Charging the battery
The battery needs to be charged before you can use it to
power the computer.
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.
The battery may not start charging immediately if:
❖
The battery is extremely hot or cold.
To ensure that the battery charges to its full capacity, wait
until it reaches room temperature (50 to 80 degrees
Fahrenheit, 10 to 26 degrees Celsius).
❖
The battery is almost completely discharged.
Changes to these settings may result in system performance
or stability issues. Users who are not completely familiar with
the power management component of the system should use
the preset configuration. For assistance with setup changes,
contact Toshiba's InTouch Center.
Battery charge time may vary depending on the applications,
power management settings, and features used.
TECHNICAL NOTE: The battery does not charge while the
computer is consuming full power.
