through the responsible use of natural resources and the adoption of waste
management strategies that focus on recycling and reuse. This Directive requires
producers of electrical and electronic products put on the market in European
Union (EU) member countries after August 2005 to mark such products with a
crossed-out wheeled bin with a black bar symbol. If the product’s battery or
accumulator contains more than the specified values of lead (Pb), mercury (Hg),
and/or cadmium (Cd) defined in the Battery Directive (2006/66/EC), then the
chemical symbols for lead (Pb), mercury (Hg) and/or cadmium (Cd) will appear
below the crossed out wheeled bin symbol on the battery.
Supplementary
Information:
*The product complies with the
requirements of the Low Voltage
Directive 73/23/EEC, the EMC Directive
89/336/EEC and/or the R&TTE

O: allowed ×: forbidden
❖To remain in conformance with European spectrum usage laws for
Wireless LAN operation, the above 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channel
limitations apply. The user should use the wireless LAN utility to
check the current channel of operation. If operation is occurring
outside of the allowable frequencies as listed above, the user must
cease operating the Wireless LAN at that location and consult the
local technical support staff responsible for the wireless network.
❖The 5 GHz Turbo mode feature is not allowed for operation in any
European Community country.

Bluetooth®Wireless Technology Interoperability
Bluetooth®Cards from TOSHIBA are designed to be interoperable with
any product with Bluetooth wireless technology that is based on Frequency
Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) radio technology, and is compliant to:
❖Bluetooth Specification as defined and approved by The Bluetooth
Special Interest Group.
❖Logo certification with Bluetooth wireless technology as defined by
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group.
Bluetooth wireless technology is a new innovative technology, and TOSHIBA has
not confirmed compatibility of its Bluetooth products with all computers and/or
equipment using Bluetooth wireless technology other than TOSHIBA portable
computers.
Always use Bluetooth cards from TOSHIBA in order to enable wireless networks
over two or more (up to a total of seven) TOSHIBA portable computers using these
cards. Please contact TOSHIBA computer product support on Web site
http://www.toshiba-europe.com/computers/tnt/bluetooth.htm in Europe or
pcsupport.toshiba.com in the United States for more information.
When you use Bluetooth cards from TOSHIBA close to 2.4 GHz Wireless
LAN devices, Bluetooth transmissions might slow down or cause errors. If
you detect certain interference while you use Bluetooth cards from
TOSHIBA, always change the frequency, move your computer to the area
outside of the interference range of 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN devices
(40 meters/43.74 yards or more) or stop transmitting from your computer.
Please contact TOSHIBA computer product support on Web site
http://www.toshiba-europe.com/computers/tnt/bluetooth.htm in Europe or
pcsupport.toshiba.com in the United States for more information.
Bluetooth and Wireless LAN devices operate within the same radio
frequency range and may interfere with one another. If you use Bluetooth
and Wireless LAN devices simultaneously, you may occasionally
experience a less than optimal network performance or even lose your
network connection. If you should experience any such problem,
immediately turn off either one of your Bluetooth or Wireless LAN.
Please contact Toshiba computer product support on Web site

Approved Countries/Regions for use (Bluetooth®wireless
technology)
Bluetooth®Card from Toshiba equipment is approved to the radio standard
by the countries/regions in the following table.
Do not use this equipment except in the countries/regions in the following
table.
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology and Your Health
The products with Bluetooth®wireless technology, like other radio devices,
emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted
by devices with Bluetooth wireless technology however is much less than
the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile
phones.
Because products with Bluetooth wireless technology operate within the
guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations,
TOSHIBA believes Bluetooth wireless technology is safe for use by
consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of
the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and
committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive
research literature.
