Connecting The Ac Adaptor - Toshiba Satellite 5200 Series User Manual

Connecting the AC adaptor

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 pack
will need to be charged before you can operate from battery power.
The AC adaptor can be connected to any power source supplying from 100 to 240
volts and 50 or 60 hertz. For details on using the AC adaptor to charge the battery
pack, refer to Chapter 6,
CAUTION: Use of the wrong adaptor could damage your computer.
TOSHIBA assumes no liability for any damage in such case. The current
rating for the computer is 5.0 amperes.
