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 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 within 30 minutes and the display within 8 minutes of inactivity in AC power mode. TOSHIBA
recommends 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.
Products that earn the ENERGY STAR prevent greenhouse gas emissions by meeting strict energy
efficiency guidelines set by the US EPA and the EU Commission. 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.
