What was posted previously is all correct. The "critical areas not protected" message to the pilots is simply a caution that the ILS signal could be interfered with because the CAT II and III hold lines are not being used and that they need to be vigilant and ready to take over manual control if the glide slope or localizer signal is degraded.
