PC Card overheating Some PC cards can become hot with prolonged use. Overheating of a PC Card can result in errors or instability in the PC Card operation. Also be careful when you remove a PC Card that has been used for a long time. Mobile phone Use of mobile phones can interfere with the audio system. Computer operation is not impaired but it is recommended that a distance of 30cm be maintained between the computer and a mobile phone in use. LCD Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the computer, the brightness of the LCD screen will deteriorate. This is an intrinsic characteristic of LCD technology. Maximum brightness is only available when operating in AC power mode. Screen will dim when the computer is operated on battery power and you may not be able to increase the brightness of the screen. Central Processing Unit ("CPU") Performance Disclaimer: CPU performance in your computer product may vary from specifications under the following conditions: ■ use of certain external peripheral products ■ use of battery power instead of AC power ■ use of certain multimedia, computer generated graphics or video applications ■ use of standard telephone lines or low speed network connections ■ use of complex modeling software, such as high end computer aided design applications ■ use of several applications or functionalities simultaneously ■ use of computer in areas with low air pressure (high altitude > 1,000 meters or > 3,280 feet above sea level) ■ use of computer at temperatures outside the range of 5 ºC to 30 ºC (41ºF to 86 ºF) or > 25 ºC (77 ºF) at high altitude (all temperature references are approximate and may vary depending on the specific computer model-please refer to your PC documentation or visit the Toshiba website for detail at www.pcsupport.toshiba.com). CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design configuration. Under some conditions, your computer product may automatically shutdown. This is a normal protective feature designed to reduce the risk of lost data or damage to the product when used outside recommended conditions. TECRA A3/S2 xviii

characteristic of LCD technology.
Maximum brightness is only available when operating in AC power mode.
Screen will dim when the computer is operated on battery power and you
may not be able to increase the brightness of the screen.
Central Processing Unit (“CPU”) Performance Disclaimer:
CPU performance in your computer product may vary from specifications
under the following conditions:
use of certain external peripheral products
use of battery power instead of AC power
use of certain multimedia, computer generated graphics or video
applications
use of standard telephone lines or low speed network connections
use of complex modeling software, such as high end computer aided
design applications
use of several applications or functionalities simultaneously
use of computer in areas with low air pressure (high altitude > 1,000
meters or > 3,280 feet above sea level)
use of computer at temperatures outside the range of 5 ºC to 30 ºC (41ºF
to 86 ºF) or > 25 ºC (77 ºF) at high altitude (all temperature references
are approximate and may vary depending on the specific computer
model-please refer to your PC documentation or visit the Toshiba website
for detail at www.pcsupport.toshiba.com).
CPU performance may also vary from specifications due to design
configuration.
Under some conditions, your computer product may automatically shut-
down.
