Ergonomic Considerations

You will be using your computer as a portable device in a variety of environments. Whenever possible, you should attempt

to take account of the following ergonomic considerations for both stationary and portable environments:

❑Position of your computer – Place the computer directly in front of you. Keep your forearms horizontal, with your wrists

in a neutral, comfortable position while using the keyboard or the pointing device. Let your upper arms hang naturally at

your sides. Take frequent breaks while using your computer. Excessive use of the computer may strain eyes, muscles, or

tendons.

❑Furniture and posture – Sit in a chair with good back support. Adjust the level of the chair so your feet are flat on the

floor. A footrest may make you more comfortable. Sit in a relaxed, upright posture and avoid slouching forward or leaning

far backwards.

Using the Optical Disc Drive

This unit is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. DualDiscs and some music discs encoded with copyright

protection technologies do not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Therefore, these discs may not be compatible with this unit.

When you buy pre-recorded or blank discs for use with your VAIO computer, be sure to read the notices on the disc package carefully to check both

playback and recording compatibility with your computer's optical disc drives. Sony does NOT guarantee the compatibility of VAIO optical disc drives

with discs that are not compliant with the official "CD," "DVD," or "Blu-ray Disc" standard. USING NON-COMPLIANT DISCS CAN CAUSE FATAL DA

TO YOUR VAIO COMPUTER OR CREATE SOFTWARE CONFLICTS AND CAUSE SYSTEM HANGING.

For inquiries about disc formats, contact the individual publisher of the pre-recorded disc or the manufacturer of the recordable disc.

✍

8 cm disc writing is not supported.

To play copyright protected Blu-ray Disc media continually, update the AACS key. The AACS key update requires Internet access.

As with other optical media devices, circumstances may limit compatibility or prevent Blu-ray Disc media playback. VAIO computers may not support

movie playback on packaged media recorded in AVC or VC1 formats at high bit rates.

Region settings are required for some contents of DVD and BD-ROM Disc media. If the region setting on the optical disc drive does not match the

region coding on the disc, playback is not possible.

Unless your external display is compliant with the High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) standard, you cannot play or view the contents

of copyright protected Blu-ray Disc media.

Some content may restrict video output to standard definition or prohibit analog video output. When you output video signals through digital

connections, such as an HDMI connection or a DVI connection, it is strongly recommended that a digital HDCP compliant environment be implemented

for optimum compatibility and viewing quality.

Exit all memory-resident utility software before playing or writing a disc as it may cause the computer to malfunction.

Using the Wireless LAN

The Wireless LAN (WLAN) allows your computer to connect to a network through a wireless connection.

The WLAN uses the following IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n standard, which specifies the type of technology used.

See the specifications to find out about the configuration of your computer.

WLAN standard Frequency band Remarks

IEEE 802.11a 5 GHz -

IEEE 802.11b/g 2.4 GHz The IEEE 802.11g standard provides higher-speed communications than the IEEE 802.11b

standard.

IEEE 802.11n 5 GHz/2.4 GHz On models compliant with the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard, only the 2.4 GHz band can be used.

n N

Using Your VAIO Computer >

Using the Wireless LAN

Note on the data encryption

The WLAN standard includes the encryption methods: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), which is a security protocol, Wi-Fi

Protected Access 2 (WPA2), and Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). Proposed jointly by the IEEE and Wi-Fi Alliance, both WPA2

and WPA are specifications of standards based on interoperable security enhancements that increase the level of data

protection and access control for existing Wi-Fi networks. WPA is designed to be forward compatible with the IEEE 802.11i

specification. It utilizes the enhanced data encryption Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) in addition to user authentication

using 802.1X and Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). Data encryption protects the vulnerable wireless link between

clients and access points. Besides that, there are other typical LAN security mechanisms to ensure privacy, such as:

password protection, end-to-end encryption, virtual private networks, and authentication. WPA2, the second generation of

WPA, provides stronger data protection and network access control and is also designed to secure all versions of 802.11

devices, including 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, and 802.11n standards, multi-band and multi-mode. In addition, based on the

ratified IEEE 802.11i standard, WPA2 provides government grade security by implementing the National Institute of

Standards and Technology (NIST) FIPS 140-2 compliant AES encryption algorithm and 802.1X-based authentication. WPA2

is backward compatible with WPA.
