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 all country/region. The adaptor converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage supplied to this tablet. User's Manual 3-6 TOSHIBA LT170 Figure 3-2 The AC adaptor & power cable 1. USB connector 3. Power connector 2. Power cable 4. AC adaptor 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 in the User’s Manual. 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. User's Manual 3-7 TOSHIBA LT170 Never place your tablet or AC adaptor on a wooden surface, furniture, or any other surface that could be marred by exposure to heat since the tablet base and AC adaptor's surface increase in temperature during normal use.
