Schauen Sie zuerst die ersten Seiten der Anleitung durch, die Sie oben finden. Dort finden Sie die wichtigsten technischen Daten für Toshiba TECRA - auf diese Weise prüfen Sie, ob das Gerät Ihren Wünschen entspricht.

Die Informationen, die Sie über Toshiba TECRA erhalten, werden Ihnen bestimmt bei der Kaufentscheidung helfen.
Wenn Sie aber schon Toshiba TECRA besitzen, und noch keine Gelegenheit dazu hatten, die Bedienungsanleitung zu lesen, sollten Sie es aufgrund der oben beschriebenen Gründe machen.
