Federal Communications Commission (FCC) 

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits 
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against 
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment gen-
erates, 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 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 the 
receiver. 

− 

Connect the equipment onto 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. 

Shielded interconnect cables and a shielded AC power cable must 
be employed with this equipment to ensure compliance with the per-
tinent RF emission limits governing this device. Changes or 
modifications not expressly approved by the system's manufacturer 
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
