What to watch out for
Safety Instructions When working with the FRITZ!Box Fon 5113, observe the
following security instructions in order to protect yourself
and the FRITZ!Box from harm.
Do not install the FRITZ!Box during an electrical
storm.
Disconnect FRITZ!Box from the power supply during
electrical storms.
Never let liquids get inside the FRITZ!Box. Otherwise,
electric shocks or short circuits may result.
The FRITZ!Box is intended for indoor use only.
Do not open the FRITZ!Box housing. The device con-
tains hazardous components and should only be
opened by authorized repair technicians.
Handling the
FRITZ!Box
You can either place FRITZ!Box on a horizontal surface or
mount it on a wall. Please note the following:
Place or hang the FRITZ!Box in a dry location that is
free of dust and protected from direct sunlight.
Do not place FRITZ!Box on excessively heat-sensitive
surfaces, as the base of the device can heat up dur-
ing normal operation.
Make sure that the ventilation slits are unobstructed.
For this reason the FRITZ!Box should not be placed on
a carpet or on upholstered furniture. The ventilation
slits provide for air cooling of the FRITZ!Box.
When connecting FRITZ!Box to your computer using
the network, remember to take the length of the ca-
