MultiMediaCard care
Do not write to a MultiMediaCard if the battery power is low. Low power
could affect writing accuracy.
Do not remove a MultiMediaCard while read/write is in progress.
The MultiMediaCard is designed so that it can be inserted only one
way. Do not try to force the card into the slot.
Do not leave a MultiMediaCard partially inserted in the slot. Press the
MultiMediaCard until you hear it click into place.
Do not twist or bend MultiMediaCards.
Do not expose MultiMediaCards to liquids or store in humid areas or lay
media close to containers of liquid.
After using a MultiMediaCard, return it to its case.
Do not touch the metal part or expose it to liquids or let it get dirty.
Memory expansion
You can install additional memory in the computer’s memory module slot to
increase the amount of RAM. This section describes how to install and
remove a memory module.
Set the write-protect switch to the lock position, if you do not want to record
data.
Place a mat beneath the computer to ensure that you do not scratch lid
when replacing the memory module - you must ensure that this mat
does not generate or hold a static electric charge.
When you install or remove a memory module, ensure that you do not
touch any other internal areas of the computer.
Use only memory modules approved by TOSHIBA.
Do not try to install or remove a memory module under the following
conditions as you can damage the computer and/or the module, and
you risk losing data:
a.
The computer is turned on.
b.
The computer was shut down using either Standby Mode or
Hibernation mode.
c. Wake-up on LAN is enabled.
Be careful not to let screws or other foreign matter fall into the
computer. It could cause malfunction or electric shock.
Expansion memory is a precision electronic component that may be
fatally damaged by static electricity. Since the human body can carry
static electricity, it is important that you discharge yourself before
touching or installing any expansion memory modules. To discharge
your body’s static electricity, simply touch any metal close to you with
bare hands.
