Installing the base unit
You need to install the base unit before using this product. The installation methods differ 
depending on whether you are in a hotel room or at home.
LHotel: See the instructions “While you are in a hotel room” on page 30.
LHome: See the instructions “While you are at home” on page 32.
Note:
LThe AC adaptor and base unit may become warm during use, however this is not a sign 
of malfunction.
LYou need to connect a computer to the base unit in order to set up the base unit.
LYou can also connect your computer to the base unit via wireless LAN connection 
instead of using the Ethernet cable. To establish a wireless connection between your 
computer and the base unit, you need to set the wireless LAN configuration on your 
computer (The SSID and the Network key are shown on the included Wireless LAN 
sticker). See “Using your computer on a wireless LAN” on page 209 for details.
LUse only the included Panasonic AC adaptor PQWEWP1050 and AC cord 
PQJA10188Z. In UK, Germany and France, you need to use the appropriate AC cord(s) 
designed for use in your destination countries. See “Changing the AC cord while 
traveling:” for detail on page 17.
LLeave the AC adaptor cord plugged into the AC outlet the whole time. 
LThe unit will not work during a power failure.
