tionary radio transmitters at all frequencies must be less than the compliance level.
b Interference is possible in the environment of devices marked with the following graphic symbol:

Explanation re a and b:
a The field strength of stationary transmitters including the base stations of mobile phones and mobile based radios, amateur radio

stations, AM and FM radio and TV broadcasting transmitters cannot be theoretically and precisely predetermined. In order to deter-
mine the electromagnetic environment with regard to stationary transmitters, a study of the location should be considered. If the
field strength measured at the location where the above-mentioned equipment is used exceeds the above-mentioned compliance
levels, the ceiling support system should be monitored because additional measures might be required such as modified orienta-
tion or a different location.
b The field strength in the 150 kHz to 80 MHz frequency range should be less than 3 V/m.

Notes:
For 80 MHz and 800 MHz the higher value applies.
These guidelines might not be applicable in all cases. The propagation of electromagnetic quantities is influenced by the absorption
and reflection of buildings, items and human beings..
