Other documentation

Your computer comes with all or some of the following documentation in

addition to this resource guide:

❖Electronic user’s guide installed on your system.

❖Guides for other software that may come preinstalled.

❖Microsoft®Windows®XP operating system documentation.

❖For accessory information, visit Toshiba’s Web site at toshiba.com.

❖The Recovery CDs containing the programs that are preinstalled at the

factory and any bundled software. Keep these CDs in a safe and

convenient place.

Setting up your computer and getting started

Strain and stress injuries are becoming more common as people spend

more time using their computers. With a little care and proper use of the

equipment, you can work comfortably throughout the day.

WARNING: Using the computer keyboard incorrectly can result in discomfort and

possible injury. If your hands, wrists, and/or arms bother you while typing, stop using

the computer and rest. If the discomfort persists, consult a physician.

For more information, consult books on ergonomics, repetitive-strain

injury, and repetitive-stress syndrome.

Placement of the computer

Proper placement of the computer and external devices is important to

avoid stress-related injuries. Consider the following when placing your

computer.

❖Place the computer on a flat surface at a comfortable height and

distance. You should be able to type without twisting your torso or

neck, and look at the screen without slouching.

❖If you are using an external monitor, the top of the display should be

no higher than eye level.

❖If you use a paper holder, set it at about the same height and distance

as the screen.

Seating and posture

When using your computer, maintain good posture with your body relaxed

and your weight distributed evenly. Proper seating is a primary factor in

reducing work strain.

Precautions

Your notebook computer is designed to provide optimum safety and ease of

use, and to withstand the rigors of travel. You should observe certain

precautions to further reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the

computer.

CAUTION: Never apply heavy pressure to the computer or subject it to sharp impacts.

Excessive pressure or impact can damage computer components or otherwise cause

your computer to malfunction.

CAUTION: Some PC Cards become hot with prolonged use. If two cards are installed,

both can become hot even if only one is being used. Overheating of a PC Card can

result in errors or instability in its operation.

Be careful when you remove a PC Card that has been used for lengthy periods of time.

Important information on your computer’s built-in LCD sensor

Your computer has a built-in LCD (liquid crystal display) sensor located

near the left-hand corner of the palm rest. When the computer is on, the

LCD sensor detects when the display panel is closed.

Please do not place a magnetic object in the area of the left-hand corner of

the palm rest. A magnetic object placed there causes the LCD sensor to

erroneously activate.

For more information, see “Important information on your computer’s

built-in LCD sensor” in your electronic user’s guide.

Connecting to a power source

Your computer requires power to operate. Use the power cable and AC

adapter to connect the computer to a live electrical outlet, or to charge the

computer’s battery.

Power Cable and AC Adapter

CAUTION: Use only the AC adapter supplied with your computer or an equivalent

adapter that is compatible. Use of any incompatible adapter could damage your

computer. Toshiba assumes no liability for any damage caused by use of an

incompatible adapter.

When you connect the AC adapter to the computer, always follow the steps in the exact

order as described in the User's Manual. Connecting the power cable to a live electrical

outlet should be the last step otherwise the adapter 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.

DANGER: Hold the power cable by its plug when you connect/disconnect it. Do NOT

pull the cable itself. Doing so may damage the power cable and result in a short circuit

or electric shock.

To connect AC power to the computer:

1Connect the power cable to the AC adapter.

2Plug the AC adapter into the DC-IN on the back of the computer.

3Connect the power cable to a live electrical outlet.

If the electrical outlet is live, the system indicator panel’s AC power light

( ) glows green.

DANGER: Damaged power cables can cause fire or electric shock. Never modify,

forcibly bend, place heavy objects on top of, or apply heat to the power cable.

If the power cable becomes damaged or the plug overheats, discontinue use. There is a

risk of electric shock.

Never remove the power plug from the outlet with wet hands. Doing so may cause an

electric shock.

Connecting a printer

You can connect a USB-compatible printer to your computer through one

of the USB ports. You can also connect a parallel printer through the

parallel port.

To confirm a printer’s compatibility, check its documentation.

Connecting a USB printer

To achieve the connection, you need a suitable USB cable, which may

come with your printer. Otherwise, you can purchase one from a computer

or electronics store.

NOTE: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for connecting a USB printer to your

computer.

Connecting a parallel printer

To achieve the connection, you need a suitable cable, which may come

with your parallel printer. Otherwise, you can purchase one from a

computer or electronics store.

If you connect a parallel printer, do so before you turn on the computer.

NOTE: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for connecting a parallel printer to your

computer.

Installing additional memory (optional)

CAUTION: Before you install or remove a memory module, turn off the computer using

the Start menu. If you install or remove a memory module while the computer is in

Standby or Hibernation mode, data will be lost.

Your computer comes with enough memory to run most of today’s popular

applications. You may want to increase the computer’s memory if you use

complex software or process large amounts of data.

There are two memory slots. Your system may have both slots occupied.

CAUTION: If you use the computer for a long time, the memory modules will become

hot. If this happens, let the modules cool to room temperature before you replace them.

CAUTION: Do not try to install a memory module under the following conditions. You

can damage the computer and the module.

1. The computer is turned on.

2. The computer was shut down using Standby mode.

3. Power to the DVD-ROM or multi-function drive has been turned on.

CAUTION: Do not install or remove a memory module while the DVD-ROM or multi-

function drive power is on.
