Charging the main battery

To charge the main battery while it is in your computer, plug
the computer into a live electrical outlet. The battery charges
whether the computer is on or off.
Running the computer on battery power
For optimum DVD performance, Toshiba recommends that you
play DVDs while running on AC power rather than on battery
power.
Battery life is less than when using similar applications in the
Windows operating system.
Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the
computer, the brightness of the LCD Screen will deteriorate.
This is an intrinsic characteristic of LCD technology.
Screen will dim when the computer is operated on battery
power and you may not be able to increase the brightness of
the screen
.
TECHNICAL NOTE: The RTC battery does not charge while the
computer is turned off, even when AC power is attached.
TECHNICAL NOTE: When your computer is using all of the
power provided by the AC Adaptor to run applications,
features, and devices, the recharging of the battery can not
occur. Your computer's Power Saver utility can be used to
select a power level setting that reduces the power required for
system operation and will allow the battery to recharge.
