Getting Started
This chapter provides basic information to get you started using your
computer. It covers the following topics:
■ Connecting the AC adapter
■ Opening the display
■ Turning on the power
■ Starting up for the first time
■ Turning off the power
■ Restarting the computer
■ Restoring the pre-installed software from the Product Recovery media.
Connecting the AC adapter
Attach the AC adapter 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 adapter can be connected to any power source
supplying from 100 to 240 volts and 50 or 60 hertz. For details on using the
AC adapter to charge the battery pack, refer to Chapter 7, Power and
Power-Up Modes.
Be sure also to read Instruction Manual for Safety & Comfort. This guide,
which is included with the computer, explains product liability.
All users should be sure to carefully read the section Starting up for the first
time, which describes the actions to take when you turn on the power for
the first time.
Use of the wrong adapter could damage your computer. TOSHIBA
assumes no liability for any damage in such case. The output rating for the
computer is 19 volts DC.
