Getting Started

■ 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 backup internal storage of the tablet to an external media. General storage media is not durable or stable over long periods of time and under certain conditions may result in data loss.

Connecting the AC adaptor

Use only the tablet connected to an AC power source or TOSHIBA Tablet Dock to charge the battery. Never attempt to charge the battery with any other charger.

The AC adaptor can automatically adjust to any voltage ranging from 100 to 240 volt 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 tablet.

■Depending on the model, either a 2-pin or 3-pin replaceable plug will be bundled with the tablet.

■The supplied power cable conforms to safety rules and regulations in the region the tablet is bought and should not be used outside of this region. In order to use the AC adaptor or tablet in other regions, you should buy a power cable that conforms to the safety rules and regulations in that particular region.

Getting Started

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 will need to be charged before you can operate from battery power.

■Always use the TOSHIBA AC adaptor that was included with your tablet, or use AC adaptors specified by TOSHIBA to avoid any risk of fire or other damage to the tablet. Use of an incompatible AC adaptor could cause fire or damage to the tablet 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.

■When you connect the AC adaptor to the tablet, always follow the steps in the exact order as described in the User’s Manual. Connecting the plug to a live electrical outlet should be the last step otherwise the 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 tablet or AC adaptor on a wooden surface, furniture, or any other surface that could be marred by exposure to heat since the tablet base and AC adaptor's surface increase in temperature during normal use.

■Always place your tablet or AC adaptor on a flat and hard surface that is resistant to heat damage.

1.Insert the provided replaceable plug into the AC adaptor.

2.Plug the USB connector of the power cable into the USB port on the AC adaptor.

Battery charging notice

The battery may not begin charging immediately under the following conditions:

■The battery is extremely hot or cold (if the battery is extremely hot, it might not charge at all). To ensure the battery charges to its full capacity, you should charge it at room temperature of between 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F).

■The battery is nearly completely discharged. In this instance you should leave the AC adaptor connected for a few minutes and the battery should begin charging.

The indicator may show a rapid decrease in battery operating time when you try to charge a battery under the following conditions:

■The battery has not been used for a long time.

■The battery has completely discharged and been left unattended for a long time.

In such cases you should follow the steps as detailed below:

1.Fully discharge the battery with the power on until the system automatically turns itself off.

2.Connect the AC adaptor to the docking interface of the tablet, and to a wall outlet that is supplying power.

3.Charge the battery until the multi function LED indicator (given that it is set as Power/battery indicator) is off.
