1Certain notebook chassis are designed to accommodate all possible configurations for an entire product series. Your select model may not have all the
features and specifications corresponding to all of the icons or switches shown on the notebook chassis, unless you have selected all those features.
2CPU performance in your computer product may vary from specifications under the following conditions:
1. Use of certain external peripheral products
2. Use of battery power instead of AC power
3. Use of certain multimedia, computer generated graphics or video applications
4. Use of standard telephone lines or low speed network connections
5. Use of complex modeling software, such as high end computer aided design applications
6. Use of several applications or functionalities simultaneously
7. Use of computer in areas with low air pressure (high altitude greater than 1,000 meters or greater than 3,280 feet above sea level)
8. 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 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.
3One (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 one or more pre-installed operating systems, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-
installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.

4Small 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.
5Graphics processor unit ("GPU") performance may vary depending on product model, design configuration, applications, power management settings and
features utilized. GPU performance is only optimized when operating in AC power mode and may decrease considerably when operating in battery power
mode. The graphics processor is optimized for this specific computer model and GPU performance will be slower than the standard nVIDIA® GeForce™ Go
6200/6600. GPU performance is only optimized at ambient temperatures between 5C and 30C.
6Due 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.
7Wireless connectivity is subject to availability of access points. You might have to purchase additional software, hardware and/or services or pay for phone
charges or air time to achieve the functionality as advertised. The transmission speed over the wireless LAN and the distance over which wireless LAN can
reach may vary depending on surrounding electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and configuration, and client design and
software/hardware configurations. The actual transmission speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed.
8Weight may vary depending on product configuration, vendor components, manufacturing variability and options selected.
9Battery 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 http://www.accessories.toshiba.com.
