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 try to correct the interference by one or more 
of the following measures:

 

– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

 

– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

IC statement

CAN ICES-3 (B)/NMB-3(B)
This device complies with Industry Canada's licence-exempt 
RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 
(1) This device may not cause interference; and (2) This 
device must accept any interference, including interference 
that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter 
may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum 
(or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry 
Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, 
the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the 
equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more 
than that necessary for successful communication.
This device complies with RSS-102 radiation exposure limits 
set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
