Bluetooth option, the data transmission speed can be delayed and the performance of the wireless feature
can be degraded.

Using the NFC connection

NFC is a high-frequency and short-range wireless communications technology. Depending on the
model, your computer comes with an NFC card. By using the NFC feature, you can establish the radio
communications between your computer and another NFC-enabled device over a distance no more than a
few centimeters.
Before you use the NFC feature, ensure that the NFC feature is enabled. To enable the NFC feature on
the Windows 8 operating system, do the following:
1. From the Start screen, click Lenovo Settings ➙ Mobile Hotspot.
2. In the Enable NFC area, slide to the right to enable the NFC feature.
You can use the NFC feature with NFC supported programs, such as Lenovo QuickDisplay program, the
Lenovo QuickControl program, or the Lenovo QuickCast program.

Connecting a projector or an external monitor

This topic provides information about connecting a projector or an external monitor.
Using an external monitor
Note: When you connect an external monitor, a video interface cable with a ferrite core is required.
Your computer can support a maximum video resolution of up to 1920x1200 (with an external monitor
connected to the VGA connector) or up to 2560x1600 (with an external monitor connected to the mini
DisplayPort connector), provided that the external monitor also supports that resolution. For more
information about the external monitor, refer to the manuals provided with the external monitor.
You can set any resolution for either the computer display or the external monitor. When you use both at the
same time, the resolution of both is the same. If you set a higher resolution for the computer display, you
can see only part of the screen at a time. You can see other parts by moving the image with the TrackPoint
pointing device or another pointing device.
