Getting Started
Connecting the AC adaptor
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. The AC adaptor can be connected to any power source supplying 
from 100 to 240 volts and 50 or 60 hertz. For details on using the AC adaptor 
to charge the battery pack, refer to Chapter 6, Power System.
1. Connect the power cord to the AC adaptor.

3. Plug the power cord into alive wall outlet. The Battery and DC IN 
indicators on the front of the computer should glow.
Use of the wrong adaptor could damage your computer. TOSHIBA assumes 
no liability for any damage in such case. The output rating for the computer 
is 15 volts DC.
