Important Safety Information
Wireless LAN
(wireless network - abbreviation = WLAN)
Your notebook may contain a Wireless LAN module (optional). This module allows you to set
up a wireless-based network, and to connect with an existing wireless network. It works
according to the IEEE802.11a+b+g standard.
WLAN technology allows users to set up wireless connections inside a local area (e.g. in
a company or campus building, or in a public building such as an airport). WLANs can be
used in temporary offices, in locations where it is not possible to set up extensive cable
installations, or to extend an existing LAN so that users in different parts of a building can
work at different times.
There are two different ways to operate a WLAN.
In fixed WLANs, wireless stations (devices with radio network cards or external modems)
set up connections with wireless access points, which act as bridges between the stations
and the existing network backbone. In Peer-to-Peer (ad hoc) WLANs several users can set
up a temporary network within a limited area such as a conference room, without using
access points, and providing there is no need to use network resources.
In 1997 the IEEE confirmed the standard 802.11 for WLANs; this set a data transfer rate
of 1 to 2 Mbit/s (Megabits per second). Under 802.11a+b+g, the new governing standard,
the maximum data transfer rate is 54 Mbps over a frequency band of
hertz).

Additional safety notes for units with wireless LAN
A wireless LAN component is integrated into your Notebook. For this reason you must make
sure that you comply with the following notes on safety:
• Switch off the Notebook when you are in an aircraft or
while driving a car.
• If you are in a hospital, an operating room or close to an
electronic medical system, switch off the wireless compo
nents in the Notebook! The radio waves which are transmitted could disrupt the working of the medical equipment.
• Keep the Notebook at least 20 cm away from a heart pace
maker, otherwise there is a risk that the radio waves could
disrupt the normal working of the pacemaker.
• The radio waves which are transmitted could give rise to
interference noise in hearing aids.
• When its radio components are switched on, do not place
the Notebook close to inflammable gases or in an environ
ment which could be at risk of explosion (e.g. paint shop),
since the radio waves which are transmitted could set of a
fire or an explosion.
• The range of the wireless connection depends on the envi
ronmental and other ambient conditions.
• When transferring data over a wireless connection, unau
thorized Third Parties can also receive the data.
