About the wireless LAN
• The wireless LAN function is available only in the countries which have acquired ra-
dio wave certification. Turn this function off in countries which do not have radio
wave certification. Ocean-going vessels that have radio wave certification can use
the wireless LAN function in any country that has acquired radio wave certification.
Vessels with radio wave certification that enter a country that does not have radio
wave certification may use the wireless LAN function only onboard the vessel. Avail-
able countries (as of January 2014): USA and EU.
• The communication rate and effective range for the wireless LAN can be affected
by the electromagnetic waves, interfering objects, or access point location.
• We strongly recommend using the wireless LAN with encrypted connection. Other-
wise unauthorized access by a third party can occur, which can cause loss of data
or system crash.
