•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 5°C to 30°C (41°F to 86° F) or >25°C (77°F) at high altitude (all temperature references

Satellite A75-Series Revision 1.1 09-28-2004 CBB CB v_1.10 Page 5 of 8
3Hard Drive Capacity Disclaimer.
1 Gigabyte (GB) means 1000 x 1000 x 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 x 1024 x 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.
4TFT 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.
Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the computer, the brightness of the LCD Screen will deteriorate. This is an intrinsic characteristic of LCD technology.
Screen will dim when the computer is operated on battery power and you may not be able to increase the brightness of the screen.
5FCC 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.
6Weight Disclaimer
Weight may vary depending on product configuration, vendor components, manufacturing variability and options selected.
7General Battery Life Disclaimer or Business Winstone® 2002 BatteryMark™ Version 1.0 Battery Life Data Disclaimer
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. To purchase a new battery pack, see the accessories information that shipped with your computer or visit the Toshiba web
site at accessoryfinder.toshiba.com.
