About Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) Functions

• The wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) function of the product conforms to domestic wireless standards in Japan, and has been certified.
• The 2.4GHz band used by wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) devices is used by various other devices. For this reason, the communication speed and connectable range may be decreased, or disconnection may occur, due to interference from other devices.
• Do not use this product in places where electromagnetic waves are generated or near electric products, AV and OA equipment, or other magnetized devices.
• Subjecting this product to magnetic or electrical noise might increase noise and prevent it from performing communications. (This product is particularly susceptible to noise when it is used near a microwave oven.)
• Using this 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 or if the same channel is being used.
• The communication speed and connectable range vary depending on the distance between communication devices, obstacles and the devices that are connected.

2.4GHz band precautions
Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) function of this product uses 2.4GHz band. In this frequency band, other similar wireless stations, in-plant wireless
stations for mobile unit identification that require a license to use, such as factory production lines, specific small power wireless stations
that do not require licenses, amateur wireless stations (collectively called “other wireless stations” from here on) are operated in addition to
home electrical appliances such as microwave ovens, devices for industrial, scientific and medical devices.

1. Before using this 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 this product and “other wireless stations”, immediately either relocate this product or stop operation of the device (stop the emission of radio waves).
3. If you are unclear on any points or are troubled by anything, contact the telecommunications carrier to whom you are subscribed.

◎ The connections between this product and all other wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) devices have not been confirmed. Therefore, connections with all wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) devices are not guaranteed.
◎ Although the product’s security functions that serve as a measure of security during wireless communicating conform to the standard specifications of wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®), they may not offer enough security, depending on the usage environment and settings. Be careful
when doing data communication using the 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 at your discretion and responsibility.
◎ The Company assumes no responsibility for leakage of data or information that may occur during wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) communication. Wireless LAN (Wi- Fi®) function of this product uses 2.4GHz frequency band.

◦Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi®) function: 2.4DS/OF4
This product uses the 2.4GHz band. DS-SS, OFDM, and OFDMA are used as the modulation schemes. The interference distance is about 40 m or less.

About Harmonic Current Regulations
The product complies with the Harmonic Current Regulations JIS C 61000-3-2.

• Compliant because power consumption is less than 75 W.

About the PIN code
■ PIN code

• To prevent unauthorized use of the SIM card by a third party, you can set the product to require a PIN code entry every time the power is turned on.
  You also need to enter a PIN code when setting whether the PIN code entry is required.

• If the PIN code is incorrectly entered three times consecutively, the PIN code will be locked. You can unlock the PIN code using a PIN
  lock cancellation code (PUK code).

• The PIN code is “1234” and entry is set to “Disable” at the time of purchase. You can change the PIN code to any four- to eight-digit number, and set entry to “Enable” as necessary.
  If you set the PIN code to “Enable”, be sure to change the PIN code to your own number before using the product.

■PIN lock cancellation code (PUK code)

• In case the PIN code is locked, you can unlock it by entering the PIN lock cancellation code (PUK code).

• The PIN lock cancellation code (PUK code) is an eight-digit number preset at the time of purchase, which is printed on the back side
  of the plastic card on which your SIM card is attached.

• After entering the PIN lock cancellation code (PUK code), you need to set a new PIN code.

• If the PIN lock cancellation code (PUK code) is incorrectly entered ten times consecutively, contact the telecommunications carrier to whom you are subscribed.

• The “PIN code” is not reset by initializing the product.

Precautions on data communication costs

• Because the product is designed to be constantly connected to the internet, it may communicate data automatically sometimes.
• If various settings are done on the product, communications are done via internet connections, which require a fee for data communications.
