en.avm.de/guide

Radio and Electromagnetic Interference

Radio interference can be generated by every device that emits elec

tromagnetic signals. With so many radio waves from transmitting and

receiving devices, interference can occur when radio waves overlap.

General Remarks

...............................................................................................

9FRITZ!Box7590

•

Do not use the FRITZ!Box in places where the use of radio devices

is prohibited.

•

Follow any instructions to switch off radio devices – especially in

hospitals, outpatient treatment centers, medical practices and

other medical facilities – in order to prevent interference with

sensitive medical equipment.

•

Consult your doctor and the manufacturer of your medical device

(pacemaker, hearing aid, electronically controlled implant, etc.) to

find out whether it could be affected by interference from your

FRITZ!Box.

•

If applicable, maintain the recommended minimum distance of

15cm recommended by the manufacturers of medical devices in

order to prevent malfunctions of your medical device.

Potentially Explosive Environments

Under unfavorable conditions, radio waves in the vicinity of explosive

environments can cause fires or explosions.

•

Do not install and operate your FRITZ!Box in the vicinity of flam

mable gases, explosive environments, areas in which the air con

tains chemicals or particles like grain, dust or metal powder, or in

the vicinity of detonation grounds.

•

In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, and in the

vicinity of detonation grounds, follow the instructions to switch off

electronic devices in order to prevent interference with detonation

and ignition systems.

General Remarks

...............................................................................................

10FRITZ!Box7590

Electromagnetic Fields

The FRITZ!Box receives and transmits radio waves during operation.

•

The FRITZ!Box was designed and constructed to comply with the

threshold values for the exposition of radio waves recommended

by the International Commission on Non-ionizing Radiation Pro

tection (ICNIRP).

•

This directive was formulated by independent scientific organiza

tions after regular and careful evaluation of scientific studies. It

includes a large safety margin in order to ensure the safety of all

persons, regardless of their age and health.

•

For devices mounted in a fixed position that have their own power

connection, like the FRITZ!Box, compliance with the minimum dis

tance of 20cm defined in the ICNIRP guideline has been certified.

The measurements were conducted in accordance with the

European EN50385 standard.
