Wireless LAN and Your Health

Wireless LAN products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency
electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by Wireless LAN
devices however is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted
by wireless devices like for example mobile phones.

Because Wireless LAN products operate within the guidelines found in
radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, TOSHIBA
believes Wireless LAN 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.

Regulatory information

In some situations or environments, the use of Wireless LAN may be
restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of
the organization. These situations may for example include:

❖ Using the Wireless LAN equipment on board airplanes, or
❖ In any other environment where the risk of interference to other

devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful.

If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices
in a specific organization or environment (e.g. airports), you are
encouraged to ask for authorization to use the Wireless LAN device prior to
turning on the equipment.

Bluetooth wireless technology is a new innovative technology, and
TOSHIBA has not confirmed compatibility of its Bluetooth products with all
PCs 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 PC 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 PC 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 PC. Please contact
TOSHIBA PC 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 PC product support on Web site http://

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 far much less than the
electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like for example 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.

In some situations or environments, the use of Bluetooth wireless technology
may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives
of the organization. These situations may for example include:

❖ Using the equipment with Bluetooth wireless technology on board

airplanes, or

❖ In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or

services is perceived or identified as harmful.

If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a
specific organization or environment (e.g. airports), you are encouraged to ask for
authorization to use the device with Bluetooth wireless technology prior to
turning on the equipment.
