destroys all stored data.

■ It is a good idea to periodically back up 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 solid state drive or other storage media. Failure to do so may result in the loss of data.

Getting Started & Grand Tour

Connecting the AC adaptor

The AC adaptor can automatically adjust to any voltage ranging from 100 to 240 volts and to a frequency of either 50 or 60 hertz, enabling you to use this product in almost all country/region. The adaptor converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage supplied to this device.

(Sample Illustration) The AC adaptor (2-pin plug)

User’s Manual 5

Getting Started & Grand Tour

(Sample Illustration) The AC adaptor (3-pin plug)

■ Depending on the model, either a 2-pin or 3-pin adaptor/power lead will

be bundled with the device.

■ Do not use a 3-pin to 2-pin conversion plug.

■ The supplied power cord conforms to safety rules and regulations in

the region the device is bought and should not be used outside of this region. In order to use the adaptor/device in other regions, you should please buy a power cord that conforms to the safety rules and regulations in that particular region.

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.

■ Always use the TOSHIBA AC adaptor that was included with your

device, or use AC adaptors specified by TOSHIBA to avoid any risk of fire or other damage to the device. Use of an incompatible AC adaptor could cause fire or damage to the device 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 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

the region the device is bought and should not be used outside this region. For use in other regions, please 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.

Moving the computer

While the computer is designed for flexible day-to-day usage you should exercise a few simple precautions when moving it in order to help ensure trouble-free operation.

■ Turn off (shut down) the computer.

■ Disconnect the AC adaptor and all peripherals before moving the

computer.

■ Before carrying your computer, shut it down, disconnect the AC adaptor

and allow it to cool down - a failure to follow this instruction may result in minor heat injury.

■ Be careful not to subject the computer to impact or shock - a failure to

follow this instruction could result in damage to computer, computer failure or loss of data.

■ Never transport your computer with any cards installed - this may cause

damage to either the computer and/or the card resulting in product failure.

■ Always use a suitable carry case when transporting the computer.

■ When carrying your computer, be sure to hold it securely so that it does

not fall or hit anything.

■ Do not carry your computer by holding any of its protruding elements.

Basic Operations

Heat dispersal

To protect against overheating, the processor is equipped with an internal temperature sensor which activates a cooling fan or lowers the processing speed if the computer's internal temperature rises to a certain level. You are able to select whether to control this temperature by either turning on the fan first, then if necessary lowering the processor speed, or by lowering the processor speed first, then if necessary turning on the fan. Both of these functions are controlled through the Power Options.

When the processor's temperature falls within normal range, the fan will be turned off and the processor operation returned to its standard speed.

If the processor's temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with either setting, the computer automatically shuts down to prevent any damage. In this instance all unsaved data in memory will be lost.
