209 Index.......................................................................................... 223 Introduction Welcome to the world of powerful, portable, multimedia computing. With your Toshiba computer, your work and entertainment can accompany you wherever you go. Your computer model may be ENERGY STAR® qualified. If the model you purchased is qualified, it is labeled with the ENERGY STAR® logo on the computer and the following information applies. Toshiba is a partner in the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) ENERGY STAR® Program and has designed this computer to meet the latest ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. Your computer ships with the power management options preset to a configuration that will provide the most stable operating environment and optimum system performance for both AC power and battery modes. To conserve energy, your computer is set to enter the low-power Sleep mode which shuts down the system and display within 15 minutes of inactivity in AC power mode. We recommend that you leave this and other energy saving features active, so that your computer will operate at its maximum energy efficiency. You can wake the computer from Sleep mode by pressing the power button. See the “Mobile Computing” section of the Toshiba User’s Guide for more information on using power management settings to conserve computer energy. 37 38 38 38 According to the EPA, a computer meeting the new ENERGY STAR® specifications will use between 20% and 50% less energy depending on how it is used. If all U.S. household and businesses replaced old computers with new ENERGY STAR® qualified models, we would save more than $1.8 billion in energy costs over the next five years and avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to more than 2.7 million cars. If every computer purchased by businesses next year met the new ENERGY STAR® requirements, businesses would save more than $210 million over the lifetime of those models. That is equivalent to lighting 120 million square feet of U.S. commercial building space each year. During 2006 Americans, with the help of ENERGY STAR®, saved about $14 billion dollars on their utility bills and avoided greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those from 25 million vehicles.

NOTE This computer is compatible with European Union Directive 2002/95/EC, Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS), which restricts use of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE. Toshiba requires its computer component suppliers to meet RoHS requirements and verifies its suppliers’ commitment to meeting RoHS requirements by conducting component sampling inspections during the product design approval process.
