15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in 
a residential installation. This equipment generates and uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not 
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio 
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If 
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by 
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to correct the interference by one or more of the

• increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver

• connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected

• consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Hewlett-Packard’s FCC Compliance Tests were conducted with HP-supported peripheral devices and HP 
shielded cables, such as those you receive with your system. Changes or modifications not expressly approved
