Charging the batteries
NOTE
The battery needs to be charged before you can use it to
power the computer.
Charging the main battery
To charge the battery, plug the computer into a live wall
outlet. It takes several hours to charge the battery with the
computer off. It takes much longer to charge the battery while
the computer is on.
For optimum DVD performance, it is recommended that you
play DVDs while running the computer on AC power. In
addition, your computer's Power Saver utility can be used to
select a power level setting for DVD playback.
Battery charge time may vary depending on the applications,
power management settings, and features used.
Never leave batteries in the battery charger for more than a
week at a time. Doing so may reduce the potential charge of
the battery.
Use only battery chargers designed to work with your
notebook computer. You can order a Toshiba battery charger
from Toshiba's Web site at accessories.toshiba.com.
