Wireless Guidance
Low power, Radio LAN type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication devices), 
operating in the 2.4 GHz Band, may be present (embedded) in your notebook system. 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.
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless device and the 
body, for use of a wireless device near the body (this does not include extremities) is typical. This 
device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from the body when wireless devices are on 
and transmitting.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of common restrictions 
are listed below:
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.
