Additional safety notes for devices with
radio components
Radiocomponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes
If a radio component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS) is integrated in your notebook, you
must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:
• Switch off the radio compone nts when you are in an aircraft or driving in a car.
• Switch off the radio 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 radio compone nts 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 radio components on and off, see chapter
"
Switching the wireless components on and off", Page 39.

Important notes
Energy saving
NotesEnergyEnergysaving
Switch the notebook off when it is not in use. Switch off external, connected devices if you
are not using them. If you use the energy saving functions, the notebook uses less energy.
You will then be able to work for longer before having to recharge the battery.
Energy efficiency is increased and the enviro nmental impact is reduced.
You save money while protecting the environment.
Energy saving under Windows
► Make use of the power management features (see "Using the power-m anagement features",
Page 34).
Travelling with you
r notebook
MobileoperationNotesTransportati onNotebook
Please observe the points listed below when travelling with your notebook.
Before you travel
► Back up important data stored on your hard disk.
NotebookTravel,notebook
► Switch off the radio component for data security reasons. With data traffic via a wireless
connection, it is also possible for unauthorised third parties to receive data.
Information on activating data encryption is provided in the documentation
for your radio component.
► If you wish to use your notebook during a flight, first check with the flight
attendants if it is OK to do so.
When travelling in other countries
► If you are travelling a broad, check that the mains adapter can be operated with the
local mains voltage. If this is not the case, obtain the appropriate mains adapter for
your notebook. Do not use any other voltage converter!
► Check whether the local mains voltage and the power cable are compatible. If this is
not the case, buy a power cable that matches the local conditions.
► Enquire with the corresponding go vernment office of the country you will be
travelling in as to whether you may opera te the radio component integrated in
your note book there (see also "
CE marking", Page 68).
Fujitsu 13

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 damaged 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 damage.
• 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 away from the device and its
mains adapter to ensure adequate ventilation.
• Never cover the ventilation slots o f the device.
• Do not expose the device to extreme environmental conditions. Protect
the device from dust, humidity, and heat.
