This manual contains supplementary instructions regarding the use of the computer. It explains the cases where the operation of the

computer differs from that in the Operating Instructions.

Your computer is equipped with Wireless LAN enabling you to communicate using radio frequencies.

Supplementary Instructions

for Wireless LAN

FCC Radio Frequency Interference Requirements

This product is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range.

FCC requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference

to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems.

High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can

cause interference with and /or damage this product.

Wireless LAN

If you use a wireless LAN, you can use a network without cable connections.

CAUTION

 Communication is performed through the wireless LAN antenna (A). Do not block the

antenna area with your hand or otherwise interfere with the passage of the radio

signals.

 Do not use the Fast User Switching function. The wireless LAN cannot be used.

NOTE

 The communication speeds and distances differ depending on the devices that

support the wireless LAN, the installation environment and other ambient conditions.

 One characteristic of radio waves is that their transmission rate tends to drop as the

communication distance increases. It is recommended that the devices supporting

the wireless LAN be used in close vicinity to each other.

 The rate may drop while a microwave oven is being used.

 Do not use wireless LAN on airplanes, in hospitals, or in other

locations where wireless LAN signals may affect the operation

of devices in the vicinity.

 If you intend to use the computer in the environments described above, turn the wireless

LAN off using the following method:

A Double-click or on the taskbar.

B Select your wireless LAN adaptor and select [General].

C Select [Off] for [Switch radio].

D Select [OK].

The icon will turn to .

• Do not select [Disable] using with the right button located on the

taskbar.
