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.pcsupport.glo-
bal.toshiba.com in the United States for more information.
Bluetooth™ and Wireless LAN devices operate within the same radio frequency
range and may interfere with one another. If you use Bluetooth™ and Wireless LAN
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 your Bluetooth™ or Wireless
LAN devices. Please contact Toshiba PC product support on web site http://

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 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.
