as well as the safety notes given below.
Please pay special attention to the sections in the manual marked
with the symbol on the left.
When connecting and disconnecting cables, observe the relevant
notes in this operating manual.
Read the information on the ambient conditions in the "Technical data",
Page 84 and "First-time setup of your device", Page 16 before preparing your
notebook for use and switching it on for the first time.
When cleaning the device, please observe the relevant notes in the
section "Cleaning the notebook", Page 15.

Additional safety notes for devices with
radio components
Radiocom ponent:WirelessLAN:Bluetooth,safetynotes
If a radio component (Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, UMTS) is integrated in your notebook, you
must be sure to observe the following safety notes when using your notebook:
• Switch off the radio components when you are in an aircraft or driving in a car.
• Switch off the radio components when you are in a hospital, an operating room or near a medical
electronics system. The transmitted radio waves can impair the operation of medical devices.
• Switch off the radio components when you let the device get near flammable
gases or into hazardous environments (e.g. petrol station, paintshops), as the
transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or a fire.
For information on how to switch radio components on and off, see chapter
"Switching the wireless components on and off", Page 47.

Energy saving
NotesEnergyEnergysaving
Switch the notebook off when it is not in use. Switch off external, connected devices if you
are not using them. If you use the energy saving functions, the notebook uses less energy.
You will then be able to work for longer before having to recharge the battery.
Energy efficiency is increased and the environmental impact is reduced.
You save money while protecting the environment.
Energy saving under Windows
►Make use of the power management features (see ""Using the power-management features",
Page 39").
Travelling with yournotebook
Mobileope rationNotesTransporta tionNotebook
Please observe the points listed below when travelling with your notebook.
Before you travel
►Back up important data stored on your hard disk.
NotebookTravel,noteboo k
►Switch off the radio component for data security reasons. With data traffic via a wireless
connection, it is also possible for unauthorised third parties to receive data.
Information on activating data encryption is provided in the documentation
for your radio 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 radio component integrated in
your notebook there (see also "CE marking", Page 87).
