Connecting the AC adaptor
When battery power becomes low, you must recharge it.
Use only the tablet connected to an AC power source or TOSHIBA Tablet
Dock to charge the battery. Never attempt to charge the battery with any
other charger.
The AC adaptor can automatically adjust to any voltage ranging from 100
to 240 volt and to a frequency of either 50 or 60 hertz, enabling you to use
this product in almost any country/region. The adaptor converts AC power
to DC power and reduces the voltage supplied to this tablet.

Depending on the model, either a 2-pin or 3-pin AC adaptor will be
bundled with the tablet.
The supplied power cable conforms to safety rules and regulations in
the region the tablet is bought and should not be used outside of this
region. In order to use the AC adaptor or tablet in other regions, you
should buy a power cable that conforms to the safety rules and
regulations in that particular region.
Attach the AC adaptor 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 will need to be charged before you can operate from battery
power.
Always use the TOSHIBA AC adaptor that was included with your
tablet, or use AC adaptors specified by TOSHIBA to avoid any risk of
fire or other damage to the tablet. Use of an incompatible AC adaptor
could cause fire or damage to the tablet possibly resulting in serious
injury. TOSHIBA assumes no liability for any damage caused by use
of an incompatible adaptor.

Never plug the AC adaptor into a power source that does not
correspond to both the voltage and the frequency specified on the
regulatory label of the unit. Failure to do so could result in a fire or
electric shock, possibly resulting in serious injury.
Always use or purchase power cables that comply with the legal
voltage and frequency specifications and requirements in the country
of use. Failure to do so could result in a fire or electric shock, possibly
resulting in serious injury.
When you connect the AC adaptor to the tablet, always follow the
steps in the exact order as described below. Connecting the plug to a
live electrical outlet should be the last step otherwise the 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.
