ENERGY STAR

Program

Your computer model may be ENERGY STAR

Compliant. If the model

you purchased is compliant, 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.

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.
