Bluetooth wireless technology Interoperability
Bluetooth™ Cards from TOSHIBA are designed to be interoperable with any product with Bluetooth wireless technology that is based on
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) radio technology, and is compliant to:
Bluetooth Specification Ver.1.1, as defined and approved by The Bluetooth Special Interest Group.
Logo certification with Bluetooth wireless technology as defined by The Bluetooth Special interest Group.
CAUTIONS: 1. Bluetooth wireless technology is a new innovative technology, and TOSHIBA has not confirmed compatibility of its
Bluetooth™ products with all PCs and/or equipment using Bluetooth wireless technology other than TOSHIBA
portable computers.
Always use Bluetooth™ cards from TOSHIBA in order to enable wireless networks over two or more (up to a total
of seven) TOSHIBA portable computers using these cards. Please contact TOSHIBA PC product support on Web
site
http://www.toshiba-europe.com/computers/tnt/bluetooth.htm in Europe or
http://www.pc.support.global.toshiba.com in the United States for more information.
2. When you use Bluetooth™ cards from TOSHIBA close to 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN devices, Bluetooth transmissions
might slow down or cause errors. If you detect certain interference while you use Bluetooth™ cards from
TOSHIBA, always change the frequency, move your PC to the area outside of the interference range of 2.4 GHz
Wireless LAN devices (40 meters/43.74 yards or more) or stop transmitting from your PC. Please contact
TOSHIBA PC product support on Web site
http://www.toshiba-europe.com/computers/tnt/bluetooth.htm in Europe or
http://www.pc.support.global.toshiba.com in the United States for more information.
3. Bluetooth™ and WirelessLAN devices operate within the same radio
frequency range and may interfere with one another. If you use Bluetooth™ and
WirelessLAN devices simultaneously, you may occasionally experience a less
than optimal network performance or even lose your network connection.
If you should experience any such problem, immediately turn off either one of your
Bluetooth™ or WirelessLAN.

Bluetooth wireless technology and your Health
The products with Bluetooth wireless technology, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy
emitted by devices with Bluetooth wireless technology however is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like
for example mobile phones.
Because products with Bluetooth wireless technology operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations, TOSHIBA believes Bluetooth wireless technology is safe for use by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect
the consensus of the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels
- 2 -
and committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of Bluetooth wireless technology may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible
representatives of the organization. These situations may for example include:
Using the equipment with Bluetooth wireless technology 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 you 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 device with Bluetooth wireless technology prior to turning on the equipment.
