data or damage to the product when used outside recommended 

conditions. To avoid risk of lost data, always make back-up copies of data 

by periodically storing it on an external storage medium. For optimum 

performance, use your computer product only under recommended 

conditions. Read additional restrictions in your product documentation. 

Contact Toshiba technical service and support, refer to Troubleshooting 

section in Chapter 6 Troubleshooting for more information.

Part of the main system memory may be used by the graphics system for 

graphics performance and therefore reduce the amount of main system 

memory available for other computing activities. The amount of main 

system memory allocated to support graphics may vary depending on the 

graphics system, applications utilized, system memory size and other 

factors. 

Battery life may vary considerably depending on product model, 

configuration, applications, power management settings and features 

utilized, as well as the natural performance variations produced by the 

design of individual components. Published battery life numbers are 

achieved on select models and configurations tested by Toshiba at the time 

of publication. Recharge time varies depending on usage. Battery may not 

charge while computer is consuming full power. 
After going through many charge and discharge cycles, the battery will lose 

its ability to perform at maximum capacity and will need to be replaced. 

This is a normal phenomenon for all batteries. To purchase a new battery 

pack, see the accessories information that is shipped with your computer.

1 Gigabyte (GB) means 10

9

 = 1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. The 

computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using 
powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 2

30

 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and 

therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also 

be less if the product includes one or more pre-installed operating systems, 

such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software 

applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
