Installation of the approved wireless module

If no integrated wireless WAN PCI Express Mini Card has been preinstalled in your ThinkPad computer, you can install one, provided by Lenovo as an option. Plug the wireless card option into the PCI Express Mini Card slot. For the installation procedure, see the “Installing and replacing the PCI Express Mini Card for wireless WAN connection” section in the user guide for your computer.

Attention: The ThinkPad computers contain an authentication mechanism. If you install an unauthorized wireless WAN PCI Express Mini Card that is not approved for use in your ThinkPad computer, the computer will not start, but only displays an error message and emits beeps.

RF safety compliance

The radiated energy from the antenna connected to the wireless WAN adapter conforms to the FCC limit of the SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) requirement regarding 47 CFR Part 2 section 1093, when the computer was tested in the conventional orientation.

The transmission antenna for the PCI Express Mini Card is located in the LCD cover. See “Location of the UltraConnectTM wireless antennas” in the user guide for your computer.

Emergency calls
