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
®
 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.
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.
