Federal Communication Commis-

sion Interference Statement

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 pro-

vide reasonable protection against harmful interference 

in a residential installation. This equipment generates, 

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 recep-

tion, 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.

•  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit differ

-

ent from that to which the receiver is connected.

•  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV techni

-

cian for help.

Caution: 

Changes or modifications not expressly ap-

proved by HARMAN could void the user’s authority to op-

erate the equipment.

FCC AND IC INFORMATION FOR USERS

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and 

Industry Canada license-exempt RSS 210. Operation is 

subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device 

may not cause harmful interference; and (2) this device

ence that may cause undesired operation. 

FCC/IC Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC/IC RSS-102 radiation 

exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environ-

ment. This equipment should be installed and operated 

with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & 

your body.

For Products with Radio Re-

ceivers That Can Use an Ex-

ternal Antenna (USA ONLY):

CATV (Cable TV) or Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to 

this product, be certain that it is grounded so as to pro-

vide some protection against voltage surges and static 

charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code 

(NEC), ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with 

respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting 

structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna dis-

charge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of an-

tenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes 

and requirements of the grounding electrode. 

Note to CATV System Installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV (cable TV) 

system installer’s attention to article 820-40 of the NEC, 

which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in 

particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be con-

nected to the grounding system of the building, as close 

to the point of cable entry as possible.
