FCC INFORMATION 

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant 
to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful 
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, 
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction 
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a 
residential area can cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the 
interference at his own expense.
