Introduction

Freecom external hard drives have been designed to be compact, light-weight and extremely
portable, so that they can be easily carried and used almost anywhere.
Proper use of a Freecom external hard drive does not pose any health hazards. When used in
accordance with the safety instructions in this manual they also offer an alternative to external
hard drive users who wish to avoid exposure to the additional sources of electromagnetic
field (EMF) emission that may be present in PCs.
The safety instructions in this manual should therefore always be followed, to avoid the adverse
consequences that could otherwise result from the misuse of Freecom external hard drive
under sub-optimum field conditions.
Avoidance of exposure to EMF emissions
Note
1. Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) Emissions (50 Hz (Europe) or 60 Hz (US))
Since Freecom external hard drives are low-voltage direct current (DC) devices, this external
hard drive emits no EMF (electromagnetic field) energy in the ELF range when it is being
powered by its USB bus power.
2. Radio Frequency (RF) Emissions
a. External hard drives generate digital timing pulses at frequencies within the RF range, and
consequently may emit minute levels of stray EMF emissions in the RF range.
