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 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 Wireless LAN device prior
to turning on the equipment.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation
The radiated output power of the Wireless LAN is far below
the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the
Wireless LAN shall be used in such a manner that the
potential for human contact during normal operation is
minimized. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not
be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.

Specific Absorption Rate (IEEE)
Your device is designed to be in compliance with Radio Waves exposure
regulations and does not exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves
(radio frequency electromagnetic fields) in accordance with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC). A
substantial safety margin is set to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of health.
A unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption rate, or SAR is
utilized for the radio wave exposure guidelines. The SAR measurement
for devices does not exceed 1.6W/kg.
The actual SAR values for your device, while in use, are normally well
below the stated values. The operating power of your device is
automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the wireless
connection to increase system efficiency and to minimize interference
on the network. The lower the power output of the device the lower its
SAR value.
As stated by the World Health Organization, present scientific
information indicates no special precautions are needed for the use of
this device. To further reduce any exposure, limit your usage.
Turn Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth®, and Wireless WAN
Functionalities off for Cardiac Pacemakers
❖
Turn Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth®, and Wireless WAN
functionality off when you are near a person who may
have a cardiac pacemaker implant or other medical
electric device. Radio waves may affect pacemaker or
medical device operation, possibly resulting in serious
injury. Follow the instructions of your medical device
when using any Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth® or Wireless WAN
functionally.

File management tips
❖
Back up your files to external media on a regular basis.
Label the backup copies clearly and store them in a safe
place.
As you work with data it exists in the device’s memory.
This memory is called “volatile memory” because it is
only active while the device is turned on. When you turn
off the device, all the data remaining in volatile memory
is lost. To help avoid data loss, save your work to
Internal Storage or network storage. Your work (data) will
remain in internal storage to be called up when you need
it. As long as the internal storage remains healthy, your
data is relatively safe. However on occasion, hardware
failures do happen. If you experience a hardware failure,
your data could be lost. As an extra step to help avoid
data loss, back up your data. See “Backing up your
data” on page 42 for more information.
❖
Scan all new files for viruses.
This precaution is especially important for files you
Internet.
Toshiba’s online resources
Toshiba maintains a number of online sites to which you can
connect. These sites provide information about Toshiba
products, give help with technical questions and keep you

your tablet, although more slowly, by connecting the USB
cable to the USB port on your PC. Please make sure your PC
is turned ON while charging via USB. If your PC is turned
OFF, depending on PC specifications, the tablet battery may
discharge. We recommend that you do not use your tablet
while charging via USB as auto shut down may occur if the

Turning off the device

Turning off the device
It is a good idea to turn off your device when you are not
using it for a while.
If you are using the device for the first time, leave the device
plugged into a power source (even though the device is off)
to fully charge the battery.
Options for turning off the device
You have two options available for turning off the device:
Shut down and Sleep mode. Each option has its
advantages.
❖
Use Shut down if you will not be using the device for
several days or if you must turn off your device.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Before using the Shut down option
to turn off your device, backup your data.
If you change your mind and decide to continue working
after all, wait a few seconds before turning the device on
again.
NOTE
If you do not intend to use your device for a long period
of time, turn off the device, disconnect the power plug
dust-free location.
❖
Letting the screen time-out or enter into Sleep mode
allows the device to conserve power. When turning on
the device again, the system automatically returns to the
last screen viewed.
To change the screen time-out setting, see “Display
settings” on page 71.

down your tablet.

mode, see “Waking the tablet” on page 41. To change the
amount of time it takes for the display to darken, touch the

You can also place your tablet into Sleep mode by pressing
the Power button quickly.
Factors to consider when choosing Sleep mode:

While in Sleep mode, the device uses some battery
power.

you will lose data if the battery discharges completely
while the device is in Sleep mode.
❖
❖
Waking your device from Sleep mode takes less time
and consumes less battery power than restarting after
shutting down the device.
When starting up again, the device returns to the screen
last viewed.
If you place the device in Sleep mode and the battery
discharges fully, your unsaved data will be lost. Be sure
to backup your data first.

If Something Goes
Wrong
Some problems you may encounter when using your tablet
are relatively easy to identify and solve.
This chapter aims to help you solve many problems by
yourself. It covers the problems you are most likely to
encounter.
If all else fails, contact Toshiba. You will find information on
Toshiba’s support services at the end of this chapter.
Problems when you turn on the device
These problems may occur when you turn on the power.
The device will not start.
Make sure you attached the USB/AC adaptor and power
connector cord properly.
If you are using the USB/AC adaptor, check that the wall
outlet is working by plugging in another device, such as a
lamp.
Verify that the device is on by looking at the ON/OFF
indicator. If the indicator is glowing, the device is on. Also, try
turning the device off and then on.

Your device may have an application or resource conflict. Try

The operating system is not working
Once you are familiar with the Home screens and used to the
way the operating system responds, you can easily detect if
the it is not working correctly. For example:
❖
The operating system responds differently from the
normal routine
❖
❖
Screens and apps take a long time to load
The screen does not look right
Unless a hardware device has failed, problems usually occur
when you change the system in some way such as installing
a new app or adding an external device.
Most issues are solved by “recycling the system’ turning it
off then back on. If this does not resolve the issue, try
uninstalling the most recently installed application or
disconnecting the most recently installed accessory. If this
still does not resolve the issue, use the About tablet setting
to check for available system updates. For more information,

Power and the batteries
Power and the batteries
Your device receives its power through the USB/AC adaptor
and USB/power cable or from the system battery. Power
problems are interrelated. For example, a faulty USB/AC
adaptor or USB/power cable will neither power the device
nor recharge the batteries.
Here are some typical problems and how to solve them:
The USB/AC adaptor and USB/power cable work
correctly, but the battery will not charge.
The battery does not charge while the device is consuming
full power. Try turning off the device.
The battery may be too hot or too cold to charge properly. If
you think this is the probable cause, let the battery reach
room temperature and try again.
The device does not power on.
Let the battery discharge completely, then try charging it
again.
Check the power options. For more information, see
“Optimizing battery life” on page 28. Is your software using
the internal storage drive more? Is the display power set to
turn off automatically? Was the battery fully charged to begin
with? All these conditions affect how long the charge lasts.
If the device still does not power on, contact your service
provider immediately.
After a period of time, the battery will lose its ability to
perform at maximum capacity and will need to be replaced.
This is normal for all batteries.
For more information on maintaining battery power, see
“Charging the battery” on page 27.
Display problems

Small bright dots may appear on your screen display when
you turn on your device. Your display contains an extremely
large number of thin-film transistors (TFT) and is
manufactured using high-precision technology. Any small
bright dots that may appear on your display are an intrinsic
characteristic of the TFT manufacturing technology.
The screen does not appear as bright as it used to
be
Over a period of time, and depending on the usage of the
device, the brightness of the screen will deteriorate. This is
When the device is operated on battery power, the screen
will dim and you may not be able to increase the brightness
of the screen while on battery power.

If you need further assistance
❖
Verify that your device can detect access points or
routers. If it can detect a Wi-Fi® access point or router
then it may be a configuration issue.
❖
❖
Verify that the signal strength is good.
If another device is on the same network, verify that it
has network access, and can connect to the Internet. If,
for example, the other device cannot browse to a public
Web site, the ISP’s (Internet Service Provider) service
may be disrupted.
❖
❖
Verify that the Service Set Identifier (SSID), or network
name, is correct - i.e., that it matches the SSID assigned
to the access point you are attempting to connect
through. SSIDs are case-sensitive.
If you have enabled any security provisions (closed
system, MAC address filtering, Wired Equivalent Privacy
[WEP], etc.), check the access point vendor's Web site
for recent firmware upgrades. Problems with WEP keys,
in particular, are frequently addressed in new firmware
releases.
If you need further assistance
If you have followed the recommendations in this chapter
and are still having problems, you may need additional
technical assistance. This section contains the steps to take
to ask for help.
Before you contact Toshiba
Since some problems may be related to the operating
system or the program you are using, it is important to
investigate other sources of assistance first.
Try the following before you contact Toshiba:

Terms
The following terms may appear in this User’s Guide.
active-matrix display—A liquid crystal display (LCD) made
from an array of liquid crystal cells using active-matrix
technology. Also known as a “TFT display,” in its simplest
form there is one thin film transistor (TFT) for each cell. This
type of display works well with tablet devices because of its
shallow depth and high-quality color. Active-matrix displays
are viewable from wider angles than most passive-matrix
displays.
