connection, it is also possible for unauthorised third parties to receive data.
Information on activating data encryption is provided in the documentation
for your wireless component.
► If you wish to use your notebook 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 mains adapter can be operated with the
local mains voltage. If this is not 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 the country you will be travelling in as to
whether you may operate the wireless component integrated in your notebook there (see also ).
