Energy Star
The notebook from Fujits u Siemens Computers is designed to conserve
electricity by dropping to less than 8 W when i t goes into standby/ suspend
mode and to less than 3 W when it goes into OFF mode. With this l evel of
power management, the notebook qual i fies for the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency's (EPA) Energy Star Computers award.
The EPA estimates that comput er equipment uses 5 % percent of all bus iness electricity and that
this is growing rapidly. If all desk top PCs and peripherals enter a low-power mode when not in use,
the overall savings in elect ric ity could amount to $ 2 milliard annually. These s av i ngs could also
prevent the emission of 20 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere - the equivalent of 5
million automobiles.
As an Energy Star P artner, Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH has determi ned t hat this product
meets the Energy S tar guidelines for energy eff i ciency.

(1) This device may not cause interference, and, (2) Thi s device must ac cept any interference,
including interferenc e that may cause undesi red operat i on of this device.
FCC Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply wi t h the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of t he FCC Rul es. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful int erf erence in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy . If not installed and used in accordance with t he i nstructions, it may
cause harmful interference to radio communic ations.
However, there is no guarantee that int erference will not occur in a particular installation.

Manufacturer’s notes
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or televis i on reception, which can be
determined by turning the equi pm ent off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct t he
interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the rec ei ving antenna.
2. Increase the dist ance between the equipment and the rece i ver.
3. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit di f ferent from the one the receiver is connected
to.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Please note the foll owi ng regul atory information related to the optional radio devic e.
FCC Radio Frequency Exposure statement
This radio device has been evaluated under FCC Bulletin OET 65C and f ound compliant with the
requirements as set forth in CFR 47 Sections 2.1091, 2.1093, and 15.247 (b) (4) addressi ng RF
Exposure from radio frequency devices. The radi ated output power of this radio dev i ce is far below
the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Neve rt hel ess, this devi ce shall be used in such a m anner
that the potential for human contact during normal operat i on i s minimized. When using this device, a
certain separation distance between antenna and nearby persons must be maintained t o ensure RF
exposure complianc e. In order to comply wit h RF exposure limits es tablished in the ANSI C95.1
standards, the distance between the antennas and t he user should not be less t han 20 cm (8
inches).
Regulatory Notes and Statements
Radio device, Health and A uthorization for use Radio f requency electromagnetic energy is emitted
from the radio devices. The energy levels of these emissions, however, are far much less than the
electromagnetic energy emissions from wi rel ess devices such as mobile phones. Radio dev i ces are
safe for use by c onsumers because they operate within the guidelines f ound i n radi o frequency
safety st andards and recommendations.
The use of the radio devic es may be restricted i n some situations or environments, such as:
• On board an airplane, or
• In an explosive env i ronm ent, or
• In situations where t he interference risk t o other devices or servi ces is perceived or identified
as harmful.
In cases in whic h the policy regarding use of radi o devices in specific environments i s not clear
(e.g., airports, hospitals, chemi cal/oil/gas industrial plants, private buildings), obtain authori zation to
use these devices prior to operating the equipment.
