Additional safety notes for devices with wireless components
Wirelesscomponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes
If a wireless component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS, LTE) is incorporated into your notebook,
you must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:
• Switch off the wireless compone nts w hen you are in an aircraft or driving in a car.
• Switch off the wireless components when you are in a hospital, an operating
room or near a medical electronics system. The transmitted radio waves
can impair the operation of medical devices.
• Switch off the wireless components when you let the device get near flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petrol station, paintshops), as the
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a fire.
For information on how to switch wireless components on and off, see chapter

First-time setup of your device
Selecting a location
SelectingalocationDeviceMainsadapter
Select a suitable location for the device before setting it up. Follow
the instructions below when doing so:
• Never place the device or the mains adapter on a heat-sensitive surface.
The surface could be dama ged as a result.
• Never place the device on a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered furniture,
bed). This can block the air vents and cause overheating and da mage.
• The underside of the device heats up during normal operation. Prolonged contact
with the skin may become unpleasant or even result in burns.
• Place the device on a stable, flat, non-slippery surface. Please note that the
rubber feet of the device may mark certain types of delicate surfaces.
• Keep other objects at least 100 mm / 3.94 inches away from the device
and its mains adapter to ensure adequate ventilation.
• Never cover the ventilation slots of the device .
• Do not expose the device to extreme environmental conditions. Protect
the device from dust, humidity, and heat.
