should not be used outside this
region. For use in other regions, buy power cords that conform to
safety rules and regulations in the particular region.
Do not use a 3-pin to 2-pin conversion plug.
