User’s Manual EN-6
TOSHIBA FOLIO 100
■ Never attempt to disassemble or repair an AC adaptor.
Doing any of the above may damage the cables, and/or result in a fire
or electric shock, possibly resulting in serious injury.
■ Always confirm that the power plug (and extension cable plug if used)
has been fully inserted into the socket, to ensure a secure electrical
connection. Failure to do so may result in a fire or electric shock,
possibly resulting in serious injury.
■ Be careful if you use a multiple connector. An overload on one socket
could cause a fire or electric shock, possibly resulting in serious injury.
■ If dust gets on the power plug connectors or connector base, turn the
power off and disconnect the power plug. Then clean the connector
and/or connector base with a dry cloth. Continuing to use the product
without cleaning the power plug may result in a fire or an electric shock,
possibly resulting in serious injury.
■ Always use the TOSHIBA AC adaptor that was provided with your
product, or use AC adaptors specified by TOSHIBA to avoid any risk of
fire or other damage to the product. Use of an incompatible AC adaptor
could cause fire or damage to the product possibly resulting in serious
injury. TOSHIBA assumes no liability for any damage caused by use of
an incompatible adaptor or charger.
■ 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.
■ Never attempt to connect or disconnect a power plug with wet hands.
Failure to follow this instruction could result in an electric shock,
possibly resulting in serious injury.
■ Never leave small parts such as covers, caps and screws within the
reach of infants or small children. Swallowing a small part may cause
choking and suffocation resulting in death or serious injury. If a part is
swallowed, immediately take appropriate emergency action and consult
a doctor.
■ Never allow any liquids to spill into any part of your product, and never
expose the product to rain, water, seawater or moisture. Exposure to
liquid or moisture can cause electric shock or fire, resulting in damage
or serious injury. If any of these eventualities should accidentally occur,
immediately:
1. Tu rn off the product.
2. Disconnect the AC adaptor from the power plug socket and product.
Do not turn on the power again, until you have taken the product to an
authorized service center. Failure to follow these instructions could
result in serious injury or permanent damage to the product.
■ Never place your product or AC adaptor on a wooden surface, furniture,
or any other surface that could be marred by exposure to heat since the
product base and AC adaptor’s surface increase in temperature during
normal use.
User’s Manual EN-7
TOSHIBA FOLIO 100
■ Always place your product or AC adaptor on a flat and hard surface that
is resistant to heat damage.
■ Never place your product where it will be exposed to excess heat, such
as in direct sunlight, an unventilated vehicle or near a heater. This may
result in a system failure, malfunction, loss of data or damage to the
product.
■ Never place your product in a location where it will be exposed to
extremely low temperatures. This may result in a system failure,
malfunction or loss of data.
■ Never subject your product to sudden temperature variations. This may
result in condensation, causing a system failure, malfunction or loss of
data.
■ Never operate your product on AC power during a thunderstorm. If you
see lightning or hear thunder, immediately turn off the product. An
electric surge caused by the storm, may result in a system failure, loss
of data or hardware damage.
■ Always use the battery pack supplied as an accessory or an equivalent
battery pack specified in the User’s Manual. Other battery packs have
different voltage and terminal polarities. Use of non-conforming battery
packs could generate smoke or cause fire or rupture, possibly resulting
in serious injury.

Getting Started & Grand Tour
This chapter provides an equipment checklist, grand tour of your device
and basic information to start using your device.
Some of the features described in this manual may not function properly if
you use an operating system that was not pre-installed by TOSHIBA.
Getting Started
■ All users should be sure to read the section Initial Setup.
This section provides basic information to start using your device. It covers
the following topics:
■ Connecting the AC adaptor
■ Turning on the power
■ Initial Setup
■ Device options menu
■ Turning off the power
■ 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 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.
TOSHIBA FOLIO 100
User’s Manual EN-9
TOSHIBA FOLIO 100
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)
(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.
User’s Manual EN-10
TOSHIBA FOLIO 100
■ 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. T OSHIBA 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.
■ When you connect the AC adaptor to the device, always follow the
steps in the exact order as described in the User’s Manual. Connecting
the power cable to a live electrical outlet should be the last step
otherwise the adaptor DC output plug could hold an electrical charge
and cause an electrical shock or minor bodily injury when touched. As
a general safety precaution, avoid touching any metal parts.
■ Never place your device or AC adaptor on a wooden surface, furniture,
or any other surface that could be marred by exposure to heat since
the device base and AC adaptor’s surface increase in temperature
during normal use.
■ Always place your device or AC adaptor on a flat and hard surface that
is resistant to heat damage.
1. Connect the power cord to the AC adaptor.
2. Connect the AC adaptor’s DC output plug to the DC IN 19V jack on the
right side of the device.
3. Plug the power cord into a live wall outlet - the Power/Battery indicator
on the display panel of the device should glow.
User’s Manual EN-11
TOSHIBA FOLIO 100
