Precautions about Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
)
•
The wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) function of the product conforms to the
domestic standards of Japan, FCC standards and EC directives,
and has been certified.
•
Do not use the product in places where electromagnetic waves are
generated or near electric products, AV and OA equipment, or other
magnetized devices.
•
Subjecting the product to magnetic or electrical noise might increase
noise and prevent it from performing communications. (The product
is particularly susceptible to noise when it is used near a microwave
oven.)
•
Using the product near a TV, radio or similar appliance might cause
reception interference and disrupt TV images.
•
Searching might not be successful if there are multiple wireless LAN
(Wi-Fi
®
) access points near the product and the same channel is
being used.
■
2.4 GHz band wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) precautions
The frequencies used by the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) function of the
product is in the 2.4 GHz band. In the 2.4 GHz frequency band, in
addition to home electrical appliances such as microwave ovens and
industrial, scientific and medical devices, other similar wireless
stations, in-plant wireless stations for mobile unit identification that
require a license for use such as factory production lines, specific
small power wireless stations that do not require licenses, and
amateur wireless stations (collectively called “other wireless stations”
from here on) are operated.
1. Before using the product, make sure that “other wireless stations”
are not in operation nearby.
2. In the event that instances of radio wave interference have
occurred between the product and “other wireless stations”,
immediately either relocate the product or stop operation of the
device (stop emission of radio waves).
3. If you are unclear on any points or are troubled by anything, contact
an au shop or Customer Service Center.
◎
Connections between the product and all other Bluetooth
®
and
wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) devices have not been confirmed.
Therefore, connections with all Bluetooth
®
and wireless LAN
(Wi-Fi
®
) devices are not guaranteed.
◎
The product supports security features for wireless
communications that are compliant with the Bluetooth
®
and
wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) standard specifications, but the security
may not be sufficient depending on the usage environment and
configuration. Be careful when making data communication
using Bluetooth
®
or wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) function.
◎
Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) has the advantage that it can be freely
connected anywhere within the radio wave range, as it uses
radio waves for exchanging information. At the same time, there
is a risk that a malicious third party may obtain unauthorized
access if security settings have not been configured. You are
recommended to configure security settings before using
wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) at your decision and responsibility.
◎
The Company assumes no responsibility for leakage of data or
information that may occur during Bluetooth
®
/wireless LAN
(Wi-Fi
®
) communication.
◎
Since Bluetooth
®
and wireless LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) functions use the
same frequency band, using the both functions at the same time
may cause radio wave interference resulting in decreased
communication speed or disconnection from the network. If
connection fails, stop using either of the Bluetooth
®
and wireless
LAN (Wi-Fi
®
) functions.
