For the most up-to-date product information about your computer, or to stay current with the various computer software or hardware options, visit Toshibas Web site at pcsupport.toshiba.com. Central Processing Unit (CPU) Performance Disclaimer. CPU performance in your computer product may vary from specifications under the following conditions: use of certain external peripheral products use of battery power instead of AC power use of certain multimedia games or videos with special effects use of standard telephone lines or low speed network connections use of complex modeling software, such as high end computer aided design applications use of computer in areas with low air pressure (high altitude >1,000 meters or >3,280 feet above sea level) use of computer at temperatures outside the range of 5C to 30C (41F to 86 F) or >25C (77F) at high altitude (all temperature references are approximate and may vary depending on the specific computer model please refer to your Resource Guide or visit the Toshiba website at www.pcsupport.toshiba.com for details). CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design configuration. Under some conditions, your computer product may automatically shut-down. This is a normal protective feature designed to reduce the risk of lost data or damage to the product when used outside recommended conditions. To avoid risk of lost data, always make back-up copies of data by periodically storing it on an external storage medium. For optimum performance, use your computer product only under recommended conditions. Read additional restrictions under Environmental Conditions in your product Resource Guide. Contact Toshiba Technical Service and Support for more information. 3 Hard Disk Drive Disclaimer: 1 Gigabyte (GB) means 1000 * 1000 * 1000 = 1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. The computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 1024 * 1024 * 1024 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore may show less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if the product includes pre-installed operating system and/or application software. Actual formatted capacity may vary. 4 TFT Display Disclaimer: 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: Weight may vary depending on actual configuration. 5 FCC Modem Speed Disclaimer. Due to FCC limitations, speeds of 53 kbps are the maximum permissible transmission rates during download. Actual data transmission speeds will vary depending on line conditions. Wireless or Connectivity Claims. Wireless connectivity is subject to availability of access points. You might have to purchase additional software, hardware and/or services or pay for phone charges and air time, etc. to achieve the functionality as advertised. 6 Weight Disclaimer Weight may vary depending on product configuration, vendor components, manufacturing variability and options selected. 7 Battery: Battery life may vary depending on product model, configuration, 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.
