Security
Two advanced security mechanisms ensure a high level of security:
■
Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it impossible
to falsify the origin of a message.
■
Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy.
Enable/Disable Wireless communication with hot key
You can enable or disable Wireless communication (Wireless LAN and
Bluetooth) functions with hot keys (FN + F8). No transmissions are sent or
received when wireless communication is turned off.
■
Do not use the Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) or Bluetooth functionalities near a
microwave oven or in areas subject to radio interference or magnetic
fields. Interference from a microwave oven or other source can disrupt
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth operation.
■
Turn Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionalities off when near a person who
may have a cardiac pacemaker implant or other medical electric
device. Radio waves may affect pacemaker or medical device
operation, possibly resulting in serious injury. Follow the instruction of
your medical device when using any Wi-Fi or Bluetooth functionality.
■
Always turn off Wi-Fi or Bluetooth functionality if the computer is near
automatic control equipment or appliances such as automatic doors or
fire detectors. Radio waves can cause malfunction of such equipment,
possibly resulting in serious injury.
