Moving the computer
Before moving your computer, even across the room, make sure all 
drive activity has ended (the internal storage drive and optical drive 
indicator lights stop glowing) and all external peripheral cables are 
disconnected.
Do not pick up the computer by its display panel or by the back. 
Doing so could damage the system.

*Toshiba EasyGuard

 technology comprises a number of features 
some of which may or may not be available on a particular Toshiba 
computer depending on the model selected. See 
easyguard.toshiba.com for detailed information.
Running the computer on battery power
Battery life may vary considerably from specifications depending 
on product model, configuration, applications, power management 
settings and features utilized, as well as the natural performance 
variations produced by the design of individual components. 
Published battery life numbers are achieved on select models and 
configurations tested by Toshiba at the time of publication. 
Recharge time varies depending on usage. Battery may not charge 
while the computer is consuming full power. 
After a period of time, the battery will lose its ability to perform at 
maximum capacity and will need to be replaced. This is normal for 
all batteries. To purchase a new battery pack, see the accessories 
information included with your computer or visit the Toshiba Web 
site at accessories.toshiba.com. Use only batteries designed to work 
with your Toshiba computer.
