Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution: To assure continued compliance, (example - use only shielded interface cables when
connecting to computer or peripheral devices) any changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator &
your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
WARNING: Only peripherals complying with the FCC class B limits
may be attached to this equipment. Operation with non-compliant
peripherals or peripherals not recommended by Toshiba is likely to
result in interference to radio and TV reception. Shielded cables must
be used between the external devices and the computer’s USB ports,
external monitor port, PS/2 keyboard port and PS/2 mouse port.
Changes or modifications made to this equipment, not expressly
approved by Toshiba or parties authorized by Toshiba could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Wireless Interoperability
The Toshiba Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card products are designed to be interoperable with any wireless LAN
product that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio technology, and is compliant to:
■ The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (Revision B), as defined and approved by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
■ The Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) certification as defined by the WECA Wireless Ethernet Compatibility
Alliance.
Wireless LAN and your Health
Wireless LAN products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy.
The level of energy emitted by Wireless LAN devices however is far much less than the electromagnetic
energy emitted by wireless devices like for example mobile phones.
Because Wireless LAN products operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations, Toshiba believes Wireless LAN is safe for use by consumers.
These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and result from
deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive
research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of Wireless LAN may be restricted by the proprietor of the
building or responsible representatives of the organization. These situations may for example include:
■ Using the Wireless LAN equipment on board of airplanes, or
■ In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is perceived or
identified as harmful.
If your are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a specific organization or
environment (e.g. airports), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the Wireless LAN device prior
to turning on the equipment.
