The "System ON CDP Charge Mode" might not work with certain external devices even if they are compliant with the USB specifications. In those cases, use a USB port without "USB Sleep and Charge function" or disable "System ON CDP Charge Mode". It is recommended that AC adaptor be connected to the computer while supplying USB bus power (DC5V, 1.5A). When your computer battery capacity is too low to continue, "System ON CDP Charge Mode" might not work. In those cases, connect the AC adaptor and reboot the computer. Always use the USB cable that was included with your USB device. When "System ON CDP Charge Mode" or "USB Sleep and Charge function" is enabled, the "USB Wakeup" function might not work. In that case, use a USB port without "USB Sleep and Charge function" or disable both "System ON CDP Charge Mode" and "USB Sleep and Charge function". Using the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Protection Some models have the function for reducing the risk of damage on the Hard Disk Drive. Using an acceleration sensor built into the computer, HDD Protection detects vibration shocks and similar signs of movement of the computer, and automatically moves the Hard Disk Drive head to a safe position to reduce the risk of damage that might be caused by head-to-disk contact. HDD Protection function does not guarantee that the Hard Disk Drive will not be damaged. During audio/video playback, when the computer detects a shock or vibration and the Hard Disk Drive's head is parked, the playback might be temporarily interrupted. HDD Protection cannot be used in models that are equipped with SSD. When vibration is detected, a notification is displayed on the screen, and the icon in the Taskbar changes to the protection state. This message is displayed until the OK button is pressed or 30 seconds pass. When vibration subsides, the icon returns to the normal state. Setting up HDD Protection You can change HDD Protection settings. To open the utility, click Start -> TOSHIBA -> System Settings -> HDD Protection. The utility can also be started from the icon in the Taskbar or from the Control Panel. User's Manual 5-11
