• Illegal operation of this product by a malicious third-party
• Harm to or cessation of operation of this product by a malicious third-party

Please take adequate security measures. 

• Set passwords, and limit the users that are permitted login access.
• Make sure the password is as hard to guess as possible.
• Change the password periodically.

Do not give out your password even if directly asked by a third-party representing themselves as Panasonic Corporation. 

•  Use this product in a network where security is ensured by a firewall, etc.  

With a wireless LAN, information is exchanged between a PC, etc. and a wireless access point using radio waves in lieu of 
using a LAN cable. The advantage of a wireless connection is that it is possible to freely connect to the LAN as long as you 
are within the radio transmission range.
On the other hand, because the radio waves can travel through obstacles (such as walls) and are available everywhere 
within a given range, problems of the type listed below may occur if security-related settings are not made.

•  Surreptitious monitoring of transmitted data

       A malicious third-party may intentionally intercept and monitor transmitted data including the content of e-mail and 

personal information such as your ID, password, and/or credit card numbers.

•  Illegal system entry

       A malicious third-party may access your personal or corporate network without authorization and engage in the 

following type of behavior.

       • Retrieve personal and/or secret information (information leak)
       • Spread false information by impersonating a particular person (spoofing)
       • Overwrite intercepted communications and issue false data (tampering)
       • Spread harmful software such as a computer virus and crash your data and/or system (system crash)

Since most wireless LAN cards and wireless access points are equipped with security features to take care of these 
problems, you can reduce the possibility of these problems occurring when using this product by making the appropriate 
security settings for the wireless LAN product.

Some wireless LAN devices may not be set for security immediately after purchase. To decrease the possibility of 
occurrence of security problems, before using any wireless LAN devices, be absolutely sure to make all security-related 
settings according to the instructions given in the operation manuals supplied with them.
Depending on the specifications of the wireless LAN, a malicious third-party may be able to break security settings by 
special means.
If you cannot deal with security settings when using this product with a wireless LAN, please contact “Panasonic Projector 
Support Center.”

We recommend that you fully understand the potential problems when using this product with inadequate security and take 
the necessary measures. Implementation and responsibility for security is at the discretion of the user of this product.
