Introduction 11 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. Visit http://www.energystar.gov or http://www.energystar.gov/powermanagement for more information regarding the ENERGY STAR® 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.
