CPU performance may vary from specifications under certain conditions such as the use of battery instead of AC power, certain external peripherals, certain multimedia applications or network connections, complex modelling software and in areas with low air pressure at high altitude (1,000 metres above sea level) and/or certain temperatures. CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design configuration. Under some conditions, your computer may automatically shut down as a normal protective measure. To avoid risk of lost data, please make periodic back-up copies. For optimum performance, use your computer only under recommended conditions. Please read detailed restrictions in the product resource guide, visit the Toshiba website: computers.toshiba-europe.com and/or contact Toshiba Technical Support. • One GB means one billion bytes. • To be applied in countries where it is approved. • Battery life may vary depending on applications, power management settings and features utilised. 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 your accessories information that was shipped with your computer or visit the Toshiba website at computers.toshiba-europe.com. • Small bright dots may appear on your TFT display when you turn on your PC.
