Safety Precautions

Please read the Instruction Manual for Safety and Comfort enclosed to the User's manual. It contains important safety information.

Using your computer aboard an aircraft

■Present aviation agency regulations and airline policies typically require that you turn off your computer, disable Wireless communication in BIOS setup, and turn off any wireless devices, before boarding an aircraft.

■While it is foreseeable that during certain non-critical phases of your flight, certain computer and/or wireless technologies might be permitted for use on board an aircraft, use of wireless WAN communication is normally prohibited. Since this computer is equipped with the wireless WAN feature, please be sure to disable Wireless communication in BIOS setup even if use of wireless LAN and/or Bluetooth™ is permitted. For this computer model, Wireless communication in BIOS setup controls all wireless communications and wireless LAN and/or Bluetooth™ cannot be selectively turned on without also turning on wireless WAN. If the Wireless communication is enabled in BIOS setup, wireless WAN radio waves may be transmitted.

■Unapproved use of computer and/or wireless communication might interfere with navigation and aircraft communication systems, possibly causing serious injury.
