To protect from overheating, the CPU has an internal temperature sensor. If the
computer’s internal temperature rises to a certain level, the cooling fan is turned on

temperature by turning on the fan first, then if necessary, lowering the CPU speed.
Or, by lowering the CPU speed first, then if necessary, turning on the fan. Use the
Fan item of the Power Save Mode window in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
When the CPU temperature falls to a normal range, the fan is turned off and the
CPU operation returns to standard speed.
NOTE: If the CPU temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with
either setting, the system automatically shuts down to prevent damage.
Data in memory will be lost.
