household appliances (microwave ovens) and industrial/
scientific/medical equipment as well as by in-place radio
stations (requiring a license) and specific low-power radio
stations (not requiring a license) for mobile identification
as used in production lines, and by amateur radio stations
(requiring a license).
1. Before using Bluetooth
®
/Wi-Fi (wireless LAN), check that
no in-place radio stations for mobile identification, specific
low-power radio stations, or amateur radio stations are in
operation nearby.
2. If use of handset Bluetooth
®
/Wi-Fi (wireless LAN) causes
interference with regard to an in-place radio stations for
mobile identification, immediately change the usage frequency,
or discontinue use and take measures to avoid interference
(putting a partition in place, etc.).

Bluetooth
®
and Wi-Fi (Wireless LAN)-
Compatible Devices and Interference
Bluetooth
®
and Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n/ax) use the same
frequency band (2.4 GHz). Using Bluetooth
®
near a Wi-Fi
(wireless LAN) access point or device may cause interference
and affect communication speed connection. If this occurs,
either distance handset and the device connecting by
Bluetooth
®
, or turn off the Wi-Fi (wireless LAN) device so as
to prevent interference.
Wi-Fi (Wireless LAN)

(electrical products, AV/OA equipment, etc.) or where there is
an electromagnetic field.
・The effect of magnetism and electrical noise may cause
increased noise and prevent communication. Handset may in
particular be affected by a microwave oven.
・Proximity to a TV, radio, etc. can block reception and cause
a snowy TV screen.
・If multiple Wi-Fi (wireless LAN) access points using the
same channel are in proximity, handset may not detect
access points correctly.
