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 wire less 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 yo u let the device get n ear flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petro l station, paintshops), as the
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a fire.
