Getting Started

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 6,

Power and

Power-Up Modes

Use of the wrong adapter could damage your computer. TOSHIBA

computer is 19 volts DC.
