The European Union WEEE (Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive Information

The European Union WEEE (Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive is intended to protect the quality of the environment and human health 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.

Pb, Hg, Cd

In the European Union, these symbols indicate that when the last end user wishes to discard this product, it must be sent to appropriate facilities for recovery and recycling. This Directive applies to EU member countries only and does not apply to end users in other countries such as the United States.

Although the initial emphasis is in Europe, Toshiba is already working with design engineers, suppliers, and other partners to determine appropriate worldwide product life cycle planning and end-of-life strategies for our products. Please contact your local government for applicable laws and regulations governing the disposal of this product.

Introduction

Welcome to the world of powerful and portable multimedia computers!

Some software may differ from its retail version (if available), and may not include user manuals or all program functionality.

Your computer model may be ENERGY STAR model you purchased is qualified, it is labeled with the ENERGY STAR applies.

Toshiba is a partner in the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) ENERGY STAR to meet the latest ENERGY STAR 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.

guidelines for energy

Introduction

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.

According to the EPA, a computer meeting the new ENERGY

STAR

specifications will use between 30% and 60% less energy depending on how it is used. If all U.S. households and businesses replaced old computers with new ENERGY STAR

qualified models, we would save more than $2 billion in energy costs each year and avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to nearly 3 million cars.

If every computer purchased by businesses this year met the new ENERGY STAR

requirements, businesses would save more than $1.6 billion over the lifetime of those models. That is equivalent to lighting 840 million square feet of U.S. commercial building space each year.

During 2008, Americans, with the help of ENERGY STAR

, saved about $19 billion dollars on their utility bills and avoided greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those from 29 million vehicles.

Program.
