Moving the computer
The computer is designed for rugged durability. However, a few simple precautions
taken when moving the computer will help ensure trouble-free operation.
Make sure all disk activity has ended before moving the computer. Check the
Disk
and
Slim Select Bay
indicators on the computer.
If a CD/DVD is in the drive, remove it. Also make sure the drawer is securely
closed.
Turn off the power to the computer.
Disconnect the AC adaptor and all peripherals before moving the computer.
Close the display. Do not pick up the computer by its display panel.
Close all port covers.
Use the carrying case when transporting the computer.
Heat dispersal
To protect from overheating, the CPU has an internal temperature sensor. If the
computer’s internal temperature rises to a certain level, the cooling fan is turned on
or the processing speed is lowered. You can select whether to control the CPU
temperature by turning on the fan first, then if necessary, lowering the CPU speed.
Or, by lowering the CPU speed first, then if necessary, turning on the fan. Use the
Cooling Method
item of the
Power Save Mode
window in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
Maximum
Turn on the fan first, then if necessary, lower the CPU
Performance
processing speed.
Performance
Use a combination of the fan and lowering the CPU
processing speed.
Battery optimized
Lower the CPU processing speed first, then if necessary
turn on the fan.
When the CPU temperature falls to a normal range, the fan is turned off and the CPU
operation returns to standard speed.
NOTE:
If the CPU temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with
either setting, the system automatically shuts down to prevent damage.
Data in memory will be lost.
