Additional safety notes for devices with

radio components

Radiocom pon ent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes

If a radio component (Wire less LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS) 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 yo u 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.

For information on how to switch radio components on and off, see chapter

Switching the wireless component s on and off", Pag e 41.

Importan t notes

Energy saving

NotesEnergyEnergysaving

Switch the notebook off when it is not in use. Switch off external, conn ecte d devices if you

are not using them. If you use the energy saving functions, the no tebook uses less energy.

You will then be able to work for longer before having to recharge the battery.

Energy efﬁciency is increased a nd the environmental impact is reduced.

You save m oney while protecting the environment.

Energy saving under Windows

► Make use of the power management features (see "Using the power-management features ",

Pag e 35 ).

Travelling with you

Mobileope rationNotesTransp ortati onNotebook

Please observe the points listed below when travelling with your notebook.

Before you travel

► Back up important data stored on your hard disk.

NotebookTravel,noteboo k

► Switch off the radio component for data security reasons. With data trafﬁc via a wireless

connection, it is also po ssible for unauthorised third parties to receive data.

Information on activating data encryption is provided in the docu m entation

for your radio component.

► If you wish to use your noteboo k during a ﬂight, ﬁrst check with the ﬂight

attendants if it is OK to do so.

When travelling in other countries

► If you are travelling abroad, check that the m ains adapter can be operated with the

local mains voltage. If this is n o t 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.

► Enquire with the corresponding government ofﬁce of t he country you will be

travelling in as to whether you may operate the radio compon ent integrated in

your notebook there (see also "

CE marking", Page 72).
