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.
This computer is compatible with European Union Directive 
2002/95/EC, Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances 
in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS), which restricts use of 
lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE. 
Toshiba requires its computer component suppliers to meet RoHS 
requirements and verifies its suppliers’ commitment to meeting 
RoHS requirements by conducting component sampling inspections 
during the product design approval process.
