Regulatory compliance statements Wireless guidance Warning Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless devices to be turned off while traveling in an airplane. 802.11b (also known as wireless Ethernet or Wifi) and Bluetooth communication devices are examples of devices that provide wireless communication. Warning In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless device may be restricted or eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen or flammable gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use of wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When in environments where you are uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices, ask the applicable authority for authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device. Low power, Radio transmitting type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication devices), may be present (embedded) in your notebook system. These devices may operate in the 2.4 GHz (such as 802.11b/g LAN and Bluetooth), 5.2 GHz (such as 802.11a LAN), and traditional cellular or PCS cellular bands (i.e. Cellular data modem). The following section is a general overview of considerations while operating a wireless device. Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for specific countries are listed in the specific country sections (or country group sections). The wireless devices in your system are only qualified for use in the countries identified by the Radio Approval Marks on the system rating label. If the country you will be using the wireless device in, is not listed, please contact your local Radio Approval agency for requirements. Wireless devices are closely regulated and use may not be allowed. The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be embedded in your notebook is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because the wireless devices (which may be embedded into your notebook) emit less energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, Gateway believes these devices are safe for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to minimize human contact during normal operation. 59

Wireless guidance
Warning
Radio frequency
wireless
communication can
interfere with
equipment on
commercial aircraft.
Current aviation
regulations require
wireless devices to be
turned off while
traveling in an
airplane. 802.11b (also
known as wireless
Ethernet or Wifi) and
Bluetooth
communication
devices are examples
of devices that provide
wireless
communication.
Warning
In environments
where the risk of
interference to other
devices or services is
harmful or perceived
as harmful, the option
to use a wireless device
may be restricted or
eliminated. Airports,
Hospitals, and Oxygen
or flammable gas
laden atmospheres
are limited examples
where use of wireless
devices may be
restricted or
eliminated. When in
environments where
you are uncertain of
the sanction to use
wireless devices, ask
the applicable
authority for
authorization prior to
use or turning on the
wireless device.
