Additional safety notes for devices with
radio components
Radiocomponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes
If a radio component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, LTE) is integrated in your notebook, you must
be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:
•Switch off the radio components 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 components when you let the device get near flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petro l 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

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 o ff the wireless 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 wireless 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 a re travelling abroad, 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.
► Contact the rele vant authorities of the country you will be travelling in as to
whether you may operate the radio component integrated into your notebook
computer. Please observe the additional safety instructions for devices with radio
components, found in the handbook “Safety/formalities”.
Notebook: transporting
Protect the notebook from severe shocks and extreme temperatures
(e.g. direct sunlight in a car).
► Switch the notebook off.
► Unplug the mains adap ter and all external devices from the power socket.
► Disconnect the mains adapter cable and the data cables for all external devices.
► Close the LCD screen.
► To protect against damaging jolts and bumps, use a notebook carrying
case to transport your notebook.

Cleaning the notebook
Do not clean any interior parts yourself; leave this job to a service technician.
Only use cleaning products designed for computers. Normal household
cleaners and polishes can damage the markings on the keyboard and the
device, the paintwork or the notebook itself.
Ensure that no liquid enters the notebook.

Selecting a location
SelectingalocationDeviceMainsadapter
Select a suitable location for the device before setting it up. F ollow
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 / 3.94 inches away from the device
and its mains adapter to ensure adequa te 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.

LCDscreenNotes
High-quality LCD screens (TFT) are installed in Fujitsu notebooks. For technical rea sons,
these screens are manufactured for a certain resolution. An optimum and sharp image can
only be ensured with the resolution intended for the particular screen. A screen resolution
which d iffers from the specification can result in an unclear picture.
The resolution of your notebook’s screen is optimally set at the factory.
With the present standards of production technolog y, absolutely flawless screen images
cannot be guaranteed. There may b e a few constantly light or dark pixels (picture
elements) on the screen. The maximum permitted number of such faulty pixels is
specified in the international standard ISO 9241-307 (Class II).
Example:
A screen with an HD re solution of 1366 x 768 has 1366 x 768 = 1049088 pixels. Each pixel consists
of three subpixels (red, green and blue), making a total of about 3 million subpixels. According to ISO
9241-307 (class II), a maximum of 2 light and 2 dark pixels and in addition 5 light or 10 dark subpixels
or an equivalent mix (1 light subpixel counts as 2 dark subpixels) are allow ed to be defective.

Select a suitable location for the Port Replicator before setting it up.
Follow the instructions below when doing so:
•Never place the port replicator on a soft surface (e.g. carpeting, upholstered furniture, bed).
This can block the air vents of the notebook and cause overheating and damage.
•Place the port replicator on a stable, flat and non-slip surface. Please note that the
port replicator’s rubber feet may mark certain types of surface.
•Never place the port replicator and the mains adapter on a heat-sensitive surface.
•Do not expose the port replicator to extreme environmental conditions.
Protect the port replicator from dust, humidity and heat.
