Important notes
Additional safety notes for devices with
wireless components
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 not ebook:
•Switch off the wireless components when 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.
