Wi-Fi®Function and NFC Function

■■Using the camera as a wireless LAN device

When using equipment or computer systems that require more reliable security than wireless LAN devices, ensure that the appropriate measures are taken for safety designs and defects for the systems used. Leica Camera AG will not take any responsibility for any damage that arises when using the camera for any purpose other than as a wireless LAN device.

■■The use of the Wi-Fi function of this camera is presumed to be in countries where this camera is sold

■■There is the risk that data sent and received via radio transmission may be intercepted by a third party

■■Do not use the camera in areas with magnetic fields, static electricity or interference such as near microwave ovens. Radio transmission may not reach the camera.

••Using the camera near devices such as microwave ovens or cordless telephones that use the 2.4GHz radio wave band may cause a decrease in performance in both devices.

■■Do not connect to the wireless network you are not authorized to use

When the camera utilizes its Wi-Fi function, wireless networks will be searched automatically. When this happens, wireless networks that you are not authorized to use (SSID∗) may be displayed, however do not attempt to connect to the network as it may be considered as unauthorized access.

∗SSID refers to the name that is used to identify a network over a wireless LAN connection. If the SSID matches for both devices, transmission is possible.

■■Before Use

••To use the Wi-Fi function on this camera, a wireless access point or a destination device equipped with the wireless LAN function is required.

■■The camera is compatible with NFC

Using the NFC (Near Field Communication) function, the camera and a smartphone can easily exchange the information needed to establish a Wi-Fi connection.
