CPU performance may vary from specifications under certain conditions such as the use of battery instead of AC power, certain external peripherals, certain multimedia applications or network connections, complex modeling software and in areas with low air pressure at high altitude (1,000 metres above sea level) and/or certain temperatures. CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design configuration. Under some conditions, your computer may automatically shut down as a normal protective measure. To avoid risk of lost data, please make periodic back-up copies. For optimum performance, use your computer only under recommended conditions. Please read detailed ristrictions in the product resource guide, visit the Toshiba web site: www.computers.toshiba-europe.com and/or contact Toshiba Technical Support. Graphics processor unit (GPU) performance may vary depending on product model, design configuration, applications, power management settings and features utilized. Part of the main system memory may be used by the graphics system and therefore reduce the amount of main system memory available. For PCs configured with 4 GB of system memory, the full system memory space for computing activities will be considerably less and will vary by model and system configuration. For information about upgrading your system memory please refer to the user manual or contact your local Toshiba service provider. One GB means one billion bytes, accessible capacity may be less. Wired and wireless communication capabilities to be applied in countries where approved. Battery life may vary depending on applications, power management settings and features utilized. Recharge time varies depending on usage. Battery may not charge while computer is consuming full power. After a period of time, the battery will lose its ability to perform at maximum capacity and will need to be replaced. This is normal for all batteries. To purchase a new battery pack, see your accessories information that shipped with your computer or visit the Toshiba web site at www.computers.toshiba-europe.com. Small bright dots may appear on your TFT display when you turn on your PC. Your display contains an extremely large number of thin-film transistors (TFT) and is manufactured using high-precision technology. Any small bright dots that may appear on your display are an intrinsic characteristic of the TFT manufacturing technology. Weight may vary depending on product configuration, vendor components, manufacturing variability and options selected. Please check your system specifications to ensure optimal results. Certain notebook chassis are designed to accommodate all possible configurations for an entire product series. Your selected model may not have all the features and specifications corresponding to all of the icons or switches shown on the notebook chassis. Performance may vary depending on product model, configuration, video content/format/settings as well as the performance variations of individual hardware components. Results were achieved on select models and configurations tested by Toshiba at the time of publication.
